Ike Turner

Pure

Ike Turner


Five miles or a galaxy away
Where are you tonight
Across town i can
Hear your music play
I know that you were right

And it feels like an avalanche
Crashing in my head
As i listen to the poetry
In what you said

When everything is tainted
How do you remain
You're not afraid of changing
The way you stay the same
When everyone is jaded
How do you stay so pure

Cold comfort
In a year of yesterdays
Knocks me out again
Across town i still can
Hear your music play
And i try to understand

Can the sound of
All the symphonies
Playing simultaneously
Bring me to you one more time

When everything is tainted
How do you remain
You're not afraid of changing
The way you stay the same
When everyone is jaded
How do you stay so
Everything is tainted
How do stay so
Can everything you've waited for
Is still remain so
Pure
