She dies in the 80's, beautiful song about her, she did the cover art also, he wants hert to fogert the cheathing i supose, but that is hard.  He wants het to love him as it was, is this riht>?

Damn man, for the love of God please re-read what you've written as it's becoming more and more nonsensical everyday.Pinch

Anyway, to get on topic:

Ah, hell, I don't even know exactly what you're saying, could you rephrase it so it's a bit more understandable please?Smile

Genesis is a classic for every "fingerpicker"... Quite easy to play, it's a little jewel in an album that is a "must" for every acoustic guitar lover...  Although I've been playing this song for a long time I don't know if it's about Jorma's wife... "Time has come for us to pause / And think of living as it was / Into the future we must cross..." Lyrics seem to draw a bridge between past and future where to stop and take the time to think about life...
 
By the way, if you like tha album "Quah", try also "Greenhouse" by Leo Kottke...

Reading the original post brings to mind a line from a Peter Gabriel song, "Strange is your language, and I have no decoder, why don't you make your intention clear?"

(I don't remember)

Bring me my broadsword, and clear understanding.
