I’m in Rome today. These lyrics have been with me forever. Today more than most
“oh the streets of Rome are filled with rubble. Ancient footprints are everywhere.”
A beautiful statement of
hope.
”someday, everything’s gonna be different….when I paint my masterpiece”.
Well, I am probably not the only one that harkens to wings a mile long.
And if I step a little outside GD canon there’s the incredibly evocative notion that Big John’s been drinking since the river took Emmy Lou.
