The Eternal Dynamic

AI music generated to my lyrics…



The Eternal Dynamic
Adam and Eve to the present
Patterns of human interaction
Boys and girls together yet apart

Getting together with old schoolmates
The old back-and-forth begins anew
A bluff, a challenge, arguments
But made with twinkling eyes…

Oh!

As if you had only stepped out for a minute
Rather than thirty or forty years
Had it really been that long
since you last spoke to each other

And so the facade goes up:
Hiding what you don't want others to know,
But what they do know, what you know
They know … you know they know.

Oh!

All of the joys and disappointments
you had with your first young lover
They defined you and kindled
Your first sparks of passion

You greet each other and talk
But crucial words remain unsaid
Words you couldn't say then
Words you won't say now

Oh!

A moment you share in a dark corner
With your old crush… face to face
Your eyes meet and and then you kiss!
You are both seventeen again

Her kiss is the same…
The memory returns in an instant
When you open your eyes
You are once more both sixty-one

She is smiling, she says, “I love you”
And you say “I love you” too
The words which couldn't be spoken
Are finally said, at last…

Oh!
