"Long Summer Days"

I also noticed a small thing about "Long Summer Days" when I listened to Caught Live + 5 yester-day.  The line "I keep sinking" is sung to a descending phrase (F# E C# C#), musically giving a sense of that "sinking."

"Long Summer Days"

In "Long Summer Days" (from the "+ 5" on Caught Live + 5), the last word of the first and third lines of the verses is sung with a melisma (D to C# [although the "ways" in the last verse seems like it has a third note]), which musically indicates the length of "days" in "Long summer days," the number of "ways" in "So many ways," and movement in "Time hurries by" and "Don't let it by."
