…when I’m gone

This is sentimental for me in so many ways. I saw James Taylor sing this today as an aging man fighting his emotions at the 9/11 ceremony.
In this clip, he’s the boy we all fell for in the seventies. His eyes, the hair, and now I remember, the relaxed confidence of youth… all so beautifully poignant.
I sang this to both of my children as lullabies when they were babies.
We’ve all gone through so much… this man, me, my friends, our nation… the words ring truer now than then.
