@Reluctant6 Greetings to the new brunette! I like that verse as well.
-
@Oxmix64 totally agree. He's wrote many a wonderful verse but thats right up there with the best! My other favourite is 'here we are in our summer years living on ice-cream and chocolate kisses but would the leaves fall from the trees if I was your old man and you were my missus'.

Ever since I first heard this song in my twenties I've been terrified of becoming the type of person that could lead someone to tell me "Your life has lost its dignity, its beauty and its passion." That terror helps keep me honest.

I want to thank Billy for the last verse.
My sins are so unoriginal
I have all the self-loathing of a wolf in sheep's clothing
In this carnival of carnivores,
Heaven help me

A genuine iconic voice of the times, with a unique and noble manner by a tremendous Spirit and big heart.
