Every time I hear this song or try to play it I get tears in my eyes. He was one of a kind songwriter and his legacy lives on in each and every one of us.

I never realized how much I missed Stan. His talents, shared in folk festivals, and small concerts across Canada.I feel so honoured, that I had met him. Hearts keep breaking for the man, who knew how to steal your heart, with music that carried your soul with him across Canada! Thank You!

Where the earth shows it's bones of wind broken stone And the sea and the sky are one I'm caught out of time my blood sings with wine and I'm running naked in the sun There's God in the trees I'm weak in the knees and the sky is a painful blue I'd like to look around but honey all I see is you The summer city lights will soften the night Till you think that the air is clear I'm sitting with friends where forty five cents will buy another glass of beer she's got something to say but I'm so far away that I don't know who she's talking to Cause you just walked in the door and honey all I see is you (chorus) And I just want to hold you closer then I've ever held anyone before you say you've been twice a wife and your through with life ah, but honey what the Hells it for? After twenty three years you think I could find a way to let you know some how That I wanna see your smiling face forty five year from now Alone in the lights on stage every night I've been reachin out to find a friend Who know all the words sings so she's heard and know how all the stories end maybe after the show she'll ask me to go home with her for a drink or two now her smile lights her eyes but honey All I see is you Chorus
