Sharing horizons that are new to us
Watching the signs along the way
Talkin' it over, just the two of us
Workin' together day to day, together

We’ve only just begun. Big wedding song in the 70s and even a bank commercial. When things were better too:

He also wrote “Rainy Days and Mondays” which is a much better tune. Karen Carpenter made Rainy Dsys unforgettable.

,,, Roger Nichols was engineer on the production of Steely Dan’s “Aja” and “Gaucho” albums. Absolute art.
