A Journey Through The House Of Mirrors

Tom Russell/Iris Dement: Box of Visions

a song is just
a box of visions
a jar of hearts
a gypsy's ear
a labyrinth
of wild roses
a journey though
the house of mirrors
wait a while
and you'll grow stronger
never mind
what the sad folks say
just keep an angel
on your shoulder
never throw
your dreams away
for they might
save your life one day
