Jack Gentle

what makes you wanna live

what makes you wanna move

what makes your moments mean a thing

is it something you can prove

 

we love as best we can

driven by what drives us best

it could be a moonlit night in June

could be a painful trial or test

 

Jack Gentle called me on the phone

told me he was hanging on

said the Eucharist keeps him strong

Jack Gentle called me on the phone

 

could be liquor

could be wine

could be drugs of any kind

for some it's money

for some it's things

for some it's an image

a style a game

 

Jack Gentle called me on the phone

told me he was hanging on

said the Eucharist keeps him strong

Jack Gentle called me on the phone

 

if i met an angel

how would i know

unless i saw some silver wings

motivation

to keep praying

is sometimes a fragile thing

 

emotions come

emotions go

 the hilltop highs

the valley lows

we live mostly in between

doing the same old same old things

 

Jack Gentle called me on the phone

told me he was hanging on

said the Eucharist keeps him strong

Jack Gentle called me on the phone
