The lyrics speak to the warmth and peace of "home." The song takes its time to patiently move towards the perfect conclusion. This version has the fabulous Kenny Edwards on mandolin (now passed away) of the Stone Poneys and Bryndle, and the incredibly talented Nina Gerber on steel guitar. Karla just played LAST NIGHT at the Triple Door in Seattle. We were not able to go because we have guests, though we did go last year when she was here.<br /><br />I hope everyone of your readers takes the time to listen to the song!Sheboyganboy VInoreply@blogger.com
