Van Morrison - Cyprus Avenue

Beautiful! Van is my secret place.

He’s where I’d go as a kid when things were real, real bad. I thought Cyprus Avenue was some magic place…Maybe it was like a secret door or something. When I found out it’s a real place, a road in Belfast. I swore I’d get there some day.

Van is the man! i too have loved him since i was a kid… i think he is magic in some way and always brings back good memories… one of my moms boyfriends that she grew up with & has known all her life, Mike Hayden… (who i always just loved to bits and secretly wished was my dad)… is the one responsible for my love for Van. i’ll always associate the two with one another til the day i die. i still love Mike and wish he was my dad… he was the best… i’m sure my sister will agree he introduced us to a lot of neat shit… but for me Van Morrison comes to mind more so than anything else…. anyhow. =)
