And Charlie Parker loves me


Silent as a willow tree
This road moves like a, a river to me
Sun goes down on Wisdom Street
Break the glass and throw away the key

Somewhere out where the fates collide
Cigarettes and candlelight
I sit here in the lone cafe
So stripped away (oh, oh)
So stripped away

Ah, huh…
Huh…huh
Oh, ah, oh, ah

Everybody knows
I'm your street corner Romeo
Everybody knows
You're my Juliet in rags
And Charlie Parker loves me

Rod Stewart - Charlie Parker Loves Me

Perfect alley for a street corner sax player in rags.

Uffa!! You have surpassed yourself. I don't know how you do it. You have the eye of an artist and the soul of a poet. Thank you.

Yvonne has said pretty much what I was thinking! I can't thank you enough for bringing us such wonderful, evocative images of Venice every day. (And how appropriate that there are birds in the photo, eh?)

A wonderful ambiance and a quiet moment at an outside table with warm sun on your back and a chair to rest your feet upon. Bliss!!
