L ate night
eh bird
surrounded by your darkness
and just can’t sleep
out on the peck
moon lit and cobble stoned
again
feelin’ blue
watcha’ seekin’
curious bird
your lost soul
the reason why
perhaps another chance
maybe — time enough
or jus’a beakful
o’forgiveness

This following video is Joni Mitchel, with guitarist Pat Metheny, the extraordinary bassist Jaco Pastorius, Lyle Mays on keyboards, Michael Brecker on sax, and Don Alias on drums. Genuflect and bow your head — one of the great touring bands of all times… look & listen!
