What a shot you could be....
... if you could shoot at me with those...
Once upon a time there was a girl... a skinny blonde with coke bottle granny glasses. She was always reading a book, or listening to music. She was in love with me, I think. But she wasn't one of the "cool kids", it was 1974-75, and of course in high school image is all important. I googled her name recently out of curiosity, and found out she is now a nationally known yoga teacher - and drop dead gorgeous. (of course she was gorgeous then too - I was just blind is all.)
I dreamt of her that night. Woke in the middle of the night, 3 a.m. or so, and had to hear this song from our time then - it still holds up for me.
As for my spiritual blindness then and loss due to same... in the immortal words of Red Foreman...
