A dear friend of mine, and a wonderful singer/songwriter. These are the lyrics of his newest song.
Pakington street was the place we’d meet
when I was a younger man,
there used to be a rope factory, but now they call it The Strand.
not very far from Corio bay on the western side of town
the sky was blue and the wind was soft and the leaves were turning brown.
She was the girl with the honey blonde hair
with eyes so crystal bright,
I met her there on Pakington street on an April autumn night,
not very far from the place I lived on the western side of town,
when the sky was blue and the wind was soft
and the leaves were turning brown.
We used to share a drink or two and dance to the local bands,
She was my love, she was my life, she was my friend in hand
In my heart, I still feel the beat, I still see her dancing feet,
