"When you're alone, who cares for starlit skies When you're alone, the magic moonlight dies At break of dawn, there is no sunrise When your lover has gone What lonely hours, the evening shadows bring What lonely hours, with memories lingering Like faded flowers, life can't mean anything When your lover has gone" "WHEN YOUR LOVER HAS GONE" I sometimes listen to the Louis Armstrong Version 11:55:07 AM

"So, we're all vowed to survive and I think if -- you know, if we can just survive one more day that maybe the next day will be a little bit less difficult to survive." Michael Berg father of Nicholas Berg who was captured and beheaded in Iraq last May. 11:05:34 AM

Is this weblog somehow my threnody for Cindy?  I was mentioning to someone last night about how many of the songs that I have liked through the years now seem like they were actually written as a threnody.  Many of them are actually love songs, and many are songs of lost loves, but I think that most have nothing to do with mourning or grief.  Although, there are those that when I listen to them now I can't imagine that the writer of those lyrics hasn't been through the pain that we have been through. "Thought I saw you today You were standing in the sun then you turned away And I knew it couldn't be but my heart believed Oh it seems like something everyday How could you be so far away When you're still here When I need you you're not hard to find You're still here I can see you in my baby's eyes And I laugh and cry You're still here " "You're Still Here" Faith Hill 6:49:57 AM
