LAURA NYRO timer - YouTube - A Laura Nyro Tribute

Laura Nyro (1947-1997) Lyrically and melodically complex,this song is possibly a love song to her son."Walking with the master of time,my lady woke up,and she broke down.I belong to timer,he changed my face.You've got me walking through the gates of space.If you love me through and you love me too,I'll spend my life with you.Walking to my cradle with my hands open...""Walking from uptown to down" refers to her beloved Bronx,which is uptown.
