 ユーチューブでプロコルハルムの青い影を見つけたときは感動でした。青年になったばかりの時にLPでもないシングル盤の360円くらいしたと思うレコードです。擦り切れるくらい聞いて引っ越しを繰り返し、成人して海の人となってしまったので、それの行くへえはわからなくなりました。

 45年前と同じ声で歌っています。胸が苦しくなって思わず涙がでそう.......青春の忘れていた追憶ですが、心筋梗塞の前兆と云われそうな歳になりました。今まで どこに 行っていたのだ...

 朝になって白洲正子の自伝を読んでいて ふと 気が付いたのだが、 これって老人性の躁鬱 呆けの始まりかな..

 Lyrics:

We skipped the light fandango
And turned cartwheels cross the floor.
I was feeling kind of seasick
But the crowd called out for more.
The room was humming harder
And the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
The waiter brought a tray
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale.

She said "There is no reason,
And the truth is plain to see,"
But I wandered through my playing cards
And would not let her be,
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast,
And although my eyes were open
They might just just have well been closed.
And so it was that later,
As the miller told his tale,
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale.

She said she wanted shore leave
Tho in truth we were at sea
So I took her by a looking glass
And forced her to agree,
Saying you must be the mermaid
Who took Neptune for a ride
Well she smiled at me so sadly
That my anger straightway died
And so it was, etc...
