Upside Spoon

UPSIDE SOON (A Reworking of an original instrumental track, Pausa Di riflessione, By Silvio Vinci) My pen stops halfway through a line, I let the question take its time. Inside the spoon, I’m upside down; My clever answer makes no sound. The clock can run its little race; Hold that thought, just let it turn, I’ve got one more thing to learn. I was sure a breath ago; Now I’m glad I don’t quite know. A pigeon struts across the square And looks as if he owns the air. I had a point I meant to prove; I watch him change his mind and move. The clock can run its little race; I’ve found a use for empty space. Hold that thought, just let it turn, I’ve got one more thing to learn. I was sure a breath ago; Now I’m glad I don’t quite know. The spoon has made the window small And put the sky against the wall. I turn it round, the view comes back; Perhaps my thoughts can bend like that. Hold that thought, just let it turn, I’ve got one more thing to learn. I was sure a breath ago; Now I’m glad I don’t quite know. Hold that thought, just let it turn… I’ve got one more thing to learn.

UPSIDE SOON
(A Reworking of an original instrumental track, Pausa Di riflessione, By Silvio Vinci)

My pen stops halfway through a line,
I let the question take its time.
Inside the spoon, I’m upside down;
My clever answer makes no sound.

The clock can run its little race;

Hold that thought, just let it turn,
I’ve got one more thing to learn.
I was sure a breath ago;
Now I’m glad I don’t quite know.

A pigeon struts across the square
And looks as if he owns the air.
I had a point I meant to prove;
I watch him change his mind and move.

The clock can run its little race;
I’ve found a use for empty space.

Hold that thought, just let it turn,
I’ve got one more thing to learn.
I was sure a breath ago;
Now I’m glad I don’t quite know.

The spoon has made the window small
And put the sky against the wall.
I turn it round, the view comes back;
Perhaps my thoughts can bend like that.

Hold that thought, just let it turn,
I’ve got one more thing to learn.
I was sure a breath ago;
Now I’m glad I don’t quite know.

Hold that thought, just let it turn…
I’ve got one more thing to learn.
