I'll be seeing you

In all the old familiar places

That this heart of mine embraces

All day through

I hadn’t been aware that he’d also been a director for television. Truly a wide-ranging career.

On another random note, I just remembered that I put a Fontaine quote as my senior quote in my high school yearbook.

Also known as the one in Time Tunnel who didn't look like David Byrne.
