Ross James of the Terrapin Family Band
My brother Brian P talked me into signing up
to perform Live Karaoke
at the Terrapin Crossroads venue
with the Terrapin Family Band.
I had reheased the song "Sugar Magnolia",
but when I got to Terrapin Crossroads and saw
the setlist, I decided this song didnīt fit.
Grahame Lesh of the Terrapin Family Band shows up
& I ask him if they know Bob Dylanīs song, "Seņor".
And Grahame answers, "Yeah, I think we can do that one".
There were so many cables on the floor of the stage that night
when I first performed with the Terrapin Family Band.
The whole restaurant scene was rearranged and different.
This picture reminds me, this band is educational for me.

The Same Sky El Mismo Cielo
Although it's the same sky and the same sun
Aunque es el mismo cielo y es el mismo sol
They are the same streets but I am not
Son las mismas calles pero yo no soy
I am not the same
No soy el mismo
And like a tourist I can walk
Y como un turista puedo caminar
Discovering new things as I go
Descubriendo cosas nuevas al andar
Why are you with me
Por qué estás conmigo
Why are you with me I start to discover
Por qué estás conmigo empiezo a descubrir
The simple things I didn't live before
Las cosas sencillas que antes no viví
The voice of the sea &the stars that speak so much about you
La voz del mar y las estrellas que hablan tanto de ti
The voice that screams in the silence that you want me here
La voz que grita en el silencio que me quieres aquí
Close to you
Cerca de ti
Your kiss and every drop that wets me as I walk
El beso tuyo y cada gota que me moja al andar
The light that flows in the sound of a child crying
La luz que fluye en el sonido de un pequeņo al llorar
You make me live, you make me laugh, and breathe
Me haces vivir, me haces reír, y respirar
Although you were with me I couldn't understand
Aunque estabas conmigo no pude entender
That I was surrounded by so much pleasure
Que estaba rodeado de tanto placer
By so many reasons
De tantos motivos
And from my routine I had to break free
Y
de mi rutina tuve que salir
To stop and see you smile
Para detenerme y verte sonreír
And feel alive
Y sentirme viva
Because you are with me I start to discover
Porque estás conmigo empiezo a descubrir
The simple things I didn't live before
Las cosas sencillas que antes no viví
The voice of the sea &the stars that speak so much about you
La
voz del mar y las estrellas que hablan tanto de ti
The voice that screams in the silence that you want me here
La voz que grita en el silencio que me quieres aquí
Close to you
Cerca de ti
Your kiss in every drop that wets me as I walk
El beso tuyo en cada gota que me moja al andar
The light that flows in the sound of a child crying
La luz que fluye en el sonido de un pequeņo al llorar
You make me live, you make me laugh, and breathe
Me haces vivir, me haces reír, y respirar
And breathe, Lord, my God
Y respirar, seņor, mi Dios
You make me live, laugh, sing
Me haces vivir, reír, cantar
And breathe
Y respirar
And breathe
Y respirar
