The thing about Jazz

Is that it was the hottest it had been all year

The door was open

Carrying Spring in

And our music out

 

The thing about Jazz

Is that the sun was so bright

When he told us he got kicked out

 

The thing about Jazz

Is that we still played

Through tears

 

The thing about Jazz

Is that we were laughing

And smiling

We joked through our solos

Provided the shelter we could for an hour

 

The thing about jazz

Is that he didn't have his guitar

So he just sat with us

 

The thing about jazz

Is that he never came back

But we kept the door open all spring
