1988

1988
It was so long ago but to me it seems like yesterday, 
times were great and music was something to die for. 
I lived in a secure world of good friend and parties 
and days out in the sun. My music was the Bangles and T’Pau 
all singing about love and freedom. I was in love 
through the summer, my emotions setting the world on fire. 
I’d get my YTS money and I’d go to Wales and live my life 
in an intense three months of love with a Welsh gal. 
My friends were the best and the future looked bright. 
Yes I did discover you can live your dreams and dream your life.
