Beside You

about this song

This song starts with lyrics evocative of childhood experiencies using poetic imagery about a young boy who wanders through his neighbourhood, and beyond. (The boy's name appears to be an abbreviation of George Ivan Morrison). It probably brings out nostalgia in many of us who meandered similarly. Your present writer, in fact, sees mental images of the railroad along which he wandered, a railroad bridge over a stream, the semi rural countryside.
