Oh I know there is no place you can go to
And I know you don't know anyone at all
So come walking in the sun with me my little one
And remember that the only time is now
Well strange is the story your eyes tell me
And quiet all the few words that you say
So come and hold my hand for you see I'd understand
And remember that the only time is now
Oh I come to you a ragged laughing stranger
And you come to me an angel of the night
So I'll dance and we will sing, for it doesn't mean a thing
To remember that the only time is now
So forget about your yesterdays of sorrow
And forget about the darkness you have seen
For there's only you and me at the edge of an endless sea
And remember that the only time is now
"Lyrics: Garcia; music: The Grateful Dead
Sugar magnolia, blossoms blooming, heads all empty and I don’t care, Saw my baby down by the river, knew she’d have to come up soon for air.
Sweet blossom come on, under the willow, we can have high times if you’ll abide. We can discover the wonders of nature, rolling in the rushes down by the riverside.
She’s got everything delightful, she’s got everything I need,
Takes the wheel when I’m seeing double, pays my ticket when I speed.
She comes skimmin’ through rays of violet, she can wade in a drop of dew, She don’t come and I don’t follow, waits backstage while I sing to you.
Well, she can dance a cajun rhythm, jump like a willys in four wheel drive. She’s a summer love for spring, fall and winter. she can make happy any man alive.
Sugar magnolia, ringing that bluebell, caught up in sunlight, come on out singing I’ll walk you in the sunshine, come on honey, come along with me.
She’s got everything delightful, she’s got everything I need,
A breeze in the pines and the sun and bright moonlight, lazing in the sunshine yes Indeed.
Sometimes when the cuckoo’s crying, when the moon is half way down, Sometimes when the night is dying, I take me out and I wander around, I wander ’round.
Sunshine, daydream, walking in the tall trees, going where the wind goes. Blooming like a red rose, breathing more freely,
Ride our singin’, I’ll walk you in the morning sunshine
Sunshine, daydream. sunshine, daydream. walking in the sunshine.

Those who know me, know I have a fondness for the Dead...
I hear that it's written "all over me".

Oh how I wish the GD description were true but I think Cole Porter described it more precisely with respect to this hobby.
Love for sale,
Appetizing young love for sale.
Love that's fresh and still unspoiled,
Love that's only slightly soiled,
Love for sale.
Who will buy?
Who would like to sample my supply?
Who's prepared to pay the price,
For a trip to paradise?
Love for sale
Let the poets pipe of love
in their childish way,
I know every type of love
Better far than they.
If you want the thrill of love,
I've been through the mill of love;
Old love, new love
Every love but true love
Love for sale.
Perhaps one is more realistic than another...
more true in our day to day...
does this mean there is no benefit and no merit to the fantasy?
Give me
Your dirty love
Like you might surrender
To some dragon in your dreams
Give me
Your dirty love
Like a pink donation
To the dragon in your dreams
I don't need your sweet devotion
I don't want your cheap emotion
Just whip me up some dragon lotion
For your dirty love
Give me
Your dirty love
Like some tacky little pamphlet
In your daddy's bottom drawer
Give me
Your dirty love
I don't believe you have ever seen
That book before
I don't need no consolation
I don't want your reservation
I only got one destination
An' that's your dirty love
Give me
Your dirty love
Just like your mama
Make her fuzzy poodle do
Give me
Your dirty love
The way your mama
Make that nasty poodle chew
I'll ignore your cheap aroma
And your little-bo-peep diploma
I'll just put you in a coma
With some dirty love
THE POODLE BITES!
(Come on, Frenchie)
THE POODLE CHEWS IT!
(Snap it!)
THE POODLE BITES!
(Come on, Frenchie)
THE POODLE CHEWS IT!
(Snap it!)

[that is, to the Hobby . . . ]
There's a Rose
In a fisted glove
and the eagle flies with the dove
and if you can't be with the one you love
it's alright
Go ahead and love the one, love the one, love the one your with
love the one, love the one, love the one your with
If your guy can't come to you
and you don't remember who your talking to
your concentration slips away
because your baby, she is so so far away
chorus: And there's a rose in a fisted glove
and the eagle flies with the dove
and if you cant be with the one you love
love the one your with
Don't be angry
don't be sad
Don't sit cryin' for good times you had
There's a girl right next to you
and she's waiting for something to do
chorus
Do it
do it
do it
Turn your heartache into joy
She's a girl and your a boy
get together, make it tonight,
you ain't gonna need no more advice
chorus
Just love the one your with

Down the side streets and the avenues

but their hearts are weary

ladies, you both hit it squarely -- music by Jerry and lyrics by Hunter are unsurpassed in my mind by any artist, poet, musician, author etc that i have ever read or heard.
Garcia touched my soul so many times, both playing and singing.
i was through his playing that i got the closest i've come to a "religious experience or seeing god," both with and without the lysergic boost.
its always nice to run into fellow dead heads in any venue or forum.
best regards, cheers & peace.
O.F.
"We are everywhere"
: )
As to the closest you've come to a "religious experience or seeing god"... what about his playing, combined with a tantric release? Hmmmm...
Oh, yeah!
hey now sola, maybe we should meet up here in the emerald city -- i'll bring a few shows for ya! cheers
