The Last Frontier
Wherever you are
and whatever you do
do you think of me?
Cuz I think of you…
What do you find
when you look in your heart?
Are there memories,
although we’re apart?
Space is the last frontier to conquer.
From time we have nothing to fear,
eternity’s here
and we hold it in our hearts
When you’re a lone
and turn out the lights,
do you dream of me
and wish to the night,
that I could be found,
like I needed to find,
lose this loneliness
in the darkness behind

Hello! I used to volunteer at a nursing home in Bellevue and became good friends with a resident named Marvin Thorsen. I wonder if the client you spoke of was the same man. I have very fond memories of him… Could you let me know if this rings a bell?

Yeah, that’s him. I was his driver when I worked at S. L. Start & Assoc. as well as a house ‘parent’ of sorts cuz I lived with him and two other guys for a while.
I wrote 3 or 4 songs either for him or with him. It was a fun thing to do. In fact, I think the song “Wholeman” was taken from some conversations with him. Another song, “Make You Stay” was written from a paragraph he wrote about his feelings for a woman. The second verse is all mine via talking to him but the first verse and chorus have phrases from his paragraph in it.
