Almost...

This way that way, left or right
The wind blows, the smoke is light
Wanting to leave a trail behind
Running in circles, nothing bright
You got to see it twist and roll
Seems almost like it knows, yes almost as if in control...

Have you seen the butterfly
Sure is pretty,sure does try
Remembers nothing of the nothingness
All these colors, make me cry
You got to see it twist and roll
Seems almost like it knows, yes almost as if in control...

Must be laughing, behind closed doors
Though I wonder still if it's me or he knows
Maybe a roll, poker, might even be chess
High up above this is how it goes
"You got to see it twist and roll
Seems almost like it knows, yes almost as if in control..."

You must remember this...

I watched Casablanca a few days back, thought it was an awesome movie. Great actors, great(if not the greatest) dialogs, a love struggle woven beautifully with the struggle of war, and some great jazz. But I don't want to talk about the movie here, it's this song "As time goes by", which I really liked, and when I searched for the original, it was even better with the complete lyrics. The lyrics are amazing and the music is all what good jazz should be made of. Am posting the lyrics here, if you can, do listen to the song....enjoy!

"This day and age we're living in
Gives cause for apprehension
With speed and new invention
And things like fourth dimension.

Yet we get a trifle weary
With Mr. Einstein's theory.
So we must get down to earth at times
Relax relieve the tension

And no matter what the progress
Or what may yet be proved
The simple facts of life are such
They cannot be removed.

You must remember this
A kiss is just a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh.
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by.

And when two lovers woo
They still say, "I love you."
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by.

Moonlight and love songs
Never out of date.
Hearts full of passion
Jealousy and hate.
Woman needs man
And man must have his mate
That no one can deny.

It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die.
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by.

Oh yes, the world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by."
