Um, thank you.
I wrote this about being away from home, more specifically being away from home from my wife Jill.
When I'm going away for a couple of weeks, for some reason, the week before I go, she goes right off me.
Yeah, I can't work it out either, I've got no one.
But she does, she goes right off me.
I guess it's a self-preservation thing.
Actually, sometimes she goes off me for two weeks.
Must have been something I said, or didn't do, I guess.
But yeah, for some reason, and that's a self-preservation thing.
She's protecting herself because I'm going away and she kind of doesn't want to miss me too much.
But then I get home.
That's why I love to travel.
It all changes when you get home.
This next song features three of my closest friends.
Unfortunately, they couldn't be with us this evening.
It's cheap, but it works.
Stuart Fraser on the guitar, ladies and gentlemen, please.
And the beautiful, the talented, the lovely, the brown, Miss Lisa Edwards, if you will, please.
And the hippie in a dinner suit.
I don't know.
I don't know whether you can see that from where you're sitting, but Lindsey's got his hair in a bun.
Not that there's anything wrong with that.
I'm a dead man.
Sing this one over in this little pointed bit over here.
This one's called Burned For You.
