couple of additional items a few years ago I ran into BUDDY at GEORGES GRILL. We chatted for a bit about Ms Alexanders first grade class at STEERE then Buddy said "you know why I learned to play the guitar Hutch?" I shook my head and he said "because you and Andy {teekell)told me I sucked at baseball." Now I can't imagine Andrew and I being that opinionated and direct but if Buddy says it happened then it did. and finally as you all know I never was one to say much. I became a songwriter because there were things I was afraid to or did not know how to say. Lyrics became my vehicle of expression. i was at a point of frustration over making friends only to have life take them in a different direction.I wrote ONE LAST TIME for friends to have something to hold onto. remember all the times gone by like a setting sun on the western sky and i hope you will think of me and all the times that used to be. the time has come for us to find our separate pathes one more time so lets take one last look at the memories of times we took. the scene is one that we will find are fixtures back there in our minds and i hope you think of me somewhere down the line one last time now its time to say goodbye and think about the reasons wny I know i will think of you whenever times get low or blue .the time we spent will always be a very special memory so lets take one last look at those memories of times we took this scene is one that we will find are fixtures back there in our minds and i know i will think of you somewhere down the line one last time..............................if you where one of those that went to get help when i broke bones on the ballfield, or tried to convince me your mom put squash in her pancakes, or was the girlfriend i didnt know how to talk or even the guy that learned to play the guitar this was written for you. that is more than all of you heard me say cumulatively from 59 till 71 and no i do not know wtf happened.
