@Hotel Za Za and two for the price of one! ;-) Oh, and I'll pass on that spray tan-no porcelain skin here! ;-)

Dan Fogelberg-Nexus, Wealthy the Spirit...



Another song or rather album that I wore out playing when it came out!  I am such a Dan Fogelberg fan and miss his music with the passing of his un-timely death.  His was such a poet and his lyrics are brilliant--not to mention a great guitar player who once was asked by the Eagles to play in their band.  I regret that I never got to see him in concert but his music lives on and thanks to youtube for their endless videos of his music.  If you've never listed to this double album treat yourself to a rare gem of fine music from one of the best musicians in his day.  Thank you Dan for helping my spirit take flight and journey through the length of the light.

Across the vein of night
There cuts a path of searing light
Burning like a beacon
On the edges of our sight
At the point of total darkness
And the lights divine divide
A soul can let its shadow stretch
And land on either side --
either side.

And balanced on the precipice
The moment must reveal
Naked in the face of time
Our race within the wheel
As we hang beneath the heavens
And we hover over hell
Our hearts become the instruments
We learn to play so well.

Wealthy the spirit that knows its
own flight
Stealthy the hunter who slays
his own fright
Blessed the traveler who journeys
the length of the light.

Outside the pull of gravity
Beyond the spectral veil
Within our careful reasoning
We search to no avail
For the constant in the chaos
For the fulcrum in the void
Following a destiny
Our steps cannot avoid.

Across the vein of night
There cuts a path of searing light
Burning like a beacon
On the edges of our sight
At the point of total darkness
And the lights divine divide
A soul can let its shadow
Stretch and land on either side.

Wealthy the spirit that knows its
own flight
Stealthy the hunter who slays
his own fright
Blessed the traveler who journeys
the length of the light.

In a spiral never-ending
Are we drawn towards the source
Spinning at the mercy of an
unrelenting force
So we stare into the emptiness
and fall beneath the weight
Circling the Nexus in a
fevered dance with fate --

Wealthy the spirit that knows its
own flight
Stealthy the hunter who slays
his own fright
Blessed the traveler who journeys
the length of the light.

Florence and the Machine - Cosmic Love



This song never gets old and I killed the repeat button way back!

The stars, the moon, they have all been blown out....no dawn, no day..
I'm always in this twilight in the shadow of your heart...
