A Free Fall and Something

I like Michael Franks - listening to him is like eavesdropping to private conversation about a special memory that you sort of wish you own but would rather marvel at how marvelous that memory is --- it's private and public at the same time and though I find it tough humming his songs, when the trusty nano is playing the albums, I get lost.

A gent was generous to give me copies of his albums. Alternating it now with Powderfinger.

My Heart Said Wow
Michael Franks

I guess I never knew love
Could ever be true love
Life had left me gigantically
Anti-romantic
I was blue as Camus
And I never quite understood why
Love passed me by

Though it's true that this ditty
Begins in self-pity
I can promise the ending
Will be more ascending
Cause I've made some revisions
Since our sweet collision
And how
Just look at me now
I simply surrendered
The moment my heart said Wow

Though it's true that this ditty
Begins in self-pity
I can promise the ending
Will be more ascending
Cause I've made some revisions
Since our sweet collision
And how
Just look at me now
I simply surrendered
The moment my heart said Wow


Aren't we all looking for the Wow moment? Now i just need a wow back.
