Since I moved out to Colorado (living in the shadows of the mountains) I've grown attached to Neil Young's OLD MAN. I have no real insight into why this might be. I welcome close reading with suggestions as to why this song now makes sense to me. Lyrics.
My guess is it's these lyrics that seem familiar and more appropriate than ever....
"Old man look at my life,
Twenty four
and there's so much more
Live alone in a paradise
That makes me think of two."
Yeah, maybe it's that. Though I, of late, feel less alone in Fort Collins. I'm meeting people, and now know enough people that I occassionally bump into "friends" (acquaintances) on the street.
