"Once upon a midnight dearie
I woke with something in my head
I couldn't escape the memory
Of a phone call and of what you said
Like a game show contestant with a parting gift
I could not believe my eyes
When I saw through the voice of a trusted friend
Who needs to humor me and tell me lies
Yeah humor me and tell me lies
And I'll lie too and say I don't mind
And as we seek so shall we find
And when you're feeling open I'll still be here
But not without a certain degree of fear
Of what will be with you and me
I still can see things hopefully
But you
Why you wanna give me a run-around
Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up
When all it does is slow me down......."

This was was a real virtuoso with an interesting repertoire and real musicianship. I had never seen such a player before ( apparently they are regular street muscians across Europe ) and was quite fascinated. During subsequent visits to Venice I saw a younger man also performing beautifully.
This is a street musician who plays to the tourists in Stratford upon Avon, UK. He plays to raise money to support a local Air Ambulance Helicopter. So far he has raised over £22.600.
