I was just up (peeing, actually), when the lines from “While You See A Chance” (Steve Winwood, 1981) came to me.
When some sad old dream reminds you
how the endless road unwinds you
while you see a chance, you take it
find romance, fake it
because it’s all on you
I always enjoy that section in particular. It’s an uplifting song to me, one of several favorites that Steve Winwood put out as a solo artist. Looking for confirmation a bit ago, I verified that he didn’t write the lyrics alone, that it was co-written by Will Jennings. I thought that I’d read that but couldn’t recall the details. Thanks to Wikipedia for the reminder.
The title, too, always strikes me; not, ‘when you see a chance’ but ‘while you see a chance’. Act while you see it, not when you see it. Like that subtle difference.

It seems then that the more introspective One is about making change, the less likely they are to do it. Would that apply to the acts of daily writing as well?
