Miguel (Summer Side of Life) 4:12 Never had much to say He traveled alone with no friends Like a shadowy ghost At dawn he came and he went Through the woodland swiftly gliding To the young maid he came riding Where she'd run to meet him By the garden wall Oh my sweet Miguel I will never tell No one will ever know What I know too well And he'd smile and lay his head on her breast And he'd say I have no fear They're waiting for me to cross the border, to swim the river ‘Cause I've done that before To see my true love's smiling face A hundred times or more Oh my sweet Miguel she cried I'll love you ‘til I die He was born to the south In Mexico they say The child of a man Who was soon gone away But his mother loved him dearly And she would take him yearly To the great cathedral in St. Augustine Oh my young Miguel Listen to the bell Of my poverty You must never tell And he cried himself to sleep in the night And he vowed to make things right So he took the gun down from the wall and he paid a call He knew she'd understand A lawman came to capture him The gun jumped in his hand Oh Miguel the mother cried You must run son or you'll die So the story is told Of his true love 'cross the line As strong as the oak And as sweet as the vine And the child she bore him Came on the fateful morning When they sent him to his final rest Oh my sweet Miguel Listen to the bell No one will ever know What I know too well Then she'd smile and lay the child on her breast And she'd say I have no fear I'm waiting for you to cross the border, to swim the river 'Cause you've done that before To see your true love's smiling face A hundred times or more Oh my sweet Miguel she cried I'll love you ‘til I die Link For online discussions about Gordon Lightfoot, his music and related topics http://www.corfid.com/ Link to Gordon Lightfoot website maintained by Wayne Francis http://www.lightfoot.ca/ Link to buy Gordon Lightfoot CD's http://www.bestprices.com/cgi-bin/vli... less Tags: miguel gordon lightfoot lightfoot tribute team 4lanestudios mylady stonewallstudios Category: Music Views: 399 Comments: 54 Added: Jul 5, 08 By: MyLady  | |  |  | | Shenandoah The Kingston Trio 03:18This was and still is one of my Kingston Trio all-time favorites.

Please come to Boston for the springtime I'm stayin' here with some friends and they've got lots of room You can sell your paintings on the sidewalk By a café where I hope to be workin' soon Please come to Boston She said no, would you come home to me

Please come to Denver with the snowfall We'll move up into the mountains so far that we can't be found And throw "I love you" echoes down the canyon And then lie awake at night till they come back around Please come to Denver She said no, boy, would you come home to me
{Refrain, with Denver}
{Bridge} Now this drifter's world goes 'round and 'round And I doubt that it's ever gonna stop But of all the dreams I've lost or found And all that I ain't got I still need to cling to Somebody I can sing to
/ Bm A / G D / Bm A / G - / Em - / A - /
Please come to LA to live forever California life alone is just too hard to build I live in a house that looks out over the ocean And there's some stars that fell from the sky Livin' up on the hill Please come to LA She just said no, boy, won't you come home to me

"Early Morning Rain" . It took a little time more...to get a handle on the production. The setting is the wonderful town of Galashiels, south of Edinburgh, north of Dumfries, home to Robbie Burns. A dear friend of ours, Ken (Bomber) Laidlaw was born in Galashiels near the end of the Second World War. We had the pleasure of visiting with Ken and his mates in May, 2005, when my brother took these marvellous images of the hills above the town, Galashiels, Scotland. Ken died a bachelor, May 2006, in his beloved home beneath the hills - Galashiels.
Nancy, I know you have been under the weather lately. Hope this cheers you up . Your Friend, Teejay

But, doing half of a song was out of the more...question. This one is definitely two songs in one, with the trick being to tie the two together. The more I listened to it, the more I realized that he was disillusioned with the west coast lifestyle and longing for, possibly dreaming of, someone in North Ontario. As is the case with many of Lightfoot’s songs, interpretations will vary, and debates will continue over intentions, locations and content. Maybe this is what keeps his music fresh and his audiences both loyal and new… ~~ Lynn Cabaret (Summer Side of Life) 5:49 All I can see is the sea and the sky And the sky is blue and the sea is green Yesterday's a cabaret Gowns of satin on ladies gay Yesterday's a cabaret Sounds of laughter on faces grey Yesterday's a carousel Catch the ring and all will be well From the coast of California Up to the Oregon border I've thumbed a thousand miles I guess Sitting in a roadside diner The big trucks rollin' by I don't seem to know at times what's best And still I'd like to tell her That I miss her so In north Ontario If you're drivin' east to Reno Or north to Mendocino I hope you find your rainbow's end This highway is my rainbow And though I might regret it I'm so glad I said it way back when And still I'd like to tell her That I miss her so In north Ontario Link For online discussions about Gordon Lightfoot, his music and related topics http://www.corfid.com/ Link to Gordon Lightfoot website maintained by Wayne Francis http://www.lightfoot.ca/ Link to buy Gordon Lightfoot CD's http://www.bestprices.com/cgi-bin/vli... less Tags: cabaret gordon lightfoot tribute team 4lanestudios stonewallstudios mylady ontario dream carousel horse manitoulin island Category: Music Views: 104 Comments: 23 Added: Sep 8, 08 By: MyLady  | |  |  | | Affair On 8th Avenue 03:29This one's been high on my list of favourite Lightfoot songs since the first time I heard it. The power of the sense of smell… Who hasn’t been transported back to a specific place and time just by the more...scent of something – fresh cut grass, home baking, perfume? A woman’s fragrance is carefully chosen to be memorable. Gordon Lightfoot attests to that with this beautiful song. Affair On 8th Avenue (Back Here On Earth) 3:39 The perfume that she wore was from some little store On the down side of town But it lingered on long after she'd gone I remember it well And our fingers entwined like ribbons of light And we came through a doorway somewhere in the night Her long flowing hair came softly undone And it lay all around And she brushed it down as I stood by her side In the warmth of her love And she showed me her treasures of paper and tin And we played a game only she could win And she told me a riddle I'll never forget Then left with the answer I've never found yet How long, said she, can a moment like this Belong to someone What's wrong, what is right, when to live or to die We must almost be born So if you should ask me what secrets I hide I'm only your lover, don't make me decide The perfume that she wore was from some little store On the down side of town But it lingered on long after she'd gone I remember it well And she showed me her treasures of paper and tin And we played a game only she could win And our fingers entwined like ribbons of light And we came through a doorway somewhere in the night Link For online discussions about Gordon Lightfoot, his music and related topics http://www.corfid.com/ Link to Gordon Lightfoot website maintained by Wayne Francis http://www.lightfoot.ca/ Link to buy Gordon Lightfoot CD's http://www.bestprices.com/cgi-bin/vli... less Tags: affair on 8th avenue gordon lightfoot tribute team 4lanestudios mylady stonewallstudios london perfume Category: Music Views: 284 Comments: 43 Added: Aug 14, 08 By: MyLady  | |  |
