about

I wrote this last spring '23. It's on my latest album "Songs and Tunes".

lyrics

When I First Met You

When I first met you
The wind was in your hair
Yea your auburn hair
Cliche as it were / The autumn winds blew
That's when I knew.
That's when I fell for you

Nothing you could say
Nothing you could do
But somehow you knew
You somehow just knew
That somehow I'd fall
I'd fall for you

I fell in love like a drunken fool
Out on a drunk parade
With no one else in sight
As the carousel
went round and round
on into the autumn night

I guess that's how it goes
As we just drift along
Like scattering stars
And wandering bears
And somehow that's when
We fall in love

Somehow the autumn winds / still / fall away
I wish I knew what I could say

To make all ok
But I never could
Just dream on my way
Of those autumn days
When somehow I fell in love with you
