about

Partially stolen from my friend Dara Weiss, this is my love song for Montreal, greatest city in Canada.

lyrics

Down on St. Laurent, there was literally a hole in the wall,
Filled with stride piano feel, on Monday we were back at the wheel.

Chorus:
Every star was shining that night.

Up on Fairmount St. where the bagels flow like pipe smoke on the breeze,
And the dozen that I buy, by the time I get back home are only nine.

Chorus

On St. Denis, you were tired so we stopped to rest our feet.
Late, after 3, and there was bluegrass in the middle of the street.

Chorus

There's a spot on Portage Ave, makes me think of how you looked the night I left.
Sparkles in the night, there was darkness under every tiny light.

Chorus
