when first we met

i felt my life was such a bore

when first we met

each day i lived was such a chore

going to work and coming home

each day i'm all alone

but now things have changed for me

when first we met

the thrill of seeing you each day

we found such joy

we'd be together come what may

all the movies we would share

we looked the perfect pair

at last what i sought was mine

but then came the time

we would quarrel a lot

we fought and loved and fought each day

i knew we were good together

but that was not enough

to keep the love like

when we first met

there were no problems we could see

when first we met

we were as happy as can be

but those days are far behind

we know love is not blind

it's over, it's gone, goodbye

it's too bad, though we tried

romance slipped away once more

We already know that 2020 was an exceptionally cruel year. And its effect on the jazz world was especially painful. With many of our music’s greats already at an advanced age (albeit vibrantly, for many) and with a brutal virus spreading around, that hits the elderly and those with underlying conditions, far harder than other segments of the population, we knew it could be a tough year for our…
