Old school class and full of brass commanding attention with her eyes A princess who tumbled from the stars who phoenix-like rose again Flaming fancy fingered magic on ivory burned bright to the last note A legend who lived life on his own terms abrading our ears with his throaty roar A giant though in stature small who;s voice and horns pierced us all forever they will soar together among the stars may they alight as one on the silver mountain
if we never fly if we never dream of life in other directions if we never tilt our hats by Johnny’s tomb if we never smoke Cuban cigars and tango with Tom Waits if we never see each other again know that you were enough to make me happy
