First time I heard it, I misheard the lyric, "Once when you were mine" as "Once when you were nine".
That reminded me of someone from when I was kid whom I hadn't seen since around that time. I was in college when the song came out -- and I think that that girl actually went to the same college for at least a semester, but I never had the courage to walk up to that stranger and ask. I just hoped that I'd see her in one of the required classes we had to take.
WELCOME TO
(where our troops, allies and their families can refresh themselves)
Good morning, Everyone.
Good morning to our
AWESOME
Military, our Allies, and their families.
Thank you, fatima, for preparing the Canteen for today's activities.
I think my favorite is Silent Lucidity by Queensryche. There's one line in there that I like so much I want it on my tombstone....
"Soul set free to fly"
Now our local DC Metroland weather report
~ Today....A mix of clouds and sun. High 88F. Winds W at 10 to 15 mph.
~ Tonight...Some clouds. Low 62F. Winds NNW at 5 to 10 mph.
Got to make my rounds. But, you stay right where you are. Keep the troops entertained and the Canteen clean.........Cause.......if you don't........I'll tell Ma!
So, come on in and sit for a while. There's always plenty of coffee, pancakes, conversation, silliness, and plain old BS
REMEMBER THEM ....

Well, come to think of it, I may be missing a little of the early 70s also.
URIAH HEEP - Dreammare
Grinning demons, smiling sideways
Laughing in my face
Here within my troubled sleep
Theres such a lonely place
Running fast but never moving
I cant get away
Strange but realistic objects
Making me their prey
Then its gone as fast as it came
Evil dream
Changing like the sun turn to rain
It would seem
La la la la la ...
Dining with the gods of beauty
On a distant shore
Tasting fruits of untold sweetness
Never seen before
Dancing stars with crystal voices
Beckon with their eyes
Unicorn of many colours
Rides to paradise
Then its gone as fast as it came
Peaceful scene
Changing like the sun turns to rain
It would seem
La la la la la ...
Sleepless nights that last a lifetime
Crucify my head
Dreams of peace and then disaster
Wish that I were dead
Looking for the end of darkness
Seeking out the day
For escape with speed unthought of
Bearing me away
Then its gone as fast as it came
Peaceful scene
Changing like the sun turns to rain
It would seem
La la la la la ...
Come into my dream
