On the last days of summer
Driving back home
Route 3 through the mountains
Barney Hill holding Betty’s hand
As the sky opened up
On their Bel-Air
One Tuesday night
Sunday dinner
Revelations
I was thirteen
When she told me the number
Scared of the end
And when I got home
My mother took me to talk to the priest
And he laughed
When I told him
My best friends
Had a baby girl
And she was born
With a head of hair
There’s one more blessing
Alive in the world
And one holy sister
Left in my town
Guess I won’t be a mother
This time around

J'avais vu son dernier spectacle au FME en 2021, mais j'ai l'impression que ça passé comme une étoile filante! Le son était incroyable! Va falloir qu'il le refasse. C'était tellement magique. Lavinie Cloutier
