Been on a nostalgia trip, big band from my growing up in the 80s. A beautiful guitar riff (that Johnny Marr eh) and wonderful lyrics. It takes me right back, "As Antony said to Cleopatra as he opened a crate of ale"...

I wait to see the darkness dying
Gentle touch where she's lying
Slides her soft warm body next to mine
She's breathing soft, almost sighing
Last parts of her dreams flying
As I kiss the nighttime from her eyes

I love that early mornin' kind of love
When she makes real
What I've been dreaming of
When we're so close the two of us
Melt into just one
I love that early mornin' kind of love

Lord knows when I hold her
Lying soft against my shoulder
Like an angel come from up above
I taste the honey on her lips
Soft touch of her fingertips
I love that early mornin' kind of love

Tangled sheets and thrown off covers
Left behind by morning lovers
Cow gone off the fence another day
Right when we both go to sleep
We'll pray the Lord our souls to keep
So we can wake up in that special way

I love that early mornin' kind of love
When she makes real
What I've been dreaming of
When we're so close the two of us
Melt into just one
I love that early mornin' kind of love

Listening to Chuck Berry all day. Been getting more and more into classic 50s rock and roll over the last couple of years.

Clint Eastwood -- When I Sing About You

[video=youtube;2WkqnFe9XsI]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WkqnFe9XsI[/video]

Telephone, but I can't dial it
Hands are shaking
I'll have to file it away
What I was wanting to say
I love you and think I could say it
Though it's true I can't even pray it at night
Just never comes out right

But when I sing about you
Every word is at my command
My guitar comes alive in my hand
When I sing about you
When I sing about you
Every note seems to be right on key
Oh, it all sounds so right to me
When I sing about you

I wrote it down but I can't send it
It's all over so I'll have to mend it again
How many times has it been?
I love you, think I could show it
Though it's true you'll never know that I care
It really doesn't seem fair

But when I sing about you
Every word is at my command
My guitar comes alive in my hand
When I sing about you
When I sing about you
Every note seems to be right on key
Oh, it all sounds so right to me
When I sing about you
