I close this set now with my current favourite song... Which is about a place in Toronto called Yorkville Avenue. It's kind of a small scale Greenwich Village or Chicago Oldtown, or a large scale Detroit Plum Street.

Funny day, looking for laughter and finding it there Sunny day, braiding wild flowers and leaves in my hair Picked up a pencil and wrote "I love you" in my finest hand Wanted to send it, but I don't know where I stand Telephone, even the sound of your voice is still new All alone in Carolina and talking to you And feeling too foolish and strange...Learn More

I guess my best ambassador is a fella named Tom Rush, who does my second song, "Urge For Going", and err, and he also does this one, so I'm hoping that maybe you've heard it before and you'll know the chorus, because it's great to get a whole room full of people singing on it It's a song all about the carousel of time, and err, it has a line in it...Learn More
