about

Took a poem, I had written in college and put music to it. A unique lyric because it does not have a pattern of rhyme that is usually in the typical song lyric. Instead the prose kind of unfurls as the song goes along. One of my favorite Up in the Air songs.

lyrics

Warm Spot
by John Beccia

Well there’s a warm spot.........in the mean of you
And if we touch...................it grows
Just like a small ball of clay.......made into a universe
Just like the tiny grains of sand that make the ever-changing ocean shore
Together, you and I grow in and out from here
Together, like the sky will never disappear
...............................in the mean of you.............................in the mean of you


Out of the small call............of today we go
Into the years......................of love
Out of the tall wall...............of all these promises
That get too hard to hold or carry so we leave them and we just go on
Together, you and I grow out from where we are
Together, you and I are like a shining star
................................in the mean of you.............................in the mean of you


Well, there’s a warm spot..........where you and I will go
Leaving this cold world.............. far behind
Into the wonder.............where past and future meet
And is that you or me that’s growing out of you or me that’s growing out of you or me? - (4 times)

And is that you or me that’s growing out of you or me that’s growing out of you or me? - (3 times)
And is that you or me that’s growing out of you or me that’s growing out of you or me?
And can we touch?
