    SOUNDTRACK: Dearest by The Black Keys & My Dear by The Tallest Man On Earth

    Soundtrack to Dearest Milton James by N.R. Walker

    A Buddy Holly classic for a book about two men in love separated by war and societal taboos

    You may be a million miles away
    please believe me – umm ya
    when you hear me say
    I love you – I love you

    Come home – keep me from these sleepless nights
    try my love again – umm ya
    I’m gonna treat you right – umm ya
    I’m gonna treat you right

    Soundtrack to Dearest Milton James: Dearest Malachi Keogh by N.R. Walker

    My Dear by The Tallest Man On Earth for a book about a man taking time to appreciate the colorful ray of sunshine with verbal diarrhea who changed his sensible, boring life.

    My body’s with the birds in me
    But my mind is with the times they’re leaving
    I want them but I let them go
    There’s a sparkle in the dust I breathe in

    My morning is empty and the streets are wide
    I look for nothing and I feel all right
    Stillness in the ways I try
    And then you walk on by

  • quote,  Uncategorized

    Dearest – though you’re the nearest to my heart
    please don’t ever – umm ya
    ever say we’ll part

    You scold and you were so bold
    yes together – umm ya
    our love will grow old – umm ya
    our love will grow old

    You may be a million miles away
    please believe me – umm ya
    when you hear me say
    I love you – I love you

    Come home – keep me from these sleepless nights
    try my love again – umm ya
    I’m gonna treat you right – umm ya
    I’m gonna treat you right

    My body’s in the summer storm
    And my mind is with the feeling after
    Old memories I can’t let go
    I’m moving on but they run faster

    My morning is empty and the streets are wide
    I look for nothing and I feel all right
    Stillness in the ways I try
    And then you walk on by

    My body says the water’s cold
    But my mind will have a way to cross it
    And I know I held the time so dear
    And the feeling it was here, I lost it

    My morning is empty and the streets are wide
    I look for nothing and I feel all right
    Stillness in the ways I try
    And then you walk on by

    In a patch in the forest
    Little bells hang from the tree
    And I ring them so gently
    What if you heard me now, my dear?

    My body’s with the birds in me
    But my mind is with the times they’re leaving
    I want them but I let them go
    There’s a sparkle in the dust I breathe in

    My morning is empty and the streets are wide
    I look for nothing and I feel all right
    Stillness in the ways I try
    And then you walk on by

    My morning is empty and the streets are wide
    I look for nothing and I feel all right, oh
    Stillness in the ways I try
    As I lean into the morning light
    It’s like my body’s in some other town
    And then you walk on by
