lyrics

You wander round your home
looking for a comfort zone
and wonder why?
In order to protect
the image you try to project
you live a lie

You turn to the mirror that hangs on your wall
a face coming clearer you don’t know at all
a paler reflection of your former self
a closer inspection reveals someone else

Into the great unknown
don’t even know what part to play
out of your comfort zone
there’s only love and hate today

The meaning of the word has changed
you say - something so absurd, so real, so strange

Look over your shoulder as if in a dream
your body grows colder, don’t know what it means
so long you’ve been shut down content in your skin
it comes like a breakdown without and within

And when the cold wind blows
you’ll find a space to hide away
Under the rocks and stones
there’ll be no place for you to stay
Into the great unknown
don’t even know what part to play
out of your comfort zone
there’s only love and hate today

The meaning of the word has changed
you say - something so absurd, so real, so strange

Wonderful new Music from a lifelong favourite, always joyful and soulful. A unique voice on the Rhodes electric piano, a Master of the synthesizer and of course those lush vocals! Warmly recommended without hesitation to new fans and long time followers alike. Superb bass work from the very lovely and supremely talented Yolanda Charles! ❤️🎵 Really, REALLY looking forward to the Jazz Cafe gig on 16 December 2023! Thank you, Mike! 🙏🏻 Renato Bass Lover
