What a dream I had...pressed in organdy, clothed in crinoline of smoky burgundy softer than the rain.
I wandered empty streets down past the shop displays. I heard cathedral bells dripping down the alleyways as I walked on.
And when you ran to me your cheeks flushed with the night. We walked on frosted fields of juniper and lamplight- I held your hand.
And when I awoke and felt you warm and near I kissed your honey hair with my grateful tears. I love you girl. I love you.
--Paul Simon

...audio isn't great, but it's live video of one of the smoothest tenor voices ever (in a fantastic sweater) with possibly the greatest song-writer of all time, playing the crap out of his 12-string.
Truly beautiful.
I'm wondering--does she live in Ferney?!
