Borrowed Tune

I'm climbin' this ladder,

My head in the clouds

I hope that it matters,

I'm havin' my doubts.



I'm watchin' the skaters

Fly by on the lake.

Ice frozen six feet deep,

How long does it take?



I look out on peaceful lands

With no war nearby,

An ocean of shakin' hands

That grab at the sky.



I'm singin' this borrowed tune

I took from the rolling stones,

Alone in this empty room

Too wasted to write my own.



I'm climbin' this ladder,

My heads in the clouds

I hope that it matters.
