Re: Seeing It Through His Lyrics
Hi Anthony.
There are many others out there like you.
I remember well when I discovered a whole new world with the help of another friend, Ed Mullen who introduced me into internet world of Lightfoot fans on the Google Groups network. See alt.music.lightfoot. We are not alone.
If you have the "Songbook" collection of Gordon Lightfoot there is a song on disc # 2 track # 17 called "Stone Cold Sober." It is a "previously unissued" song and a mighty fine piece of work it is IMHO.
check out this lyric:
"We have soared above the clouds, we've heard the angels breathing
While we made love in the morning, there was never talk of leaving
We would lie that way for hours with our arms around each other
It was all so easy, I sure would like to talk to you again.
When I first heard that I practically froze in the position I was sitting. I left the repeat button on and the CD player cranked on bust for the rest of the day!
Try and join us in November when Gord plays his Massey Hall concerts.
Cheers, RJ.
