edison freeman and the color of fire - my experience
lyrics
I haven't climbed the 7 mountains, I haven't sailed the 7 seas, but I've lived in 7 cities, so I've seen all there is to see
I speak with people on the street, they make myth to give life sense
I've watched them live and move and breathe

It's my experi ence
that good men go to graveyards, cause they just get in the way, that babies lose their mother cause she knew not where to lay
In days of old men traveled far, experience to glean
but these days you need not leave your car
to see most everything

and I've seen dew on the flowers and rainbows in the sky
and all these fields of people, both good and bad
and all these things have been
my experience

and I've had wives and I've had lovers, I've done them right, I've done them wrong
I've reached the highest and the lowest points, and the tears came all along
now I'm a warning light, a beacon, for my children yet their turn to dance
I shall tell them of the journey, which they shall experience...

- edison freeman
