Do You Have a Place for Me?

Do You Have a Place for Me?

with the sound of a bird
before I wake--
not song, flight,
the wing of the air

before I know how it goes.

This sounds like it should be a springtime ditty, Peter. I like the tone of it.

Thanks, Les. Living in SF now after a lifetime in New England I never know what season it is.

If you live in SF, Pete, there is only one season: Fog season. Enjoy.

Nick Drake - A place to be

When I was younger, younger than before
I never saw the truth hanging from the door
And now I'm older see it face to face
And now I'm older gotta get up clean the place.

And I was green, greener than the hills
Where the flowers grew and the sun shone still
Now I'm darker than the deepest sea
Just hand me down, give me a place to be.

And I was strong, strong in the sun
I thought I'd see when day is done
Now Im weaker than the palest blue
Oh, so weak in this need for you.

Thanks, Kris, for share his need with me. Nick's a fine lyricist.
