I was trying to catch the wind & to be a good man
in this song the clear influence of many good jazz guitarists is to be mentioned
Lyrics
I was trying to catch the wind and to be a good man
(Music & Lyrics Peter Kosta)
I was trying to catch the wind
but instead I caught a little sparrow
I put it into cage
but it did not want to sing
I let it go
I was trying to be a good man and husband
and I cooked every morning coffee for you
and I brought it to your bed
and your eyes, sleepy and weary as you were
smiled forever
I tried to be a good man, but I made many
mistakes in my life
I tried to be a good father
but I was never loved by my own children
But no one really respected did
not really respect me
and left me when it was too late
to explain
too late to
catch the wind again
