"You could have been one of these things first... My first... My last"


"You could have been one of these things first... first... last"

Ok... so, I borrowed these<b> lyrics </font></b>from a Nick Drake song... what a beautiful song<b>... lyrics... </font></b>melody... and, part of the "Garden State" soundtrack...

I guess you could have been all of these things for me... back then... I might not have been able see... but, now... I can appreciate butterfly approaching... those wings slowly opening... seeing the colors of your mind... in the back of mine... I can taste flavors beyond... what a young man lusted after... a whole long lifetime... could have been our end...

I would have stayed beside you... a real lover... read like a book... slowly with an easy going manner... turn pages your own pace... let the words flow of you with grace... live by... storm by... to explode... to relax... to feel... hmm... to make heart beat faster... then slow... then faster... then whatever you need ... shiver...

let dive into your ocean... let tilt face ever so gently... let see sweat from your face... let taste both sets of your lips... a lick here... a kiss there... can you see the real ... I've seen you from a distance... waiting... wondering... when will you be first... when can we share moment of passion...

would you be... could you be... I am but a simple man... not for long walks the sand... maybe...

could you be mine... true... untrue... some version of you... could see ... as a first..
...........................................................................................
"I could have been a sailor, could have been a cook
A real live lover, could have been a book.
I could have been a signpost, could have been a clock
As simple as a kettle, steady as a rock.
I could be
Here and now
I would be, I should be
But how?
I could have been
One of these things first
I could have been
One of these things first.
I could have been your pillar, could have been your door
I could have stayed beside you, could have stayed for more.
Could have been your statue, could have been your friend,
A whole long lifetime could have been the end.
I could be yours so true
I would be, I should be through and through
I could have been
One of these things first
I could have been
One of these things first.
I could…” - Nick Drake - "One of these things first"

Happy NYE to you I hope you have a very safe and happy one. And these words really jumped out at me today, and this is the first song that came to my mind. An Old School Oldie but a Goodie..

You're the First, My Last, My Everything

Barry White

My first, the last, my everything
And the answer to all my dreams
You're my sun, my moon, my guiding star
My kind of wonderful, that's what you are

I know there's only, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two
You're all I'm living for, your love I'll keep forevermore
First, you're the last, my everything

And with you I've found so many things
A love so new, only you could bring
Can't you see it's you? You make me feel this way (Can't you see it's you?)
You're like a first morning dew on a brand new day

I see so many ways that I
Can love you 'til the day I die
You're my reality, yet I'm lost in a dream
You're the first, the last, my everything

I know there's only, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two
Girl, you're my reality, but I'm lost in a dream
You're the first, you're the last, my everything
You and me babe is you

Seduce the mind and see what a wonderful adventure the body will take you on..

Hi Tmptrzz

thanks for stopping by to read and comment on this classic by Nick Drake

My daughter made me watch the movie "Garden State" where I was introduced to this gem from 1971.

oh, and this Barry White oldie is a goodie

thanks for sharing the memory with me

I luv it when you share songs with me

I hope we can continue thru 2020 and beyond

have a safe holiday!

wishing a great recovery for your husband!

At my age, I doubt I could ever be anyone's first but ---ahhh, to his last? *sigh*

"You are the sun
I am the moon
You are the words
I am the tune
Play me"

Oh.. Such a sweet post. I sometimes look back to moments in my past and think about the experience. If I knew then, what I know now....

Hi BJ

thanks for taking the time to sort thru this one

anyone can be made loved to for the first time

it is my experience that I want to share with a lover

My moments of intimacy can not be the same as when I was a teenager, those were totally different times for this version of me

the way I looked at women was different than it is now

what if my next was my last, I want to cherish those moments

some call it foolish, I call it me

I've said no so many times, yes, so few times

my girlfriend's mom took us to see Neil Diamond years ago, I never forget, however, it was only years later that I grew to appreciate his lyrical genius

I hope that 2020 and beyond is what you want it to be

Hi secret_lade

thanks for reading, thinking and commenting on my post today

and, the kind words

those are the thoughts I like to see in a response

a trigger to something special, something that moved you

and, sometimes, we second guess ourselves

but, here we are back in the learning pot

I want to keep living till I can't learn anymore
