    This is a 'first take' on the first song I ever recorded in a professional studio. It opens the upcoming album to be entitled, AMERICAN GOTHIC. "Cross Avenue" has a poetic down-hardedness that still has heart.

    Lyrics
    CROSS AVENUE

    I saw the world
    on the wings of a dove;
    the earth looked smaller
    than your love.
    One tear from your eye,
    well it held the whole night sky.

    On top of one another
    like a couple of spoons,
    rolling in the heather
    under a paper moon.
    Summer would be over,
    over and blue.

    And I can't say
    that I'm over you.
    I can't say that I'm done.
    Both night and day
    down on Cross Avenue,
    I'm waiting for someone.

    And friends were saying
    I was wasting time
    like a washed-up poet
    who refused to rhyme
    but sometimes your heart can know
    what your thoughts don't wanna mind.

    And you're light and lovely
    as an evening rose.
    Pale in moonlight,
    your perfume bestows
    a memory of kisses
    that the thornbird knows.

    And I can't say
    that I'm over you.
    I can't say that I'm done.
    Both night and day
    down on Cross Avenue,
    I'm waiting for someone...
