Sideways through time
It's an electric line

So many people have come and gone
Their faces fade as the years go by
Yet I still recall as I wander on
As clear as the sun in the summer sky

She was my woman
I loved her so
But it's too late now
I've let her go

@Honeyroar - it is. Well done. Love that song.

I often think of @WhipperSnapperSteve too. Hope she's ok. We'll have to entice her back somehow. ❤️

I had that cassette on until the tape stretched beyond repair one year

ClearingSpaceOnTheTrophyShelf · 15/01/2021 19:58

Are you the cleverest of us all, midge?

Or are you just a geek?

shinynewapple2021 · 15/01/2021 19:58

From indigo to royal blue
I travel far but no one will do
Any time any place
Every shape every face
Brings memories of you

Possibly more nerd than geek although at work I am ( virtually) surrounded by geeks

I have said before I am happy to stay at the bottom of any ladders ... I have never had any coolness ranking so I am comfortable at the bottom and get scared of heights
