I want to shout
to scream your name
from the rooftops
where all the stars align.

~ ~ ~ ~
We talk and smile some more

Yes,I will cherish it for the rest of my life, can't explain it, don't understand it, it is and always has been Don.
George Harrison, yes, Alice Cooper, very yes, David Essex even more yes. But Don..way beyond, a different realm
entirely. Maybe we were together in another life, who knows.
Who knows, indeed. Only time
Who knows, indeed. Only time itself.

That's a wonderful memory,
That's a wonderful memory, you said 'first' have you kept in touch?
Yes, and despite the ravages
Yes, and despite the ravages of age, the beauty and desirability that I experienced in 1976 is still present. But neither of us can now act upon it.

I understand that, Don was a
I understand that, Don was a young man in his early twenties, he is now much, much older 76 next week, but age matters not
