There'll be a storm one night

The joys of letting go ...
Of turning to that special friend..
In life there are times when those that are closest to us are almost to close to turn to when the world collapses..
This song is dedicated to a wonderful woman who has helped me to understand myself and men far better than I could ever have hoped to.
Thanks D - loves ya!



There'll be a storm one night
And I will fly to you for shelter
Soaked in welcome rain
Falling to forbidden arms
Too breathless
Too helpless
Too restless to explain
Needing you
There'll be a storm one night
But you will find my place of hiding
We'll watch the lights like children
Leave the fortress hand in hand
I'll be thunder
You'll be lightning
I'll be thunder
You'll be lightning
And we'll collide
On dry land
There'll be a storm one night
And I will find no other rescue
Lost and far from home
Crying for some guiding light
Too reckless
Too helpless
Too hungry to refrain
>From needing you
There'll be a storm one night
The wind will drive me to your castle
And you'll ignite the fire
Just as if everything were planned
I'll be thunder
You'll be lightning
I'll be thunder
You'll be lightning
And we'll collide on dry land
I'll be thunder
You'll be lightning
There'll be a storm one night
No betrayal
No denial
No need to explain
We'll collide


I'll Be Thunder Lyrics by Turner Tina

Young at heart

Fairy tales can come true,
It can happen to you,
If you're young at heart!

For it's hard you will find
To be narrow of mind,
If you're young at heart!

You can go to extremes,
With impossible schemes,
You can laugh when your dreams
Fall apart at the seams . . .

And life gets more exciting,
With each passing day,
An' love is either in your heart,
Or, on the way!

Don't you know that it's worth,
Every treasure on earth,
To be young at heart!

For as rich as you are,
It's much better by far,
To be young at heart!

And if you should survive,
To a hundred an' five,
Look at all you'll derive
Outta bein' alive!

And here is the best part,
You have a head start . . .
If you are among,
The very young at heart!

( Don't you know that it's worth,
Every treasure on earth,
To be young at heart!
For as rich as you are,
It's much better by far,
To be young at heart! )

And if you should survive,
To a hundred an' five,
Look at all you'll derive
Outta bein' alive!

And here is the best part,
You have a head start . . .
If you are among,
The very young . . .
at heart!

May God bless and keep you always,

A song for a friend

Friends touch our lives
and anytime4u - even when
she had no photo -
was a person I connected with


May God bless and keep you always,
May your wishes all come true,
May you always do for others
And let others do for you.
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.

May you grow up to be righteous,
May you grow up to be true,
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you.
May you always be courageous,
Stand upright and be strong,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.

May your hands always be busy,
May your feet always be swift,
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift.
May your heart always be joyful,
May your song always be sung,
May you stay forever young,
Forever young, forever young,
May you stay forever young.

Especiallly for Jeff (Spunky)

A song for a friend

Smiles I know you are spoken for
and the miles devide
But your blogs have always
brought a smile to my face.
This is the song that reminds me of you





I refuse to listen, to the lies I‘m told
That I got to grow up, as I grow old
Sorry that I missed that, but then I’m just a kid
And this raging child fire, I won’t be rid
Cause its ever so much better, and you’ll get the most joy
When in group of Q-Tips, you’re that wild and crazy boy
So you can shake that finger, or you join the fun
But either way old friend ...I won’t grow up

Its a waste to save me
So don’t you even try
No you’ll never break me
The young feathers on these wings ...let me fly

Splashing in mud puddles, laughing milk out my nose
Running around in mismatched clothes
Making crazy faces, daring them to stick
I’m skipping school cause I’m faking I’m sick
Screaming out loud and making some noise
Making odd creations from disassembled toys
So you can shake that finger
Or you can join the fun
But either way old friend
...I won’t grow up

Talking back too often, playing with my food
Getting into trouble involving superglue
Jumping and dancing, won’t quit asking why?
I’ve eaten so much candy that I’ve got a sugar high
Acting like the raptor, I’ve been known to climb trees
Finding the worst moment to play hide and seek
So you can shake that finger
Or you can join the fun
Either way old friend
...I won’t grow up






I Won't Grow Up
Benny Mann

Our Sergeant major jumped from 60 000 feet,

These days we have many interesting options -
sent off in a fireworks display
made into a diamond
ever considered what you would like to happen to you?

Ashes to to ashes
dust to dust -Our Sergeant major jumped from 60 000 feet,
Our Sergeant major jumped from 60 000 feet,
Our Sergeant major jumped from 60 000 feet,
But he ain't gonna jump no more

Glory, glory what a terrible way to die,
Glory glory, what a terrible way to die
Glory glory, what a terrible way to die
And he ain't gonna jump no more.

He jumped without a parachute from sixty thousand feet,
He jumped without a parachute from sixty thousand feet,
He jumped without a parachute from sixty thousand feet,
And he ain't gonna jump no more

He landed on the runway like a lump of strawberry jam,
He landed on the runway like a lump of strawberry jam,
He landed on the runway like a lump of strawberry jam ,
And he ain't gonna jump no more....

They scraped him off the tarmac with a knife and fork and spoon,
They scraped him off the tarmac with a knife and fork and spoon,
They scraped him off the tarmac with a knife and fork and spoon,
And he ain't gonna jump no more....

They wrapped him up in bubblegum and sent him home to Mum
They wrapped him up in bubblegum and sent him home to Mum
They wrapped him up in bubblegum and sent him home to Mum
And he ain't gonna jump no more...

She put him on the mantelpiece everyone to see
She put him on the mantelpiece everyone to see
She put him on the mantelpiece everyone to see
And he ain't gonna jump no more....

She served him up with crumpets when the Vicar came to tea
She served him up with crumpets when the Vicar came to tea
She served him up with crumpets when the Vicar came to tea
And he ain't gonna jump no more....

Glory, glory what a terrible way to die,
Glory glory, what a terrible way to die
Glory glory, what a terrible way to die
And he ain't gonna jump no more

Secret of life

The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time
Any fool can do it
There ain't nothing to it
Nobody knows how we got to
The top of the hill
But since we're on our way down
We might as well enjoy the ride

The secret of love is in opening up your heart
It's okay to feel afraid
But don't let that stand in your way
'cause anyone knows that love is the only road
And since we're only here for a while
Might as well show some style
Give us a smile

Isn't it a lovely ride
Sliding down
Gliding down
Try not to try too hard
It's just a lovely ride

Now the thing about time is that time
Isn't really real
It's just your point of view
How does it feel for you
Einstein said he could never understand it all
Planets spinning through space
The smile upon your face
Welcome to the human race

Some kind of lovely ride
I'll be sliding down
I'll be gliding down
Try not to try too hard
It's just a lovely ride

Isn't it a lovely ride
Sliding down
Gliding down
Try not to try too hard
It's just a lovely ride

Now the secret of life is enjoying the passage of time

Time after time

Time After Time

Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
And think of you
Caught up in circles
Confusion is nothing new
Flashback--warm nights--
Almost left behind
Suitcase of memories,
Time after--

Sometimes you picture me--
I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, I can't hear
What you've said--
Then you say--go slow--
I fall behind--
The second hand unwinds

If you're lost you can look--and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you--I'll be waiting
Time after time

After my picture fades and darkness has
Turned to gray
Watching through windows--you're wondering
If I'm OK
Secrets stolen from deep inside
The drum beats out of time--

You said go slow--
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds--

Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time

good bye to you my trusted friend

Goodbye to you, my trusted friend
We've known each other since we were nine or ten
Together we've climbed hills and trees
Learned of love and ABC's
Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees
Goodbye my friend, it's hard to die
When all the bird's are singing in the sky
Now that spring is in the air
Pretty girls are everywhere
Think of me and I'll be there

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed were just seasons out of time

Goodbye Papa, please pray for me
I was the black sheep of the family
You tried to teach me right from wrong
Too much wine and too much song
Wonder how I got along

Goodbye Papa, it's hard to die
When all the bird's are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
Little children everywhere
When you see them I'll be there

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone
Yeah yeah

Goodbye Michelle, my little one
You gave me love and helped me find the sun
And every time that I was down
You would always come around
And get my feet back on the ground

Goodbye Michelle, it's hard to die
When all the bird's are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
With the flowers everywhere
I wish that we could both be there

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed were just seasons out of time
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone
All our lives we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed were just seasons out of time
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone.

Wake up and make love.....

I come awake
with the gift for womankind
you’re still alseep
but the gift don’t seem to mind
rise on this occation
halfway up your back
sliding down your body
touching your behind

you look so self-possessed
I won’t distrub your rest
it’s lovely when you’re sleeping
but wide awake is best

ow, wake up and make love with me
wake up and make love
wake up and make love with me
I don’t wanna make you
i’ll let the fancy take you
and you’ll wake up and make love

you come awake
in a horny morning mood
and we’ll have a proper wriggle
in the naughty, naked nude
roll against my body
get me where you want me
what happens next is private
it’s also very rude

i’ll go and get the post
and make some tea and toast
you have a nother sleep luv
it’s me that needs it most

ow, wake up and make love with me
wake up and make love
wake up and make love with me
I don’t wanna make you
i’ll let the fancy take you
and your’ll wake up and make love

wake up and make love with me
wake up and make love
wake up and make love with me
wake up and make love
wake up
wake up
wake up
wake up





Wake Up And Make Love With Me

Mandy

I remember all my life
Raining down as cold as ice
Shadows of a man
A face through a window
Crying in the night
The night goes into
Morning, just another day
Happy people pass my way
Looking in their eyes
I see a memory
I never realized
How happy you made me oh Mandy

Well you came and you gave without taking
But I sent you away, oh Mandy
Well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
And I need you today, oh Mandy

I'm standing on the edge of time
I walked away when love was mine
Caught up in a world of uphill climbing
The tears are on my mind
And nothing is rhyming, oh Mandy

Well you came and you gave without taking
But I sent you away, oh Mandy
You kissed me and stopped me from shaking
And I need you today, oh Mandy

Yesterday's a dream, I face the morning
Crying on the breeze
The pain is calling, oh Mandy

Well you came and you gave without taking
But I sent you away, oh Mandy
Well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
And I need you today, oh Mandy

You came and you gave without taking
But I sent you away, oh Mandy
You kissed me and stopped me from shaking
And I need you

Oh Mandy won't you listen to what I gotta say
Oh Mandy don't you let me throw it all away
Oh Mandy won't you listen to what I gotta say
And I need you today, oh Mandy

You are always there inside my mind

In your time of trouble
I wish that I could be the one
That you'd call at night
When you needed a friend
In your time of sorrow
I wish that I could be the one
To make you smile again
Its not over
Just start over
Oh you are so beautiful and special
Your my hero
You don't even know

You are always there inside my mind
I'm so preoccupied
Sending love to you across the sky
So I never seem to get things done
Your the only one
I worry all the time
So I have to let you go

In your time of trouble
I wish that I could be the one
That you'd want to hold you
And tell you your fine
In your time of sorrow
I wish that I could be the one
To make you try again
Its not over
Just start over
Oh you are so fragile and so peculiar
You took a little detour
You feel a little unsure
Don't give up
There's a way out and you know it
Don't give up

You are always there inside my mind
I'm so preoccupied
Sending love to you across the sky
So I never seem to get things done
Your the only one
I worry all the time
So I have to let you go

You are always there inside my mind
I'm so preoccupied
Sending love to you across the sky
So I never seem to get things done
Your the only one
I worry all the time
So I have to let you go

You are always there inside my mind
I'm so preoccupied
Sending love to you across the sky
So I never seem to get things done
Your the only one
I worry all the time
So I have to let you go
Stella Soleil - You

Follow me

Its by far the hardest thing Ive ever done
To be so in love with you and so alone

Follow me where I go what I do and who I know
Make it part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down all the way and all around
Take my hand and say youll follow me

Its long been on my mind
You know its been a long, long time
Ive tried to find the way that I can make you understand
The way I feel about you and just how much I need you
To be there where I can talk to you
When theres no one else around

Follow me where I go what I do and who I know
Make it part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down all the way and all around
Take my hand and say youll follow me

You see Id like to share my life with you
And show you things Ive seen
Places that Im going to places where Ive been
To have you there beside me and never be alone
And all the time that youre with me
We will be at home

Follow me where I go what I do and who I know
Make it part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down all the way
Take my hand and I will follow you

Words (Dont Come Easy)

Words dont come easy to me
How can I find a way to make you see I love You?
Words dont come easy
Words dont come easy to me
This is the only way for me to say I love You
words dont come easy
Well, Im just a music man
Melodies are for my best friend
But my words are coming out wrong
Girl, I reveal my heart to you and
Hope that you believe its true cause

Words dont come easy to me
How can I find a way to make you see I love You?
Words dont come easy

This is just a simple song
That Ive made for you and my own
Theres no hidden meaning you know when I
When I say I love you honey!
Please believe I really do cause
Words dont come easy to me
How can I find a way to make you see I love You?
Words dont come easy
It isnt easy words dont come easy
Words dont come easy to me
How can I find a way to make you see I love You?
Words dont come easy
Words dont come easy to me
This is the only way for me to say I love You
words dont come easy
words dont come easy.

No more I love yous....

No more I love you's
The language is leaving me
No more i love you's changes are shifting
Outside the words
No more i love you's
The language is leaving me
No more i love you's
The language is leaving me in silence
No more i love you's
Changes are shifting outside the words

No more carefree laughter
Silence ever after
Walking through an empty house, tears in my eyes
Here is where the story ends, this is goodbye

Knowing me, knowing you (ah-haa)
There is nothing we can do
Knowing me, knowing you (ah-haa)
We just have to face it, this time we're through
(This time we're through, this time we're through
This time we're through, we're really through)
Breaking up is never easy, I know but I have to go
(I have to go this time
I have to go, this time I know)
Knowing me, knowing you
It's the best I can do

Mem'ries (mem'ries), good days (good days), bad days (bad days)
They'll be (they'll be), with me (with me) always (always)
In these old familiar rooms children would play
Now there's only emptiness, nothing to say

Knowing me, knowing you (ah-haa)
There is nothing we can do
Knowing me, knowing you (ah-haa)
We just have to face it, this time we're through
(This time we're through, this time we're through
This time we're through, we're really through)
Breaking up is never easy, I know but I have to go
(I have to go this time
I have to go, this time I know)
Knowing me, knowing you
It's the best I can do

Get Here if you can

You can reach me by railway, you can reach me by trailway
You can reach me on an airplane, you can reach me with your mind
You can reach me by caravan, cross the desert like an Arab man
I don't care how you get here, just get here if you can
You can reach me by sail boat, climb a tree and swing rope to rope
Take a sled and slide down slope, into these arms of mine
You can jump on a speedy colt, cross the border in a blaze of hope
I don't care how you get here, just get here if you can

There are hills and mountains between us
Always something to get over
If I had my way, surely you would be closer
I need you closer oh closer

You can windsurf into my life, take me up on a carpet ride
You can make it in a big balloon, but you better make it soon
You can reach me by caravan, cross the desert like an Arab man yeah
I don't care how you get here, just get here if you can

I don't care, I need you right here, right now
I need you right here right now, right by my side
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I don't care how you get here, just get here, get here
I don't care how you get here, just get here if you can
Get here if you can

Justin Guarini-

Undiscovered

i look at you, you bite your tongue
you don't know why or where i'm coming from
but in my head i'm close to you
we're in the rain still searching for the sun

you think that i want to run and hide
that i keep it all locked up inside but i just want you to find me

i'm not lost; not lost, just undiscovered
and when we're alone we are all the same as each other

you see the look that's on my face
you might think i'm out of place
i'm not lost, no, no, just undiscovered

well the time it takes to know someone
it all can change before you know it's gone
so close your eyes and i feel the way i'm with you now
believe there's nothing wrong

i'm not running, i'm not hiding
but if you dig a little deeper, you will find me

take my hand

Touch my skin,and tell me what you're thinking
Take my hand and show me where we're going
Lie down next to me, look into my eyes and tell me, oh tell me what you're seeing
So sit on top of the world and tell me how you're feeling
what you feel now is what I feel for you
Take my hand and if I'm lying to you
I'll always be alone
if I'm lying to you
See my eyes, they carry your reflection
Watch my lips and hear the words I'm telling you
Give your trust to me and look into my heart and show me, show me what you're doing
So sit on top of the world and tell me how you're feeling
what you feel now is what I feel for you

Take my hand and if I'm lying to you
I'll always be alone
if I'm lying to you
Take your time, if I'm lying to you
I know you'll find that you believe me
you believe me

Feel the sun on your face and tell me what you're thinking
Catch the snow on your tongue and show me how it tastes
Take my hand and if I'm lying to you
I'll always be alone
if I'm lying to you
Take your time, if I'm lying to you
I know you'll find that you believe me
you believe me
Dido -

Sit on my face

Come Sit on my face and tell me that you love me
I'll sit on your face and tell you I love you too
I love to hear you oralise
When I'm between your thighs
You blow me away!
Sit on my face and let my lips embrace you
I'll sit on your face and then I'll love you truly
Life can be fine if we're both sixty-nine
If we sit on our faces
In all sorts of places
And play till we're blown away!




Sit on my Face

It's Raining Men

Humidity's rising
Barometer's getting low
According to all sources
The street's the place to go

'Cos tonight for the first time
At just about half past ten
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men

It's raining men
Hallelujah it's raining men, Amen
It's raining men
Hallelujah it's raining men, Amen

Humidity's rising
Barometer's getting low
According to all sources
The street's the place to go

'Cos tonight for the first time
At just about half past ten
For the first time in history
It's gonna start raining men

It's raining men
Hallelujah it's raining men, Amen
I'm gonna go out
I'm gonna let myself get
Absolutely soaking wet

It's raining men
Hallelujah it's raining men
Every specimen
Tall blond dark and mean
Rough and tough and strong and lean

God bless Mother Nature
She's a single woman too
She took on a heaven
And she did what she had to do
She taught every angel
To rearrange the sky
So that each and every woman
Could find her perfect guy

It's raining men
Go get yourself wet girl
I know you want to

I feel stormy weather moving in
About to begin
Hear the thunder
Don't you lose your head
Rip off the roof and stay in bed

It's raining men Hallelujah
It's raining men, Amen
It's raining men Hallelujah
It's raining men, Amen

It's raining men Hallelujah
It's raining men, Amen
It's raining men Hallelujah
It's raining men, Amen

Geri Halliwell - It's Raining Men

Written by Paul Jabara/Paul Schaffer

you, light up my life

so many nights, i sit by my window
waiting for someone to sing me his song
so many dreams i kept deep inside me
alone in the dark, now you've come along

and you light up my life
you give me hope to carry on
you light up my days
and fill my nights with song

rolling at sea, adrift on the water
could it finally be, i'm turning for home
finally a chance to say, hey, i love you
oh never again to be alone

and you, light up my life
you give me hope to carry on
you light up my days
and fill my nights with song
it can't be wrong when it feels so right
cause, you light up my life

River Of Tears

It's three miles to the river
That would carry me away,
And two miles to the dusty street
That I saw you on today.
It's four miles to my lonely room
Where I will hide my face,
And about half a mile to the downtown bar
That I ran from in disgrace.
Lord, how long have I got to keep on running,
Seven hours, seven days or seven years?
All I know is, since you've been gone
I feel like I'm drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.
Drowning in a river.
Feel like I'm drowning,
Drowning in a river.
In three more days, I'll leave this town
And disappear without a trace.
A year from now, maybe settle down
Where no one knows my face.
I wish that I could hold you
One more time to ease the pain,
But my time's run out and I got to go,
Got to run away again.
Still I catch myself thinking,
One day I'll find my way back here.
You'll save me from drowning,
Drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.
Drowning in a river.
Feels like I'm drowning,
Drowning in the river.
Lord, how long must this go on?
Drowning in a river,
Drowning in a river of tears.

I Will Be Right Here Waiting For You

Oceans apart, day after day
And I slowly go insane
I hear your voice, on the line
But it doesn't stop the pain
If I see you next to never
how can we say forever

Wherever you go, whatever you do
I will be right here, waiting for you
Whatever it takes, or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

I took for granted, all The times
That I thought would last somehow
I hear the laughter, I taste the tears
But I can't get near you now
Oh can't you see it baby,
You've got me going crazy

Wherever you go, whatever you do
I will be right here, waiting for you
Whatever it takes, or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

I wonder how we can survive, this romance
But in the end if I'm with you, I'll take the chance

Oh you can't see it baby
You've got me going crazy

Wherever you go, whatever you do
I will be right here, waiting for you
Whatever it takes, or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you
Bryan Adams-

You only saw what you wanted to see in me

You only saw what you wanted to see in me
You gave me hope when I was down.
Now it is the end and you are gone.
So many days we sat by the fire
Nights we danced and sang until the dawn.
I will always love you my special friend.

Would you know my name if I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same if I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong and carry on,
'Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven.

Would you hold my hand if I saw you in heaven?
Would you help me stand if I saw you in heaven?
I'll find my way through night and day,
'Cause I know I just can't stay here in heaven.

Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees.
Time can break your heart, have you begging please, begging please.

Beyond the door there's peace I'm sure,
And I know there'll be no more tears in heaven.

Would you know my name if I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same if I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong and carry on,
'Cause I know I don't belong here in heaven.

Everything I do - I do it for you

To be able to love must be the greatest gift of all....
reading through blogs today - questions asked
"Can we love too much?"
"What is the price of a soul?"
Then I think of the responses to my last post - one for which I should perhaps apologise for posting - but sometimes it is better when it is all out!
I am so lucky that I am alive and able to love -
yes perhaps I need to learn how to get angry sometimes - having lived at least half my expected life span perhaps that was not in the planning





Look into my eyes - you will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart - search your soul
And when you find me there you'll search no more

Don't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
You can't tell me it's not worth dyin' for
You know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

Look into my heart - you will find
There's nothin' there to hide
Take me as I am - take my life
I would give it all - I would sacrifice

Don't tell me it's not worth fightin' for
I can't help it - there's nothin' I want more
Ya know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

There's no love - like your love
And no other - could give more love
There's nowhere - unless you're there
All the time - all the way

Oh - you can't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
I can't help it - there's nothin' I want more
I would fight for you - I'd lie for you
Walk the wire for you - ya I'd die for you

Ya know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

I Do It For You)

Thank you for loving me

It's hard for me to say the things
I want to say sometimes
There's no one here but you and me
And that broken old street light
Lock the doors
We'll leave the world outside
All I've got to give to you
Are these five words when I

Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
For parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me
Thank you for loving me

I never knew I had a dream
Until that dream was you
When I look into your eyes
The sky's a different blue
Cross my heart
I wear no disguise
If I tried, you'd make believe
That you believed my lies

Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
For parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me
Thank you for loving me

You pick me up when I fall down
You ring the bell before they count me out
If I was drowning you would part the sea
And risk your own life to rescue me

Lock the doors
We'll leave the world outside
All I've got to give to you
Are these five words when I

Thank you for loving me
For being my eyes
When I couldn't see
For parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me
Thank you for loving me

When I couldn't fly
Oh, you gave me wings
You parted my lips
When I couldn't breathe
Thank you for loving me
Thank you for loving me
Thank you for loving me,
For loving me

Let there be peace on earth,
and let it begin with me.
Let there be peace on Earth,
the peace that was meant to be.

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

And when the broken hearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be
For though they may be parted
There is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Yeah, there will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Let it be, let it be
Let it be, yeah, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

And when the night is cloudy
There is still a light that shines on me
Shine on until tomorrow, let it be
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

Let it be, let it be
Let it be, yeah, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, yeah, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

I Don't Like Mondays

My Prayers and thoughts go out to those who have lost and have to live with the memory.
May we find a way to bring peace and hope back into today's world
18/04/07
I Don't Like Mondays

The silicon chip inside her head
Gets switched to overload.
And nobody's gonna go to school today,
She's going to make them stay at home.
And daddy doesn't understand it,
He always said she was as good as gold.
And he can see no reason
'Cause there are no reasons
What reason do you need to be shown?

Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
I want to shoot
The whole day down.

The telex machine is kept so clean
As it types to a waiting world.
And mother feels so shocked,
Father's world is rocked,
And their thoughts turn to
Their own little girl.
Sweet 16 ain't so peachy keen,
No, it ain't so neat to admit defeat.
They can see no reasons
'Cause there are no reasons
What reason do you need to be shown?

Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
I want to shoot
The whole day down.

All the playing's stopped in the playground now
She wants to play with her toys a while.
And school's out early and soon we'll be learning
And the lesson today is how to die.
And then the bullhorn crackles,
And the captain crackles,
With the problems and the how's and why's.
And he can see no reasons
'Cause there are no reasons
What reason do you need to die?

Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays.
I want to shoot
The whole day down

Wind Beneathe my wings

In life there are often people who give us the strength to carry on.
Who gently guide us, and never ask for anything in return.
How often do we actually stop and acknowledge those for have helped us be where we are today?

To all my friends in blogland...
thank you for being the wind beneath my wings.

It is only those of us who have actually reaped the benefit of blogging that can truely understand the benefits....

It must have been cold there, in my shadow
To never have sunlight on your face
You've been content to let me shine
You always walked a step behind

I was the one with all the glory
While you were the one with all the strength
Only a face without a name
And I never once heard you complain

Did you ever know that you're my hero
And everything I'd like to be
I could fly higher than an eagle
'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings

It might have appeared to go unnoticed
But I've got it all here in my heart
I want you to know I know the truth
I would be nothing without you

Did you ever know that you're my hero
And everything I'd like to be
I could fly higher than an eagle
'Cause you are the wind beneath my wings
You are the wind beneath my wings

Wind Beneath My Wings
Sung by Bette Midler

Left on a Jet Plane

All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go,
I'm standing here outside your door,
I hate to wake you up to say good-bye.
But the dawn is breaking, it's early morn,
the taxi's waiting He's blowing his horn.
Already I'm so lonesome I could die.
So kiss me and smile for me,
tell me that you'll wait for me,
hold me like you'll never let me go.
'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane,
don't know when I'll be back again.
Oh, babe, I hate to go.

There's so many times I've let you down,
so many times I've played around,
I tell you now they don't mean a thing.
Every place I go I'll think of you,
every song I sing I'll sing for you,
when I come back, I'll bring your wedding ring.
So kiss me and smile for me,
tell me that you'll wait for me,
hold me like you'll never let me go.
'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane,
don't know when I'll be back again.

Oh, babe, I hate to go.
Now the time has come to leave you,
one more time let me kiss you,
then close your eyes, I'll be on my way.
Dream about the days to come
when I won't have to leave alone,
about the times I won't have to say:
kiss me and smile for me,
tell me that you'll wait for me,
hold me like you'll never let me go.
'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane,
don't know when I'll be back again.
Oh, babe, I hate to go.
I'm leaving on a jet plane,
don't know when I'll be back again.
Oh, babe, I hate to go.

When a child is born

When a child is born it brings a new dimension to our lives - smiles I wonder how many of us actually grow up to be what our parents hoped we would be!

A ray of hope flickers in the sky
A tiny star lights up way up high
All across the land dawns a brand new morn',
This comes to pass when a child is born.

A silent wish sails the seven seas
The winds of change whisper in the trees
And the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn,
This comes to pass when a child is born.

It's all a dream, an illusion now.
It must come true some time soon somehow
All across the land dawns a brand new morn',
This comes to pass when a child is born.
When a child is born

Climb every mountain, search high and low

Climb every mountain, search high and low
Follow every byway, every path you know.
Climb every mountain, ford every stream,
Follow every rainbow, 'til you find your dream!

A dream that will need
all the love you can give,
Every day of your life
for as long as you live.

Climb every mountain, ford every stream,
Follow every rainbow, 'til you find your dream!


From the Sound of Music Music by Rodgers and Hammerstein

Do you know where you're going to?

Perhaps everyone has a little rebel hiding deep down in their heart, a streak of rebellious feeling or a stubborn side that peeks out at times during our life.

Do you know where you're going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you?
Where are you going to?
Do you know?

Do you get what you're hoping for?
When you look behind you, there's no open doors
What are you hoping for?
Do you know?

Once, we were standing still in time
Chasin' the fantasies that filled our minds
You knew how I loved you but my spirit was free
Laughin' at the questions that you once asked of me

Do you know where you're going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you?
Where are you going to?
Do you know?

Now, looking back at all we've planned,
We let so many dreams just slip through our hands
Why must we wait so long before we'll see?
How sad the answers to those questions can be

Do you know where you're going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you?
Where are you going to?
Do you know?

Do you get what you're hoping for?
When you look behind you, there's no open doors
What are you hoping for?
Do you know?

Four bits gets you time in the racks

Fools' gold out of their mind
The girls are soaking wet
No tongue's drier than mine

And I'm back in the saddle again
And I'm back... yes I am
And I'm back in the saddle again

FOOD, GLORIOUS FOOD

Is it worth the waiting for?
If we live 'til eighty-four
All we ever get is gru...el!
Ev'ry day we say our prayer --
Will they change the bill of fare?
Still we get the same old gru...el!
There's not a crust, not a crumb can we find,
Can we beg, can we borrow, or cadge,
But there's nothing to stop us from getting a thrill
When we all close our eyes and imag...ine

Food, glorious food!
Hot sausage and mustard!
While we're in the mood
Cold jelly and custard!
Pease pudding and saveloys!
What next is the question.
Rich gentlemen have it, boys:
In-di-gestion!

Food, glorious food!
We're anxious to try it.
Three banquets a day --
Our favourite diet!
Just picture a great big steak --
Fried, roasted or stewed.
Oh, food,
Wonderful food,
Marvellous food,
Glorious food.

Food, glorious food!
What is there more handsome?
Gulped, swallowed or chewed --
Still worth a king's ransom!
What is it we dream about?
What brings on a sigh?
Piled peaches and cream, about
Six feet high!

Food, glorious food!
Eat right through the menu.
Just loosen your belt
Two inches and then you
Work up a new appetite.
In this interlude --
Then food,
Once again, food
Fabulous food,
Glorious food!

Food, glorious food!
Don't care what it looks like:
Burned, underdone, crude --
Don't care what the cook's like.
Just thinking of growing fat --
Our senses go reeling.
One moment of knowing that
Full-up feeling!

Food, glorious food!
What wouldn't we give for
That extra bit more --
That's all that we live for.
Why should we be fated to
Do nothing but brood
On food,
Magical food,
Wonderful food,
Marvellous food,
Fabulous food,
Beautiful food,
Glorious food!





Lionel Bart was 28 when he wrote the book, music and lyrics to OLIVER!
based on the 1838 Charles Dickens classic OLIVER TWIST. (Bart had changed his last name from Begleiter when he was 24.) He had started out writing pop tunes for Tommy Steele (having been in a skiffle group called the Caveman with him), and had written two previous successful West End Shows, FINGS AIN'T WOT THEY USED T'BE (music and lyrics - 1957) and LOCK UP YOUR DAUGHTERS (lyrics - 1959). According to Rex Bunnett writing in The Musicals, originally Bart was looking to create a vehicle to star Tommy Steele when he decided to adapt OLIVER TWIST, but that plan went out the window when Bart limited the show to the early part of the book that also formed the basis for the successful 1948 David Lean film. By the time OLIVER! opened on Broadway, Bart had 3 hit shows running simultaneously in London, OLIVER!, LOCK UP
YOUR DAUGHTERS and BLITZ (music and lyrics). He died April 4, 1999.

It Should Have Been Me

The world turns and we make choices.
If you had been single
you know
I would have been yours forever.
You will always have a special place in my heart.
As I passed by
A real fine hotel
A chick walked out
She sure looked swell
I gave her the eye
And started to carry on
When a Cadillac cruised up
And 'swish' she was gone.
It should've been me
With that real fine chick
It should've been me
With that real fine chick
Hey hey hey, hey, driving that, Cadillac.
A little later on
A theater I passed
I spotted another chick
And did she have class
I was all set
To write her name in my book
When her husband came up and gave me a
Real dirty look.
It should've been me
With that real fine chick
It should've been me
With that real fine chick
It should've been me
To have been her chaperone.
When I got to the corner
I saw a sharp cat
With a 300 dollar suit on
And a 100 dollar hat
He was standing on the sidewalk
By a DynaFlow
When a voice within said,
"C'mon daddy, let's go."
It should've been me
With that real fine chick
It should've been me
With that real fine chick
It should've been me
Hey hey hey, hey, driving that, DynaFlow.
I ate a bowl of chili
And I felt OK
At least until I passed
This fine Cafe
I saw a guy eatin'
A great big steak
While a waitress stood by feedin' him
Ice cream and cake.
It should've been me
With that real fine chick
It should've been me
With that real fine chick
You know, it should've been me
Eatin' ice, cream and cake.
It should've been me
Gettin' my natural kicks
It should've been me
Gettin' my natural kicks
Hey hey hey, hey, lovin' those, crazy chicks...

Ray Charles -
It Should Have Been Me

Skybird

Skybird
Make your soul
And every heart will know
Of the tale

Skybird
Make your tune
For none may sing it
Just as you do

Look at the way I glide
Caught on the wind's laxy tide
Sweetly how it sings
Rally each heart at the sight
Of your silver wings

Skybird, skybird

Nightbird
Find your way
For none may know it
Just as you

uniquelytwisted her song

A post for a friend of mine.
She happened to mention this song
and I thought it epitomised her

You keep saying you've got something for me.
something you call love, but confess.
You've been a messin'
where you shouldn't have been a messin'
and now someone else is gettin' all your best.

These boots are made for walking,
and that's just what they'll do
one of these days these boots
are gonna walk all over you.

You keep lying, when you oughta be truthin'
and you keep losin' when you oughta not bet.
You keep samin' when you oughta be a changin'.
Now what's right is right,
but you ain't been right yet.

These boots are made for walking,
and that's just what they'll do
one of these days these boots
are gonna walk all over you.

You keep playin'
where you shouldn't be a playin
and you keep thinkin' that
you´ll never get burnt.

Ha!

I just found me a brand new box of matches yeah
and what he knows you ain't HAD time to learn.

These boots are made for walking,
and that's just what they'll do
one of these days these boots
are gonna walk all over you.
Are you ready boots?

Start walkin'

Invincible

Below is my favourite Michael Jackson song. He is currently in Japan where he is quoted as having addressed the troops with these words;
"Those of you in here today are some of the most special people in the world," Jackson told the crowd, reading from a statement. "It is because of you in here today, and others who so valiantly have given their lives to protect us, that we enjoy our freedom."
For all the controversy he has been involved in Michael Jackson is undoubtedly a very talented man.Your love is magical,
that's how I feel
But I have not the words here to explain
Gone is the grace for expressions of passion
But there are worlds and worlds
of ways to explain
To tell you how I feel
But I am speechless, speechless
That's how you make me feel
Though I'm with you I am far away
and nothing is for real
When I'm with you I am lost for words,
I don't know what to say my head's
Spinning like a carousel,
so silently I pray helpless and hopeless,
that's How I feel inside
nothing's real,
but all is possible if God is on my side
When I'm with you
I am in the light
where I cannot be found
it's as though I am standing
in the place called hallowed ground
speechless, speechless,
That's how you make me feel
though I'm with you
I am far away and nothing is for real
I'll go anywhere and do anything
just to touch your face
there's no Mountain high I cannot climb
I'm humbled in your grace
speechless, Speechless,
that's how you make me feel
though I'm with you
I am lost for Words
and nothing is for real
speechless, speechless,
that's how you make me feel
though I'm with you I am far away,
and nothing is for real
speechless, Speechless,
that's how you make me feel
though I'm with you
I am lost for Words
and nothing is for real
speechless
your love is magical,
that's how I feel but in your presence
I am lost for words
words like,
I love you.

I used to put hibiscus flowers in my hair

I used to put hibiscus flowers in my hair and imagine being completely free - so when this song came out I was transported back to those days of blissful freedom.....in those days when we didnt compete to have the latest fades... when it didnt matter if the record was slightly scratched it just added to the ambiance.
Remember the flutter in your heart when you got a letter, waiting for the post man who always had a smile.

Strange how the world has changed in search of civilisation.....
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
In '77 and '69 revolution was in the air
I was born too late into a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

When the head of state didn't play guitar
Not everybody drove a car
When music really mattered and when radio was king
When accountants didn't have control
And the media couldn't buy your soul
And computers were still scary and we didn't know everything

When pop stars still remained a myth
And ignorance could still be bliss
And when god saved the queen she turned a whiter shade of pale
My mom and dad were in their teens
And anarchy was still a dream
And the only way to stay in touch was a letter in the mail

When record shops were still on top
And vinyl was all that they stocked
And the super info highway was still drifting out in space
Kids were wearing hand me downs
And playing games meant kick arounds
And footballers still had long hair and dirt across their face

I was born too late into a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

LOVE IS IN THE AIR

Love is in the air
Everywhere I look around
Love is in the air
Every sight and every sound

And I don't know if I'm being foolish
Don't know if I'm being wise
But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when I look in your eyes

Love is in the air
In the whisper of the trees
Love is in the air
In the thunder of the sea

And I don't know if I'm just dreaming
Don't know if I feel sane
But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when you call out my name

Love is in the air
Love is in the air
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

Love is in the air
In the rising of the sun
Love is in the air
When the day is nearly done

And I don't know if you're an illusion
Don't know if I see it true
But you're something that I must believe in
And you're there when I reach out for you

Love is in the air
Every sight and every sound
And I don't know if I'm being foolish
Don't know if I'm being wise

But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when I look in your eyes
(John Paul Young)

Love is all Around

I feel it in my fingers
I feel it in my toes
The love that's all around me
And so the feeling grows
It's written on the wind
It's everywhere I go
So if you really love me
Come on and let it show
You know I love you, I always will
My mind's made up by the way that I feel
There's no beginning, there'll be no end
'Cause on my love you can depend
I see your face before me
As I lay on my bed
I cannot get to thinking
Of all the things you said
You gave your promise to me and I gave mine to you
I need someone beside me in everything I do
You know I love you, I always will
My mind's made up by the way that I feel
There's no beginning, there'll be no end
'Cause on my love you can depend
I got to keep it moving
It's written in the wind
Oh everywhere I go
So if you really love me
Come on and let it show
Come on and let it,
Come on and let it,
Come on and let it,
Come on and let it show

Love is all Around

Giving all my love to you

You and I living life the way we always dreamed
The hours, the nights, the joining of our hands
Is our pledge to the world as woman and man
To do all that we can to make this dream come true
Giving all my love to you
All of my heart now to the man that you are
Giving all my love to you
All that I am, giving the best every moment
Making love to you tonight
Making it fine, making it shine
Giving all my love to you
Take me away, let's take it all the way tonight
You and I living life by the light of the flame
That we carry inside, commitment with a plan
Makes it easy to stay, when the years have come and gone
Taking love all the way with the wonder still to come

Making it fine, making it shine
Giving all my love to you
Take me away, let's take it all the way tonight
Giving all my love to you
All of my heart now to the man that you are
Giving all my love to you
All that I am, giving the best every moment
Giving all my love to you
All of my heart now to the man that you are
Giving all my love to you
All that I am, giving the best every moment
Giving all my love to you

Look, I don't know all of your names, friends,
But let me welcome you to the Games.




A wonderfully talented man with a perverse sense of humour - the following 3 posts may not be to everyones liking - but read them with an open mind of how things used to be - how we could all share a joke with out getting worked up about offending others ........

Rolf Harris, CBE, AM (born 30 March 1930) is a British / Australian musician, composer, painter, and television host.

He was born in Bassendean, a suburb of Perth, Western Australia, Australia, to Cromwell ("Crom") Harris and Agnes Margaret Harris (née Robbins) who had migrated from Wales. He was named after Rolf Boldrewood, an Australian writer who was admired by his mother. He attended Perth Modern School in Subiaco.

As an adolescent and young adult Harris was a champion swimmer being the Australian Junior 110 yards Backstroke Champion in 1946 and Western Australian state champion over a variety of distances and strokes during the period 1948–1952.

Harris was created a Commander of the British Empire (CBE) on 17 June 2006, having previously been created a Member (MBE) in 1968 and an Officer (OBE) in 1977.

Please note the following three posts are written by a brilliant man in the days when we didnt take life so seriously and singing a song was just singing a song - none was ever meant to harm

Spoken Introduction:
There's an old Australian stockman, lying, dying. He gets himself up on one elbow, turns to his mates, who are gathered round, and he says:

Watch me wallaby's feed, mate, watch me wallaby's feed.
They're a dangerous breed, mate, so watch me wallaby's feed.
All together now!

He lives somewhere out on the track, Mac,
So take me koala back.

Tie me kangaroo down.


Rolf Harris

Craven A

Now gather round you fellows and if you'll be still
I'll tell you of a bastard born at Bellevue Hill,
Born at Boswell Hill, but raised in Camberwell,
And the first three words he uttered were
"Bloody Fucking Hell

Craven A, never heard of fornication,
Craven A, never has wet dreams,
Craven A, quite content with masturbation,
Fooling with his foreskin in the school latrines.

When he went to Geelong Grammar there was much ado,
He buggared all the masters and the prefects too,
They finally expelled him, so the records say,
For tossing off the Duke of York on Founder's Day.

Craven A, never heard of fornication,
Craven A, never has wet dreams,
Craven A, quite content with masturbation,
Fooling with his foreskin in the school latrines.

His entrance to University was quite grotesque
He went and laid his penis on his tutor's desk,
Said his tutor "If it falls of at a later date
Please inform me and I'll use it as a paper weight!"

Craven A, never heard of fornication,
Craven A, never has wet dreams,
Craven A, quite content with masturbation,
Fooling with his foreskin in the school latrines.

While rowing for the Varsity on boat race day
He lost his oar and masturbated all the way
They won by half a length but were disqualify
For rogering the women on the Middlesex side.

Craven A, never heard of fornication,
Craven A, never has wet dreams,
Craven A, quite content with masturbation,
Fooling with his foreskin in the school latrines.

The landlady's daughter, Millie, was as nice as can be,
She always brought her cunt up with a cup of tea,
She'd been through her so often that the courts declare
Her vagina constitutes a legal thoroughfare.

Craven A, never heard of fornication,
Craven A, now he has wet dreams,
Craven A, not content with masturbation,
Gets his urges as regular as you and me

And she will always carry on

Let me inside you
Into your room
I’ve heard it’s lined
With the things you don’t show
Lay me beside you
Down on the floor
I’ve been your lover
From the womb to the tomb
I dress as your daughter
When the moon becomes round
You be my mother
When everything’s gone

And she will always carry on
Something is lost
But something is found
They will keep on speaking her name
Somethings change
Some stay the same

Keep beckoning to me
From behind that closed door
The maid and the mother
And the crone that’s grown old

I hear your voice
Coming out of that hole
I listen to you
And I want some more
I listen to you
And I want some more

And she will always carry on
Something is lost
But something is found
They will keep on speaking her name
Some things change
Some stay the same

Come let me love you

Smiles sometimes our lives float on air
and nothing can bring us down,
feeling really happy today
spring is in the air

You fill up me senses like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime, like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert, like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses come fill me again.

Come let me love you, let me give my life to you
Let me drown in your laughter, let me die in your arms
Let me lay down beside you, let me always be with you
Come let me love you, come love me again.

...Let me give my life to you
Come let me love you, come love me again.

You fill up my senses like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime, like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert, like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses, come fill me again.
John Denver

can change your life...
forever...

I was standing all alone against the world outside.
You were searching for a place to hide.
Lost and lonely,
Now you've given me the will to survive.
When we're hungry. . . love will keep us alive.

Don't you worry.
Sometimes you've just gotta let it ride.
The world is changing right before your eyes.
Now I've found you,
There's no more emptiness inside.
When we're hungry. . . love will keep us alive.

I would die for you
Climb the highest mountain
Baby, there's nothing I wouldn't do.
Now I've found you
There's no more emptiness inside
When we're hungry. . . love will keep us alive.

I would die for you
Climb the highest mountain
Baby, there's nothing I wouldn't do I was standing
All alone against the world outside
You were searching
For a place to hide
Lost and lonely
Now you've given me the will to survive

When we're hungry. . . love will keep us alive.
When we're hungry. . . love will keep us alive.
When we're hungry. . . love will keep us alive.

Only Lonely

After having listened to this song I realised how well it is suited to this scenario. How we all come to think about each other and colour each other's worlds and yet mostly we will never get to see each other's faces, hear each other's voices or even know each other's names.
Yet I am so grateful that we have the opportunity to colour each others lives over the net.


Hello again
Your words they make me smile
As I drift away
In my little room upstairs

Oh I spend my nights
Imagining your face your touch
Then I realize
How I don't even know your name

If we could share our time
Would I disappoint your fantasies
I believe that you could be the one I'm needing
'cause I'm

only lonely on the inside
didn't mean to take away your dreams
only lonely on the inside
when you close your eyes to your deepest thoughts

I could start to give apologies
For all the stupid things That I will say and I will do
If we should ever cross the same place at the same time
Would your world skip a beat 'cause it was me

If we could share our life
Would I disappoint your memories
I believe that I could be the one your needing
And I'm

If I could give back your hopes your joys your treasures
Don't you think that I would change my world
But there's so many things trying to pull us together
Even though we're far apart I can still watch you walk away

Only lonely on the inside
Didn't mean to take away your dreams
Only lonely on the inside
When you close your eyes do you see me

(in your deepest thoughts do you see me)
(when you close your eyes, in your deepest thoughts do you see me)

Only Lonely
Performed by Hootie And The Blowfish

Sailing

Smiles to a very dear friend on his special day.
My heart sails away to be with you
Thank you for the many dreams we share of sailing and exploring the wild open spaces.
For the times we have gone in our minds to the places we both love to explore.
Thank you for colouring my life.
Though the distance devides us
you remain close in my heart.
I am sailing, I am sailing,
home again 'cross the sea.
I am sailing, stormy waters,
to be near you, to be free.

I am flying, I am flying,
like a bird 'cross the sky.
I am flying, passing high clouds,
to be with you, to be free.

Can you hear me, can you hear me
thro' the dark night, far away,
I am dying, forever trying,
to be with you, who can say.

Can you hear me, can you hear me,
thro' the dark night far away.
I am dying, forever trying,
to be with you, who can say.

We are sailing, we are sailing,
home again 'cross the sea.
We are sailing stormy waters,
to be near you, to be free.

Oh Lord, to be near you, to be free.
Oh Lord, to be near you, to be free,
Oh Lord.

HUMAN TOUCH

The words of Bruce Springsteen just say it all...You and me we were the pretenders
We let it all slip away
In the end what you don't surrender
Well the world just strips away

Girl, ain't no kindness in the face of strangers
Ain't gonna find no miracles here
Well you can wait on your blesses my darlin'
But I got a deal for you right here

I ain't lookin' for praise or pity
I ain't comin' 'round searchin' for a crutch
I just want someone to talk to
And a little of that Human Touch
Just a little of that Human Touch

Ain't no mercy on the streets of this town
Ain't no bread from heavenly skies
Ain't nobody drawin' wine from this blood
It's just you and me tonight

Tell me, in a world without pity
Do you think what I'm askin's too much
I just want something to hold on to
And a little of that Human Touch
Just a little of that Human Touch

Oh girl that feeling of safety you prize
Well it comes at a hard hard price
You can't shut off the risk and the pain
Without losin' the love that remains
We're all riders on this train

So you've been broken and you've been hurt
Show me somebody who ain't
Yeah, I know I ain't nobody's bargain
But, hell, a little touchup
and a little paint...

You might need somethin' to hold on to
When all the answers, they don't amount to much
Somebody that you could just to talk to
And a little of that Human Touch

Baby, in a world without pity
Do you think what I'm askin's too much
I just want to feel you in my arms
Share a little of that Human Touch
Feel a little of that Human Touch
Give me a little of that Human Touch




HUMAN TOUCH
Bruce Springsteen

Take these broken wings

When Some one believes in you the world seems so much kinder, your face relaxes and becomes softer.
The worries of the world seem so far away.
But love is a two way system, ying and yang, give and take. Holding on and draining another person only brings them down.
If things don't seem so good any more think about what is missing, what can you do to make your "wings" worth having, holding and loving.

The book of love opens up when love is shared!
Broken Wings
Baby don't understand
Why we can't just hold on
To each other's hands
This time might be the last
I fear unless I make it all too clear
I need you so

Take these broken wings
And learn to fly again
And learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up
And let us in
Take these broken wings

Baby I think tonight
We can take what was wrong
To make it right
Baby it's all I know
That you're half of the flesh
And blood makes me whole
Need you so

Take these broken wings
And learn to fly again
And learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up
And let us in

Take these broken wings
You got to learn to fly
And learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing
Let us in
Let us in

Baby it's all I know
That you're half of the flesh
And blood makes me whole
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah so

Take these broken wings
And learn to fly again
And learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up
And let us in

Take these broken wings
You got to learn to fly
And learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up
And let us in

don't give up

Have you ever met any one who makes a strong impact on the way you feel?
I am talking of a positive effect where you actually sit back and realise how much potential you have and that only you can make that difference?
Alot of us go through stages in our lives where we loose faith in who we are and it seems that any which way you turn the doors are shut.
Be patient and realise that if you take control of your life consider everything that has happened, learn from the past you can build a brighter future, don't wait until tomorrow. Take control today - the sooner you believe in you, and act on that belief, the sooner things fall into place.
Don't give up...
in this proud land we grew up strong
we were wanted all along
I was taught to fight, taught to win
I never thought I could fail

no fight left or so it seems
I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
I've changed my face, I've changed my name
but no one wants you when you lose

don't give up
'cos you have friends
don't give up
you're not beaten yet
don't give up
I know you can make it good

though I saw it all around
never thought I could be affected
thought that we'd be the last to go
it is so strange the way things turn

drove the night toward my home
the place that I was born, on the lakeside
as daylight broke, I saw the earth
the trees had burned down to the ground

don't give up
you still have us
don't give up
we don't need much of anything
don't give up
'cause somewhere there's a place
where we belong

rest your head
you worry too much
it's going to be alright
when times get rough
you can fall back on us
don't give up
please don't give up

'got to walk out of here
I can't take anymore
going to stand on that bridge
keep my eyes down below
whatever may come
and whatever may go
that river's flowing
that river's flowing

moved on to another town
tried hard to settle down
for every job, so many men
so many men nne needs

don't give up
'cause you have friends
don't give up
you're not the only one
don't give up
no reason to be ashamed
don't give up
you still have us
don't give up now
we're proud of who you are
don't give up
you know it's never been easy
don't give up
'cause I believe there's the a place
there's a place where we belong




PETER GABRIEL LYRICS

Words

Smile, an everlasting smile
A smile can bring you near to me
Don't ever let me find you wrong
Cause that would bring a tear to me
This world has lost it's glory
Lets start a brand new story
Now my love
You think that I don't even mean
A single word I say...

It's only words
And words are all I have
To take your heart away

Talk, in everlasting words
And dedicate them all, to me
And I will give you all my life
I'm here if you should call to me
You think that I don't even mean
a single word I say...

It's only words
And words are all I have
To take your heart away

This world has lost it's glory
Now, my love
You think that I don't even mean
A single word I say...

It's only words
And words are all I have
To take your heart away

It's only words
And words are all I have
To take your heart away

I'd like to teach the world to sing

As children we all dream of being something when we leave school, sometimes we achieve what we set out to do - sometimes our goals change.

When I was young I used to sing this song and this was my life's ambition to make the world a better place - I started off studying nursing, then went on to teaching - I was living the life I dreamed of. You might have noticed I use the word smiles often, my nickname was "Smiler" and the funny thing was it followed me - even to places where no one could have known my name.
Isn't it funny how some names just suite people?

What were your dreams as a child - did you follow your dreams?
Does your name suite you?

I'd Like To Teach The World To Sing

I'd like to build the world a home
and furnish it with love.
Grow apple trees and honey bees
and snow white turtle doves.
Teach the world to sing
in perfect harmony.
I'd like to hold it in my arms
and keep it company.

I'd like to see the world for once
all standing hand in hand.
And hear them echo through the hills
for peace throughout the land.

That's the song that I hear.
Let the world sing today.
A song of peace that echos on
And never goes away.

I'd like to see the world for once
all standing hand in hand;
And hear them echo through the hills
for peace throughout the land.

The Rose

Last night on the phone a special friend dedicated this song to me. I sat back and thought - he couldn't have chosen a better song for me and I just want to say thank you.
This is a promise to him that I will learn to live again. To trust that love can be a special and gentle thing that does not hurt.
I often write blogs - they are written to me just as much as they are there for others to read.
I am making a decision today to let down my defenses and to start letting the world care about me again, it is a wonderful world -
I just need to learn how to smile again...
Some say love, it is a river
that drowns the tender reed.
Some say love, it is a razor
that leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger,
an endless aching need.
I say love, it is a flower,
and you it's only seed.

It's the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance.
It's the dream afraid of waking
that never takes the chance.
It's the one who won't be taken,
who cannot seem to give,
and the sould afraid of dyin'
that never learns to live.

When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been to long,
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong,
just remember in the winter
far beneath the winter snows
lies the seed that with the sun's love
in the spring becomes the rose.
Bette Midler.

Somewhere Only We Know

I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete

Oh simple thing where have you gone
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?

Oh simple thing where have you gone
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?

Oh simple thing where have you gone
I'm getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you're gonna let me in
I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

So if you have a minute why don't we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
So why don't we go

This could be the end of everything
So why don't we go
Somewhere only we know?

Unbelievable

always said i would know where to find love,
always thought i'd be ready and strong enough,
but some times i just felt i could give up.
but you came and changed my whole world now,
i'm somewhere i've never been before.
now i see, what love means.

it's so unbelievable,
and i don't want to let it go,
something so beautiful,
flowing down like a waterfall.
i feel like you've always been,
forever a part of me.
and it's so unbelievable to finally be in love,
somewhere i'd never thought i'd be.

in my heart, in my head, it's so clear now,
hold my hand you've got nothing to fear now,
i was lost and you've rescued me some how-.
i'm alive, i'm in love you complete me,
and i've never been here before.
now i see, what love means.

when i think of what i have, and this chance i nearly lost,
i cant help but break down, and cry.
ohh yeah, break down and cry.
now i see, what love means

I have a notion about each life being a paintbrush, it is up to us to choose if we want to be the paint brush or the artist behind the paintbrush.
If we are the paint brush we are affected by other people, what other people do and say has alot of influence over how we behave.
If however we are the artist we allow ourselves the right to make our own decisions, guided by our own perceptions.
If you want to be happy you need to take charge of your own lives.

No one can make you feel inferior with out your permission.
Ellenor Roosevelt


Take charge of your own paint brush today and allow yourself to be happy with the decisions you make - if you are doing what makes you happy others around you will notice and life becomes a whole lot easier.....
PS - I am not suggesting you get even, just don't put so much energy into the things that upset you rather concentrate on the things that make you feel good. By concentrating less on those things that upset you they eventually fade away.
Desert loving in your eyes all the way
If I listen to your lies would you say
Im a man without conviction
Im a man who doesnt know
How to sell a contradiction
You come and go
You come and go

Karma karma karma karma karma chameleon
You come and go
You come and go
Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dream
Red, gold and green
Red, gold and green

Didnt hear your wicked words every day
And you used to be so sweet I heard you say
That my love was an addiction
When we cling our love is strong
When you go youre gone forever
You string along
You string along

Every day is like a survival
Youre my lover not my rival
Every day is like a survival
Youre my lover not my rival

Im a man without conviction
Im a man who doesnt know
How to sell a contradication
You come and go
You come and go
