Annotationen

Song für Janis Joplin. Joe McDonald und Janis Joplin waren kurz ein Paar, doch er verliess sie für seine künftige Frau, Robin Menken. Dieses Lied war eine Art Abschiedslied, das sich Jnais von Joe gewünscht hat.
Der Song klingt sehr ähnlich wie die Musik der schottischen Incredible String Band.

Lyrics

Into my life on waves of electrical sound And flashing light she came Into my life with the twist of a dial The wave of her hand The warmth of her smile And even though I know that You and I Could never find The kind of love we wanted together Alone I find myself missing You and I You and I It's not very often that something Special happens and you (You and I) Happen to be that something special for me And walking on grass Where we were and laughed in the moonlight I find Myself Thinking of You and I Into my eye come visions of patterns Designs the image of her I see Into my mind The smell of her hair The sound of her voice We once were there And even though I know that You and I Could never find The kind of love we wanted together Alone I find myself missing You and I You and I
