Love or Confusion?


A song for today...and a self-portrait from this morning.
I hadn't listened to this Hendrix song in a very long time. Today, it landed on me and oh, I love this whole CD, "Are You Experienced?"
Love the feel of this song, and for today? It suits me.






Love or Confusion...Jimi Hendrix

Is that the stars in the sky, or is it, rain fallin’ down
Will it burn me if I touch the sun-
uh, yeah, so big, so round
Would I be truthful, yeah, in, uh,
In choosin’ you as the one for me? Is this love, baby, or is it, uh-huh,
Just, uh, confusion?
O-oh, my mind is so messed up-
uh, goin’ ’round and ’round
Must there be all the colors-uh
Without names, without sound, baby?
My heart burns with feeling, but, uh
Whoa, but my mind, it’s cold and reeling
Is this love, baby, or, uh-huh, or is it confusion?
Oh, my head is poundin’, poundin’
Goin’ ’round and ’round and ’round and ’round
Must there always be these colors? , uh
Without names, without sound?
My heart burns with feelin’
Oh, but my mind is cold and reelin’, uh
Is this love, baby
Or is it-
uh, huh, just, uh, confusion?
Oh, you tell me baby, is this,
uh, love or confusion?
Mama, we must get together and, uh, find out
Exactly what we’re tryin’ to do
Love or confusion?
