  1. Thanks for more Van – these trees are amazing and I wonder what it must have been like when the “”tapes” were circulated – by mail in tapes. Incredible that now one can just click a button – and you get the music.
    As to this specific series – thought I had most of them until this post – and am glad to find more. This one has one of his songs that, for different reasons, make me stop and listen – Van says that
    I got a story too
    But my story it got no words
    It goes something like this

    I hope Van Morrison keeps telling us stories
    Thanks – again – for the work, your time and energy spent sharing this music

  2. Angeliou oh Angeliou
    Oh oh Angeliou Angeliou
    Oh Angeliou oh Angeliou oh my Angeliou

    In the month of May
    In the month of May
    In the city of Paris
    In the month of May
    In the month of May
    In the city of Paris
    And I heard the bells ringing, and I heard the bells ringing
    In the month of May
    In the city of Paris and I called out your name

    In the month of May
    In the city of Paris
    In the month of May
    In the city of Paris
    Oh oh Angeliou oh Angeliou oh oh Angeliou oh my Angeliou

    Walkin’ on a city street who would think you could ever be touched
    By a total stranger, not me
    But when you came up to me that day and I listened to your story
    It reminded me so much of myself
    It wasn’t what you said but the way it felt to me
    About a search and a journey just like mine

    Will you be my baby
    Will you be my baby now
    Will you be my baby
    Will you be my baby now
    Angeliou oh Angeliou
    Angeliou oh Angeliou
    Yes I will yes I will yes I will
    After she told all these things to me I said I got a story too
    It goes something like this

    somethin’ else!

  3. I can’t help feeling we keep missing out on the best
    bit of the lyric here !!

    After, ‘I got a story too / It goes something like this’ —

    ghhWWhhrrrungghhh
    uhhhnnnghrrrwwooouhg

    yyghghhhgyrrwunnu
    ggghhhhhwunngghhoou
