The Sidewalk Cafe

One of the very first songs I wrote many years ago was a jazzy ballad called The Sidewalk Cafe.  When I wrote it, I imagined this fictional place at the end of a long dark street that was lit up with music, laughter, people talking... the sounds of life. People would go there to find old friends and meet new loves. I imagined it to be a magical place that you felt you had to return to, because that's where you felt at peace, you felt at home. Everyone was safe there and it's where all our humble wishes came true. To this day, whenever I listen to it, or better yet, when I play and sing it, it still  takes me far away to that place in my imagination....


Try it out for yourself...what do you see?
