When Jimmy Plays


Sometimes a love song is dazed and confused!

I heard G_D made a woman to balance me, when I get mad, did G_D give that woman the right to know me beyond that. To take from my anger to take when I’m cruel to know with ingenuity my weakness when I’m cool. I heard G_D made a woman that knows me too, may be that’s why its heaven. blissful in the night when we talk, chaos when we screw. Chaos when we screw. So much for a madam, so much for anything that’s new. Who needs fake Teflon, when I got you? I’ll take what I have, because it’s better than good, and deeper dreams do come true. I’m listening to Jimmy Page while I look at you, over twenty-six years I’ve been looking at sweet you.

When the wind came down, chords falling, octave after octave, oh we hurt, like we never thought we could. Vows in light, real life in darkness, everything is suddenly round not square, not like the good book said. Jimmy’s playing his bow, oh the devil plays a bow, like lightning can strike a man’s soul. Children we got children, better than gold, better than pretty, we look at each other what are we going to do. They look so much like me, they look so much like you, what’s to imagine, I heard G_D made a woman, looks like that G_D made a man too. What we have here is a puzzle, what we have is me and you, oh, oh, oh, so sweet is life, when I’m dazed and confused. Sometimes a love song is dazed and confused.

I heard an overture, a dream, then I heard G_D made a woman to balance me. She stepped right on each loosed strand, each bow string off Jimmy Page’s hand. And I climbed an illusion that was hidden in me, the difference between me and Jimmy is I had her with me. For I saw the old man, she saw him too, and she told me, unlike that old man, I am going to make you be you. Go on now and play. Sometimes a love song is dazed and confused.

And we love for such a long time, for such a long time, while Jimmy plays, yes while Jimmy plays.

I heard G_D made a woman to balance me, when I am old, did G_D give that woman the right to know me beyond that. To take all I had taken and let me take it right back. To push me further, then I ever could push back, to push me further, then I ever could push back. I’m listening to Jimmy Page while I look at you, over twenty-six years I’ve been looking at sweet you. 05.25.18- דָּנִיֵּאל

  1. I could hear page playing and plant singing. A nice love song really. I believe you even captured the blues sufficiently.

  2. It was all very Zepplin like, but I really loved this line the most. “I heard an overture, a dream, then I heard G_D made a woman to balance me. “

  3. Daniel I have been waiting for this brand of a masterpiece from you for a while. Your words balance the music nicely, and could easily be replacement lyrics. (Especially during the instrumentals) well done my friend, well done.

  4. I usually speak my own words in comments, but have to quote this from yours, like any long year’d married chap should. “What we have here is a puzzle, what we have is me and you, oh, oh, oh, so sweet is life, when I’m dazed and confused. Sometimes a love song is dazed and confused.”

  5. Dear Daniel, you entered the Houses of the Holy, and you added words to one of my favorite Zeppelin tunes. It is almost spiritual how your words match Jimmy’s playing in the song. This was a great fun read. You consistently amaze me. 😉 ❤ ❤ ❤

  6. A very sumptuous write, Daniel. If gowns were made of words, this could be a gown…. and a tuxedo!
    PS:
    First time I ever smoked pot, this was playing. I was truly dazed and confused.
