Townes is a gem. For various reasons, most his own doing, he never got the mainstream success he deserved. Every artist or songwriter in the business during his time, though, respected the hell out of him. Most still stand on his shoulders to this day.

You cannot turn the circles of the sun
And you cannot count the miles until you feel them
And you cannot hold a lover that has gone"
