Tracy Chapman - crossroad
All you folks think you own my life
But you never made any sacrifice
Demons they are on my trail
I'm standing at the crossroads of hell
I look to the left I look to the right
There's hands that grab me on every side
All you folks think I got my price
At which I'll sell all that is mine
You think money rules when all else fails
Go sell your soul and keep your shell
I'm trying to protect what I keep inside
All the reasons why I live my life
Some say the devil be a mystical thing
I say the devil he a walking man
He a fool he a liar conjurer and a thief
He try to tell you what you need
Try to tell you what you need
Standing at the point
The road it cross you down
What is at your back
Which way do you turn
Who will come to find you first
Your devils or your gods
All you filks think you run my life
Say I should be willing to compromise
I say all you demons go back to hell
I'll save my soul save myself

Wonderful song Hermes.
Tracy Chapman's voice is lovely. I use to listen to her music a lot, a long time ago so it was nice to listen to her again and recapture my youth. I use to spend my summers in Cornwall walking along St Ives beach with her songs on my walkman!:)
By the way that could of been Simon who worked upstairs in the bookshop.
He use to own Arcania.
Anyway you are lucky to live near Glastonbury. A magical place.:)
Have a lovely weekend.
Jo.
This is one of my very favourite songs. I'm sure it was Simon. Its raining here but life is what you make it and I feel upbeat and very positive today for some reason. Have a great weekend too.
