If you could read my mind, love, what a tale my thoughts would tell. Just like an old time movie, about a ghost from a wishing-well.

And it was circa 1969-70 because I was still in the UK ... and the album it came from might have been something like: Sit Down Stranger (?)It's official, I'm a karma-slag ...
(Myself, I'm also fond of 'In The Early Morning Rain')

If that was a perfectly innocent remark, it was also a perfectly phrased one as well . . .
