Story behind the song
This song is a true story. I never saw this performer again..
Lyrics
It was late. I remember so well I was playing a bar down the street… and on break as I sat down to drink I was stopped by a man who wanted to sing. He said he was not much of a show…that wouldn’t matter at a time like this. If I would only lend him my stage, he would show me something not to be missed. He stood… not much to see from his place on the ground. And he walked onto the stage. He took my guitar like a father lifts a child. Careful and thoughtful he was. I was foolish to think he was simply another. There was no mistaking for what he was capable of. He played. Not like the way I had heard a man play before. And I watched the bartender, in shock, drop a handful of change to the floor. The crowd that was so unforgivably loud sat silent and staring at what stood before them: A man whose passion came spilling out grabbing the people who tried to ignore him. Fearless and raging, freakishly lustful he was. It was hard not to hear, each word from his mouth spilling like forbidden thoughts. In a haze the room filled with tension. People were blushing and staring excitedly. He was crazy electric…causing us all to feel helpless and lustful. He held on without hesitation…all of us hoping we wouldn’t get caught. I saw the people around me were sharing a moment of forbidden thought. Then just like a thief he finished his song, his head held back, sweat falling down his spine…causing his shirt to cling right to his skin inside-out he had nothing to hide. He moved like no one was watching, but everyone’s eyes were on him. He walked straight out the door through a crowd of hungry people wanting more.
