♫I Am Very Hard to Find♫

This is a deeply personal song that came rolling in a couple of days ago. I really can't go into the details because I am not in possession of them, and some might get entirely too curious if I was.

Lyrics=

Someone told me long ago,

when I got there, I would know

I would see and understand,

but then it all got out of hand

It was simple at the start

Keep it clean and watch your heart,

but then it started moving fast

cause someone said it wouldn't last,

and I tried to make it fit

into the time that I had left

and then the whole charade was gone,

and I still had to move along

I went down to Tallahassee,

no one knew that I was me

I got a job there tending bar

Till I heard, I know who you are.

No, I am not a person

Just a myth in people's minds

a spirit in the ethers and...

very hard to find

Once again, I'm on my way

to look for Caladrano Bay

Someone said it's up ahead

That's what the guy before him said

I lived there almost fifty years

Till I got those knowing stares

You don't seem to age, they say,

and once again, I'm on my way

I met a man one time somewhere

gave me some powder and a prayer

It gave me life, I don't know why,

and now it seems I cannot die

No, I am not a person

Just a myth in people's minds

a spirit in the ethers and...

very hard to find

That also means I cannot stay,

and where is Caladrano Bay?

There's less cause for asking why

When you know you cannot die

No, I am not a person

Just a myth in people's minds

a spirit in the ethers and...

very hard to find

because I'm never there

when you turn and look

Maybe you'll look hard enough

then I am off the hook

It's like the child's game of tag,

but you don't know until the touch

and then I'm gone, where did I go?

The one who's touched will never know

No, I am not a person

Just a myth in people's minds

a spirit in the ethers and...

very hard to find

extremely hard to find

Near impossible to find

but I did...

and so... you might

If you get the pattern right.
