	Not a blues. It's about coming of age, reconciling with yourself, and coming to terms with one's relationship with one's mother in particular.

	Story Behind the Song Loafy is my cousin Stephanie's nickname, for complicated reasons. When I found this out, I was seized with the uncontrolable urge to write a song with the title "Loafy's Blues." Lyrics They say miracles, they happen all the time. But they're only Sleight of hand and sleight of mind But I am not so easily impressed Like all the rest And when I hear that song I sing along In a memory, I am hanging from a cord In the freefall Of waking to the world And a heartbeat is the onlyhome we know But as years go by, the rhythm starts to slow And when I hear that song I sing along I can see my whole lifetime In the space between a breath But I run from the truth like I run from death You can have your answers But you may not agree It's up to you There are moments when the answers are so clear But the problem Is always getting there from here You can travel down the road that leads you home Like a memory, the words you've always known And when I hear that song I sing along
