I bet you don't remember
the whistling in "Goodbye Stranger"
I bet you don't even like
Supertramp very much.
When I come home to visit
I want to sit in the living room
in the dark
and listen to vinyl records on the
turntable
through the speakers that are older than
I am
I want to see only by the greenish
blueish light of the tuner
maybe one oil lamp
for old times' sake,
you know?
Not very different
from what I do for present times' sake
the glow of the tuner
me
alone with the sound.
