Something Different

Is this a hymn? Is this a love song? Something ancient by a poet Maybe Hafiz, maybe Rumi Is he thinking about two hearts Searching in the darkness? Or is he thinking about fishing? The tune seems sad, but are the words sad? What's he saying? Is he praying? And why does it get to me? Is he lonely? Maybe reaching out for someone Look at me, maybe I'm the one who's fishing Everyday you stare to the west, to the south You can see for miles, but things never change Then honey in your ears, spice in your mouth Nothing's as surprising as the taste of something strange And here's this man right here beside me Kind of deep and kind of cute in his Sargent Pepper's suit Is this my sheikh? Is this my Omar Sharif? Well, I know it's something different Itgara'a Who is this man right here beside me? Closer by an inch or two my cheek would touch his ear What is he thinking? What does he wish for? Is he thinking about wishing? Something new I've never seen before Through this walls I've built This gates I protect Something new I didn't notice I was hoping for Nothing is as beautiful as something that you don't expect Look at those hands Those are not young hands But they move like they are swimming through the music Through the music And I don't know what I feel And I don't know what I know All I know is I feel something different Itgara'a He makes me feel something different
