It’s great having a guy like Paul over for an after dinner concert. The CD starts with some strumming, and proceeds to start telling us about someone on his mind. “She got lips like strawberry wine, lucky me.” Not one of those complaining oh me oh my I’m sad guys. He’s man enough to admit he’s lucky to know someone who has shared some special moments with him. Gotta love it. “I wonder if she ever realized I found a tapestry behind her eyes? And she’s alright, I’m telling you.” Lovely tune, lovely thoughts, and lovely to have a friend like this singing in my living room. It doesn’t hurt that the tune is extra catchy, so everyone is singing along by the last verse. A song we’ll listen to over and over. As with the shoutouts, The Day Before I Met You (“I used to believe that my life was a chariot pulled by wild horses”), and Fireflies Lullabye (Reprieve) (“Cicadas tap their rhythms on their trunks, so close your eyes with a promise that the world will wait till morning”).
