Searching for the comfort of a soulful song well sung

I AM LAUGHING IN THE FACE OF DEATH
ALTHOUGH I KNOW IT WOULD KILL ME IF I DIED
SO YOUNG

I AM SMOKING LIKE A FURNESS AND DRINKING LIKE A FISH
I AM SEARCHING FOR THE COMFORTOF A SOULFUL SONG
WELL SUNG

A TUNE THAT FLOATS ABOVE THE SCALES
A VOICE WITH PASSION THAT UNVEILS THE SADNESS IN
MANS SOUL

ALTHOUGH A SPOT NOT EASILY REACHED
WHEN HUMAN PASSION IS RELEASED IT FILLS THAT
GAPING HOLE

WHERE UILLEN PIPES AND VIOLINS
GENTLY STIR THAT FIRE WITHIN TO KEEP
IT WARM

WHERE WORDS OF FREEDOM AND OF LOVE
ELEVATE YOU FAR ABOVE THE RAGING
STORM

WHEN THE VOICE AND TUNE COMBINED
TURN THE WATER INTO WINE YOU FILL YOUR GLASS
BUT SIP

IT TAKES YOU WHERE YOU WANT TO GO
WHERE PEOPLE LOVE AND LET IT SHOW, RELAX ENJOY
THE TRIP
