think of me

the vivid green of a windowsill potted basil plant in yesterday afternoon's sunshine

and Mr. Smells Good, Soft As Can Be, Always a Comfort Cat - Oliver

Hello, it's me
I've thought about us for a long, long time
Maybe I think too much but something's wrong
There's something here that doesn't last too long
Maybe I shouldn't think of you as mine

Think of me
You know that I'd be with you if I could
I'll come around to see you once in a while
Or if I ever need a reason to smile
And spend the night if you think I should

Todd Rundgren

One of the first songs I ever remember loving, released in 1968

  3. you know I have the TR album called "with a twist" its tres cool its todd singing his hits in a kind of island lounge way - its infused with middle aged wistfulness.

  5. We think of you often. Jacob thinks of the cats often. I'm not sure how the cats would enjoy that.

  7. Todd! Makes me want to rummage in my trunk of LP's and give him a spin on the turntable.
