    Superb balance of acoustic guitar and electric bass provides accompaniment for the vocal line. Outro fit for a night-long jam.

    Story Behind the Song
    Recorded at the time of Struggle, this song reflects the early pursuits of Slapmaster. The title has nothing to do with Burt, and it really has no relavence to the song beyond the drumbeat's remote similarity to a Bacharach beat. The lyrics' meaning is different for each listener - it is a very interpretive, introspective tune.

    Lyrics
    We live amongst it all the time,
    Never wonder, is there a rhyme?
    Our whole life passes by,
    Get our feet wet, but just want to stay dry.
    Could there be meaning in the clouds?
    In the stars, when they come around?
    There's a song, I'm hearin' it now -
    The meaning's there, can't figure out how.

    You hear it on the way,
    No words can seem to stay.
    We must find out what's missing:
    Lost lyrics that define the day.

    I know that hope keeps us alive,
    At least away from the knife.
    The quest for reason on which they embark,
    Leaves us wondering, did we miss the mark?
    Often they don't return,
    They found the song, left us to learn.
    It holds us together in times of war,
    Sometimes too loud, it evens the score.
