INDIAN SUMMER ~ POCO

Northwest Florida is having, for the past one week and a half, the most beautiful Indian Summer that I may have ever experienced..but, I think I always say that..but, for some reason, this one is special...and, so very beautiFuL...now, I know why I just had to make this video... I love this time of year..reaLLy chiLLy at night..and, warM aLL day..crystal clear blue skies...and, I am actually seeing some awesome fall colours...

My mama is alive and well...and, expressing joy...I can not even describe how much joy that is giving me at the moment...I did not want to have to tell my brother that his mama was gone..

My roommate, Dennis, has had the big one...three blockages in his heart..but, survived and probably will feel better than ever..I am hoping and it is my prayer that he will consider this truly the first day of the rest of his life..but, due to a old head injury from a motorcycle accident..his reasoning is not very good..so, he truly needs prayer and healing..and, so do I..'-) BTW..he is not my boyfriend or signigficant other...he is my friend.. just wanted to say that out loud...thanks for listening..like you had a choice lol..thank you friends...so very much..for being here..


Indian Summer is the 12th album by the Country rock band Poco. This was the band's last studio album before both Timothy B. Schmit and George Grantham left the group.

This is another great tune that has been forever inside my head and heart...so nice to be able to express the joy this song gave me through the years. I have not experienced fall colours many times..being from the south..Our autumn months are beautiFul, but, twice I lived where the colours truly changed, and it was a very big happening..to see every colour on God's palette...I have never forgotten that. I love indian summertime...and, I thank Our Father for another day to embrace the beauty of it all..Thank you, Poco for the years of great tunes.


Lyrics:
Theres a full moon in the sky
Its got a hold on me, Im hyptotized
Like your love its getting stronger
Please keep my heart a little longer

Indian summer is on its way
Cool at night - and hot all day
Aint no black clouds filled with rain
Santa Ana wind blew them all to Maine

Baby takes my hand
She says she understands
About the way I feel
She knows this love is real

Im a wide open space cowboy
I got lazy ways I got some hidden joy
Motorcycle and tons of rpm
Aint gonna wait around till its here again

Baby takes my hand...
She says she understands
About the way I feel
She knows my love is real

Indian summer is on its way
Cool at night - and hot all day
Aint no black clouds filled with rain
Santa Ana wind blew them all to Maine.

You have such great tunes collected on your channel..more mellow compared to the insane comments folks have left on your channel..that is all..really none of my business..I appreciate that you like what I do..You take care and God Bless.

Left WV for 30 years to work in corporate america. This song reminds me of what I left behind and why I returned. Poco could paint a dream. It took me a good time to slow down and smell the roses after my trek for the almighty dollar... but, I think I got the knack of it now : ) I love this song and the beauties of the nature around me every day. Makes me wonder why I ever left? I'll go no more!

Thank God he found his way home....thank you Jim for sharing the thoughts that came while you visited here/hear today...Love this ole song!! Still rings true for me, too.

[sherrylynn70]

We've been having some Indian summer here in West Virginia in November 2011. It might be leaving soon, but like this song...it has been wonderful. Loving every second of both.

Beautiful song. This was the last record Tim Schmit played on before he left for The Eagles. I have loved this record since it's release in 1977.

My home state is gone. I can't return to a land where greedy corporations now own and control everything, and treat it's people like so many potential sources of money.

POCO always reminds me of a beautiful place that really no longer exists.

Takes me back to the real Colorado.

Thanks for the trip home, Sherry!
