Different Strings - Robert Berry

Who’s come to slay the dragon,

Come to watch him fall?

Making arrows out of pointed words,

Giant killers at the call?

Too much fuss and bother,

Too much complication and confusion.

Peel away the mystery,

Here’s a clue to some real motivation.

All there really is,

The two of us,

And we both know why we’ve come along.

Nothing to explain,

It’s a part of us

To be found within a song.

What happened to our innocence,

Did it go out of style?

Along with our naivete',

No longer a child.

Different eyes see different things,

Different hearts beat on different strings.

But there are times

For you and me, when all such things agree.
