Making love in the green grass behind the stadium with you my brown eyed girl.

If I ventured in the slipstream between the viaducts of your dreams, where immobile steel rims crack and the ditch in the back roads stop. Could you find me?
Van Morrison

I just wanted to have a look at my whole musical career, get right back to when I started and why I started doing it in the first place.
Van Morrison
Image
Have I told you lately that I love you, have I told you lately there's no one above you. Fill my heart with gladness, take away all my sadness, ease my troubles, that's what you do.
Van Morrison
Image
Let me purify my thoughts and words and deeds that I may be a vehicle for thee.

Won't You guide me through the dark night of the soul That I may better understand Your way... Let me purify my thoughts and words and deeds That I may be a vehicle for Thee... Give me my rapture today.
