No one can take your place with me
When time has proven that I'm right
There's no place I'd rather be
Than at your place for the night
No time can pass your sight unseen
No moment steals away unfound
A lifetime lived in such a dream
Floats like a feather to the ground
And for the first time I've been seeing
The things I'd never notice
Without you
And for the first time I've been seeing

The first time I'm discovering
The things I used to treasure
About you
The birds like leaves on winter wood
Sing hopeful songs on dismal days
They've learned to live life as they should
They are at peace with nature's ways
You are as natural as the night
And all that springs from you is good
And the children born beneath you
Your life
Are like the birds on winter wood
And for the first time I've been seeing
The things I'd never notice
Without you
And for the first time I'm discovering
The things I used to treasure
About you
There are probably a lot of people out there who think that a situation like this,
having a concert recorded and having people in the room to listen to it is unnatural.
And they're right.
But I guess there are a lot of unnatural things that we've grown to take for granted.
And perhaps that isn't always a good thing.
I used to like to go to nightclubs every so often.
I'd sneak down and look and see what's happening.
But more and more I think there are fewer places where people can learn music and just love it.
I was lucky in the sense that I had people to learn from
who were not as good as I was.

People who had been playing music for many, many years
before they either died or quit or something.
I guess a long time ago people didn't get so famous as fast as they do these days.
You think about fame, it's sort of like the man who was run out of town
tarred and feathered and carried out on a rail.
And he asked, what's it like?
He said, well, if it weren't for the honor of the thing,
other thing I might just as well have walked.
This is a song that I learned from Josh White,
who was one of the first people I ever learned guitar from a long time ago.
I used to play it in his nightclub act.
It's called Where Were You Baby When My Heart Went Out.
And I've tried to keep the guitar pretty much the way he used to do it
because it's fun, first of all, trying to play the way he did.
Also, it hurts your fingers.
It hurts your fingers.
