The Fly
The other post about favorite lines brought this songwriter to my mind. I'd read where Bruce Cockburn had referred to the late Mark Heard as his favorite lyricist at one point....even recording a song in memory called "Closer to the Light".
Anyway, he was a prolific songwriter who never got "big".
one of my favorite lines:
"Before I could fashion my poverty / Before I mistrusted the night / I must've known something...I must've known something / Those are the days I live for tonight / Why, why why?...Tell me why, momma, why? / Why can't I sleep in peace tonight, underneath the Satellite Sky?"
Appropriate for these times, methinks.
