Prism - Vladivostok
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87g5Rckyruk

Pulled into Vladivostok
Must have been a hundred degrees below
And I can't remember ever being that cold

Then they shackled us like criminals
And put us on a train
And we waited in the darkness and the snow

We awakened in the morning
As the train began to roll
And the freezing Russian winter
Had already claimed a soul

From mountains ever northward
Seemed like six or seven days
Till we finally saw the place we were to go

Hey Hey Vladivostok
What's it gonna be?
I'm so lonely, you're the only place that's left for me

Hey Hey Vladivostok
You got me on my knees
It's been so long since I went wrong
Someone help me, won't you please

I wish that I could see you
Hold you near just one more time
And hear you say the things you used to do

Well, lo and behold, I see before my eyes
A vision, apparition of you

You know I'd go a thousand miles
And I'd walk most all the way
Just to see you smile the way you do
The way you do

1. My dear Swede...
Alas, I'm using my laptop right now, and the sound on this is so damn tinny...

But I will listen later on my desktop. It has superior stereo sound!

:hi:

3. I just finished listening to it...
And it really moved me...

I actually felt a poem rise inside...

So I wrote it down as the song played...

I'll look back at it later, to see if I still like it.

Great song!

Thanks, Swede...

:hug:
