Girl with a Dream...Cathy's Bike Song
When I was two years old, my mother asked me to find my brother so, instead of looking for him, I took my tricycle and rode it into town to my father’s office. We lived in Governor, NY and, as a civil engineer, he was building the bridge across the St. Lawrence river. Imagine my father’s surprise to find me in his office. The story goes, he called my mother and said guess who is sitting on my lap?
Was it my first act of defiance? I’m not sure. But I know that I knew what I wanted to do when I did it. So that’s why this image, Girl With a Dream, Inspired me to write this song.
