Memories and Blues

Well nothing earth shattering has happened today. Been a lazy day of wonderful music mixed with the occasional tear. I will always be grateful to “him” for introducing me to the heart felt world of blues music other wise I’m sure I would have never been enlightened to it all. I do regret never getting to see him perform with the band, but the private show I finally got was such a treat. Anyone that can honestly say they don’t like blues has something seriously wrong with them. If you don’t have a love for blues, you have never “felt” true music, it will touch your soul when nothing else can.

Memories
By Gem


Oh how I miss the days of thought
Feelings and emotions that only you brought.

I listen to songs that are close and dear to your heart
Bringing to me fond memories from out of the dark.

So many nights we followed the river down the highway through the cradle of the civil war
Awakening my spirit, touching my mind like no one had before.

Guiding me through the words until I found the meaning so true
Then awaiting ever so patiently for what the words meant to you.

So many days I would get disgusted and start thinking that your strange
When all you were wanting was a change.

To go under ground and get some heavy rest
From the life and people that you detest.

Your livin a dream, you on top
My mind is achin, lord it wont stop
that’s how it happens livin life by the drop.

Maybe one day your rest will come to an end
And you’ll come back into my life and make amends

Until then I shall set
Praying that one day I might get
One more moondance with you, my love.


Only if you needed somebody, the way that i need you
