"In Your Time"

[Heidi]

Sweet dreams, Nighthawks. I've work to do for a while. I leave you with the lyrics to the song I'm listening to over and over this morning:

"In Your Time," words and music by Bob Seger

In your time
The innocence will fall away
In your time
The mission bells will toll
All along
The corridors and river beds
There’ll be sign
In your time

Towering waves
Will crash across your southern capes
Massive storms
Will reach your eastern shores
Fields of green

Will tumble through your summer days
By design
In your time

Feel the wind
And set yourself the bolder course
Keep your heart
As open as a shrine
You’ll sail the perfect line

And after all
The dead ends and the lessons learned
After all
The stars have turned to stone
There’ll be peace
Across the great unbroken void
All benign
In your time
You’ll be fine
In your time

[enigmatic]

4. He y Heidi

You tell me there's an angel in your tree
Did he say he'd come to call on me
For things are getting desperate in our home
Living in the parish of the restless folks I know

Everybody now bring your family down to the riverside
Look to the east to see where the fat stock hide
Behind four walls of stone the rich man sleeps
It's time we put the flame torch to their keep

Burn down the mission
If we're gonna stay alive
Watch the black smoke fly to heaven
See the red flame light the sky

Burn down the mission
Burn it down to stay alive
It's our only chance of living
Take all you need to live inside

Deep in the woods the squirrels are out today
My wife cried when they came to take me away
But what more could I do just to keep her warm
Than burn burn burn burn down the mission walls

[Heidi]

6. This is what Call Me Wesley and I call "our song":

Into the Mystic," by Van Morrison

We were born before the wind
Also younger than the sun
Ere the bonnie boat was won as we sailed into the mystic
Hark, now hear the sailors cry
Smell the sea and feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic

And when that fog horn blows I will be coming home
And when that fog horn blows I want to hear it
I don’t have to fear it
I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
Then magnificently we will float into the mystic
And when that fog horn blows you know I will be coming home
And when thst fog horn whistle blows I got to hear it
I don’t have to fear it
I want to rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And together we will float into the mystic
Come on girl...

7. always a good song

18. Oh Heidi, I love that song!

"Into the mystic...."

God, I can just float away to that song!

Have a good day, my friend! :loveya:

9. Bob Seger is a tradition and a treasure here in Michigan.

My favorite is still his segue from Travelin Man to Beautiful loser. Not his best songs, but a man on top of his game with magic.

[Heidi]

10. His voices makes me

*swoon*. :blush:

[hickman1937]

11. Turn The Page.

Best on the road song ever. Jackson Brown's Stay is good, but Turn The Page says so much about his days before he made any real money. He used to play at sock hops in Walled Lake in the 60's
Edit for forgot to hit shift.

12. Great minds . . .

I asked enigmatic to play that song on his radio program earlier this morning.

17. Heidi, here is my favorite Bob Seger.

Words and music by bob seger

Took a look down a westbound road,
Right away I made my choice
Headed out to my big two-wheeler,
I was tired of my own voice
Took a bead on the northern plains
And just rolled that power on

Twelve hours out of mackinaw city
Stopped in a bar to have a brew
Met a girl and we had a few drinks
And I told her what I’d decided to do
She looked out the window a long long moment
Then she looked into my eyes
She didn’t have to say a thing,
I knew what she was thinkin’

Roll, roll me away,
Won’t you roll me away tonight
I too am lost, I feel double-crossed
And I’m sick of what’s wrong and what’s right
We never even said a word,
We just walked out and got on that bike
And we rolled
And we rolled clean out of sight

We rolled across the high plains
Deep into the mountains
Felt so good to me
Finally feelin’ free

Somewhere along a high road
The air began to turn cold
She said she missed her home
I headed on alone

Stood alone on a mountain top,
Starin’ out at the great divide
I could go east, I could go west,
It was all up to me to decide
Just then I saw a young hawk flyin’
And my soul began to rise
And pretty soon
My heart was singin’

Roll, roll me away,
I’m gonna roll me away tonight
Gotta keep rollin, gotta keep ridin’,
Keep searchin’ till I find what’s right
And as the sunset faded
I spoke to the faintest first starlight
And I said next time
Next time
We’ll get it right

On edit, I know that Rusty Dennis wanted Bruce Springsteen's Thunder Road in the movie about Rocky Dennis, because he was a Bruce fan, but when Bruce demanded too much money Bob didn't. At the time they were about equal in popularity.

15. My dear Heidi.....

What beautiful lyrics these are...

I can especially identify with the ones you've underlined.....

They speak to me, and I think you know why.

For I have done that, here, in the Lounge.....

Thank you

Hope your work is going well today......



:loveya: :loveya: :hug: :hug:

[Heidi]

16. Hi, Peggy!

I know you've done that, here, in the Lounge. I especially love the line "set yourself a bolder course." It doesn't hurt any of us to set a bolder course for ourselves, once in a while. ;)

It's been a good day, and it'll be a good evening, too, because it's Call Me Wesley's night to cook. :rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

19. Hello again, Peggy!

Always love seeing you! :loveya: :hug: :loveya:
