about

While playing in a string band I wrote this song. Kind of country, but also about the theory of relativity.

lyrics

Like a deer blinded in the headlights
Like a blizzard in the state of Maine
Like Frosty the Snowman, Nanook of the North
Or Rosebud from Citizen Kane
Like an insect trapped in the amber
Or a spaceman at the speed of light
Never gettin older
As long as he remains in flight

We are frozen in time, frozen in time
As long as we're movin together
We are frozen in time

Well it doesn't take an Einstein
To talk about relativity
We're all relatin to someone
Like the birds are relatin to the bees
Or maybe it's the birds relatin to the birds
And the bees relatin to the bees
Somehow I go a feelin
You could be relatin with me

We are frozen in time, frozen in time
As long as we're movin together
We are frozen in time

Like old Ponce de Leon
Searchin for the fountain of youth
He would've saved himself a lotta time
If he'd only known the truth
That we're all gettin older and some are gettin wise
To what is at the core
Two bodies movin in space and time
Are all the matter and energy's for

Chaim Bezalel Stanwood, Washington

My mother had a collection of 78 rpm records of folk music and I became a folk music lover from a young age. I attended festivals and concerts, sat with Libba Cotten when she sang Freight Train. I learned to pick sitting in Washington Square as a teenager. However, I did not begin writing songs until my 50's. I am also a poet and artist. I live in Wasnhington State and in Israel. ... more
