As the day comes to an end
And the night slowly descends
I sit here in the Sidewalk Cafe
Savouring my cup of tea
The lights across the bay
Twinkling on one by one
The whites, reds, and golds
Sparkling into my view
Not a ripple on the water
A mirror image it shall be
The boats bob quietly
Carefully not making not a peep
Such a beautiful fall evening
It turned out to be
The perfect way to end
A warm sunny day
I watch the people pass by
On their way here and there
Always on a mission
Busy as beavers they be
So intent on their errands
Their day not yet over
They don't see me here
Relaxing near the sycamore tree
The cafe umbrella over head
Protection from the sun
Now has been tilted back
So that I might view the night
I cannot help but wonder
Curious sort as I am
What the passing people would do
If I was to call out a Hello?
Would they not hear
So intent on their journey?
Or look at me strange
Wondering about me?
I am enjoying my oneness here
My peace and quiet time
As I contemplate life
As they go whizzing by
Should you stop at my greeting
Smile and say hi to me
I would invite you to sit
Enjoy a cup with me
Get to know what it's like
To just sit awhile and reflect
No rush, no bother or fuss
Relax yourself and just be

Lyrics to Now And Then :
She sings to me now and then
Gentle refrains of summer mornings
The first rays of sunlight
And dew-dropped roses
Winds rolling through falling leaves
Whistling in the sycamores
These are her songs of love
She needs to be reassured
Of all of the hope you hold for her
And when the lady loves you
Don't ever let it go
Take your world into your arms
And let your feelings show
And she, never will leave
Always these memories will stay with me
And I'll think of her now and then
She, she needs to be reassured
Of all of the hope you hold for her
And brother, when the lady loves you
Don't ever let it go
Take your world into your arms
And let your feelings show
And she, never will leave
Always these memories will stay with me
And I'll think of her now and then

Mis-post Cal ?
Yes, one second.
Now I got the right song. I was looking for the one with Sycamores.
You know you can post it in a blog here right ?
I wasn't sure if you meant to put it here or on your own site actually.
Is why I asked.
I'll have to upload it somewhere. It doesn't look like they have it on Imeem.
Well, I have to FIND the dang thing first!
ummmmmm ok
Its these separate partitions and all the moving around I had to do of the files. GEESH!
Ah, I found a pretty good rendition in a YouTube video. I'll have to re-download it before I can post it by Loggins & Messina. This one is pretty good, though:
sucks to be me at the moment too Cal :(
Thanks
Awww, why?
