A quick reprise of Steve Winwood and Eric Clapton, this time giving an old Traffic favourite a good airing.
Although this is taken from The Crossroads Guitar Festival of 2010 it is reminiscent of a somewhat better time, 67 was it or perhaps a little later. Strange how that decade is always a little foggy to recall with any degree of certainty, except for some things.
The words seem to fit rather nicely.
Dear Mister Fantasy play us a tune
Something to make us all happy
Do anything take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy
You are the one who can make us all laugh
But doing that you break out in tears
Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had
We wouldn't have known you all these years
Dear Mr. Fantasy
