about

A surreal song with advice you'd best interpret and heed.

lyrics

TAKE HEED
by Dave Andrews

Take Heed, it’s the picture that gets you down.
Take a stand, it’s the feeling that moves you up and out.
Now hear this! It’s lonely when you’re there and when
you’re moving toward.
Take Heed, move your fingers to make it happen again.

Give in, the pain is crossing to the other side.
Give out, let conscience fly out in front of the door.
Now hear this! It’s trouble. Check you out!
Lift here, directions will get you where you are.
Give in, lose the moment, but don’t feel lost.

If I could be, then you could be, we all could be,
couldn’t we…?
If you would be, then I would be, we all would be,
wouldn’t we…?

Be still, your eyes can move, look around!
Be aware, I am one of the moving ones on the floor.
Now hear this! It’s lonely when you’re there and when
you’re moving toward.
Downtown, the cowboy’s taking his last ride.
Be still, it’s a moment for all to think.

If I could be, then you could be, we all could be,
couldn’t we…?
If you would be, then I would be, we all would be,
wouldn’t we?
