Love Song |
We walked the beach of Cocoa Beach, Florida |
We walked the beaches of Tel Aviv, Israel |
We walked the beaches of Centro, Portugal |
We walked the beaches of Stinson and Bolinas, California |
We walked along the Tuscarawas in Ohio |
We walked along the Niagara River in Buffalo |
We walked along the American River in Coloma |
And along the Sacramento River in California |
We’ve driven through the Sierras |
Through Donner’s Pass and Truckee through the snow and the pine trees |
We’ve driven down Highway 1 so many times |
For fried oysters, green chili soup and Olallieberry pie |
I remember our first kiss like it was yesterday |
We both said «First I want to brush my teeth first» |
At the exact time |
And since then I’ve been yours and you’ve been mine |
And these have been the most wonderful years of my life |
These have been the most wonderful years of my life |
We’ve shared beds in St. Malo |
And Reykjavik and Tokyo |
And in my Dad’s extra bedroom in Massillon, Ohio |
And in New Orleans at the Monteleone |
Yeah I’ve spent time with others throughout our time |
And I’ve grappled with that duality of my life |
That I don’t expect civilians to comprehend, understand or know |
The complications of my idiosyncratic soul |
Home life verses, the turbulent life of rock 'n' roll |
The road is loneliness, emptiness, alienation |
A life of temptation, flirtation, and preoccupation |
Of jugglin' and compartmentalization |
Can’t carry this weight anymore |
Shame, sorrow and frustration |
Yeah I didn’t marry my high school sweetheart |
Didn’t get a dog and a 4-door car and a picket fence |
I told y’all I’m half man, I’m half alley cat |
On Among the Leaves |
And somehow y’all gave me praise for that |
And somehow y’all gave me praise for that |
Now I’m almost 54 and life has intervened |
And I’ve closin' those old doors |
And sayin' goodbye to that life and I mean it |
And every day I love you more and more and more and more |
Every day I love you and can’t wait to see you walk inside my door |
Everyday I’m grateful to get to know you more |
Now and then I dream I’m on stage |
Runnin' around tryin' to get from place to place to place |
The other night I dreamed Hal Willner was still alive |
That I was on stage singin' one of his events and so beautiful was the vibe |
The band was shakin' the stage the sound was so alive |
The band was shakin' the stage the sound was so alive |
And I walked off stage and there you were Caroline by my side |
Then I woke up and my god I felt so fucking down |
Where did it all go, where did he go, my old music friend Hal? |
I think of the world before and I think of the world now |
And I just want to take this moment to say, I miss you Hal |
Sunny days in San Francisco are so rare |
But this mornin' I woke up and so clear was the air |
Walked up the hill, sat on a bench at Lafayette Park |
Talked to my sister, told her I loved her |
She said, I love you too, Mark |
And Caroline called and I said can’t wait to see you tonight |
And share the bed with you and your cat and watch some TV and get a bite to eat |
I’ve been waking up every day next to a pillow |
Thinkin' you’re there, and then I find myself alone and 10 pounds fatter |
Still readin' John Fante’s Full of Life |
Still writin' words and music for it is my blood |
For it is my life |
I beat myself that I’m not as good as Henry Miller or John Fante |
But like both all I want to be is true |
And write a love song for you |
That’s all I want to do is write a love song for you |
Your brown eyes are like a mahogany dream |
Your skin is sweet as coffee ice cream |
Your lips are as sensual as the freshest Japanese seabream |
You lift my spirits, you lift my pride and my self-esteem |
Oh we’re just back from Kokkari |
Places are openin' back up and everybody in the restaurant seemed so jolly |
When fall turns to winter I hope the world doesn’t get back to its horror story |
And gets more divided and more Civil Warry |
Either way if I’m with you there’s no need for me to worry |
Don’t know where to go now or what to do with this story |
Except to give credit where credit is due |
My life lacks inspiration and purpose without you |
Don’t know where to go now don’t know what to do |
Except to write this love song for you |
Except to write this love song for you |
