Watching and listening, I feel palpably behind your closed eyes as though mine, geoffrey. xxx

i think it's one of the most holy songs leonard has composed. feel in a way that by covering it i have committed a sacrilegious act. it is really nice of you to comment, lizzie - thank you :-)

Your last verse is really beautiful, Geoffrey, especially the last line. I'm trying to get to that place.

Hi Geoffrey,

Sacrilege, no. Paying it high honor, yes. :)

hey abby, and thank you - these words are truly comforting. i'm afraid i took an enormous liberty with leonard's song. with every passing hour the delete button looks more and more irresistible, and therefore i appreciate your message. xxx

I'm not sure, but it's a song that stills you (you meaning me). I think that my heart beat slows down when I listen to it.

I cannot begin to express what I wish for you in respect to what I have read here over the past months.
Your cover is very good, and passioantely expressed. When/if the time comes for the sun to warm
the place where your heart will again be touched, you will have a legion of well-wishers on both sides
of the veil championing you. Be well Geoffrey, my healing friend.

what a wonderful surprise to find this from you here today. thank you so much, kind naomi. you really like my version of 'show me the place'? it was not planned at all, just a mad 'spur of the moment' occasion in the middle of the night. i had been communicating with leonard via telepathy, something we often do when everyone is asleep, and as i neared the end of his song he gave me these extra lyrics :D
