Song to Share with Friends

It's Neil Young time. That guy is a wonderful poet, and a wonderful musician. I love him.
This song can go hand in hand with my last post. It's a good song.

One of these days,
I'm gonna sit down
and write a long letter
To all the good friends I've known
And I'm gonna try
And thank them all
for the good times together.
Though so apart we've grown.

One of these days,
I'm gonna sit down
and write a long letter
To all the good friends I've known
One of these days,
one of these days,
one of these days,
And it won't be long, it won't be long.

And I'm gonna thank,
That old country fiddler
And all those rough boys
Who play that rock 'n' roll
I never tried to burn any bridges
Though I know I let some good things go.

One of these days,
I'm gonna sit downand write a long letter
To all the good friends I've known
One of these days,
one of these days,
one of these days,
And it won't be long, it won't be long.

From down in L.A.
All the way to Nashville,
From New York City
To my Canadian prairie home
My friends are scattered
Like leaves from an old maple.
Some are weak, some are strong.

One of these days,
I'm gonna sit down
and write a long letter
To all the good friends I've known
One of these days,
one of these days,
one of these days,
And it won't be long, it won't be long.

One of these days,
one of these days,
one of these days,
And it won't be long, it won't be long.

So like most songs out there, it isn't COMPLETELY like me. In this case, it's just trivial things: I've never known any country fiddlers, nor any rough boys who rock and roll (but that sounds pretty hott!). Don't have any friends in Nashville or New York, and I'm definitely not from Canad-d-d-a (I always butcher the pronunciation when I say that country's name for some odd reason. It's fun.). I do have old friends in the LA area, though. But yeah, it's a good song to sing. And it does make me want to sit down and write a long letter to all the good friends I've known, but right now, I'll settle for sitting down and writing a long blog entry to all y'all who read it. And to all my friends... I'm thinking of you! =)

PS: I wish you guys could hear it. It's a bit country-ish, but, in my definition, "good country." He does country/folk/rock stuff, which is just my cup of tea. But songs are never quite the same just reading them and hearing them, and honestly, they are meant to be heard. Oh well.
