    Inspired by Cuby & the Blizzards - Window of my Eyes
    From the album Trippin' thru a midnight blues (1968)

    Through the window of my eyes
    I can see a rainy day
    Sittin' in the chair of my own
    Looking for a way to be the one who I am
    It's useless to cry for the things I was unknown
    Thinking it will come back and reach my home

    It's like a distant, like a distant face
    It's like a shadow on my wall
    Something that, that I can't touch
    It's heavenly, as it calls

    Shelter of my mind hides my love and my tear
    I keep on looking for a reason which is not here

      Wonderful--it looks like Lucis to bring out all the wonderful textures and detail. A lovely scene.

      Prachtige plaat die de huidige weersomstandigheden prima weer geeft... Zomerse kleuren, maar buien alom... Schitterend!

      Cuby fan hè. Dit tafereeltje kun je overal in Groningen vinden, maar je weet er net weer iets moois van te maken. Zoals je al zei: eenvoud is the magic word. Prachtig.
