Description

Reflections on life stages, in particular, mid-life. It’s all good. In this song, I mention staring into 1968—while I was r-e-a-l-l-y young then, it fit in better than 1974, which would have perhaps been a better chronological, albeit not lyrical, choice. Also, when I play this song out, instead of “peeking thru my fingers at the 1990’s” I just adjust the timeframe, i.e., “peeking thru my fingers at 2008” (so far, all years have fit!)lol
