REMEMBER STEELY DAN
Songwriter (Text & Musik): (c) Marina Salamon

Gaze through the window at the traffic lights.
Think 'bout the talk we had last night.
Hardly could recognize you without your blue jeans.
Missed the familiar glance in those dull eyes.
Hey my old school friend, what 's become of you?
Where have you been, what did you go through?
Your lips so thin and small, your smile has torn to two.
Something unknown inside you must have broken through.
You asked me: Do you remember Steely Dan?
Those days when we laughed in the rain,
celebrating our time?

Words filled the big hall of the library.
You talked of the past. The hours went by.
You dreamed of times long gone, when everything was better.
Uncertainty of the future scared you to death.
Long may you run until you thought
you'd found your own way, no change in need.
Your life was a calm straight sea with you inside feeling safe.
Things were settling into shape.
You listened to the groovy music of Steely Dan,
drank some beer and found the world was great,
in your special way.

Drawers were filled with your opinion of the world.
Certainty has finally become flesh.
Hope, there won't come a day when the only good thing in your life
is when nothing more happens frightening you.
Let us listen to the music of Steely Dan,
drink some more beer, throw away your toupee.
Make your dreams come true, make your dreams come true.
