This song is for you, Leon . . RIP
I know your image of me is what I hope to be
I treated you unkindly, but darling can't you see
There's no one more important to me
Darling can't you please see through me
'Cause we're alone now and I'm singing this song to you
You taught me precious secrets
Of the truth, withholding nothing
You came out in front and I was hiding
But now, I'm so much better
And if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody, 'cause my love's in there hiding
I love you in a place where there's no space and time
I love you for my life, you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song to you
But I love you in a place where there's no space and time
I love you for my life, you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
We were alone and I was singing my song
Singing this song for you
I know your image of me is what I hope to be
I treated you unkindly, but darling can't you see
There's no one more important to me
Darling can't you please see through me
'Cause we're alone now and I'm singing this song to you
You taught me precious secrets
Of the truth, withholding nothing
You came out in front and I was hiding
But now, I'm so much better
And if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody, 'cause my love's in there hiding
I love you in a place where there's no space and time
I love you for my life, you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song to you
But I love you in a place where there's no space and time
I love you for my life, you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
We were alone and I was singing my song
Singing this song for you

The worst part of getting older is the people you lose along the way. Dang.
Oh, and dear, that's THREE this week LOL (inside joke)Whoa... Leon is awesome. One of my favorites:
He was suppose to have been in Rocky Mount on the day of the Pitt game but he canceled because of the heart Attack(I think) so I went to the Pitt game instead.

Damn. Leon was a great musician. Tight rope is one of the first songs I learned to play on Piano and guitar.
Saw him sit in with the Tedeschi Trucks Band at Lockn' a few years ago for the Mad Dogs and the Englishmen cover set. 2016 has really sucked
