Dear Beverly

Just stopped by to say hello.  
You are on my mind and in my heart this morning.

           Oh Doll, you remembered me.

Always.

A gloomy Monday.  
Gray skies as far as the eye can see.

Can't help but be down in the dumps, just a little.

Have an appropriate tune for you today.
Loved how they weren't songs, but "tunes" to you.

How anyone could have hurt you escapes me.
All you every wanted in life was to be loved.

The Carpenters: Rainy Days and Mondays

Talkin' to myself and feelin' old
Sometimes I'd like to quit
Nothing ever seems to fit
Hangin' around
Nothing to do but frown
Rainy Days and Mondays always get me down.

What I've got they used to call the blues
Nothin' is really wrong
Feelin' like I don't belong
Walkin' around
Some kind of lonely clown
Rainy Days and Mondays always get me down.

Funny but it seems I always wind up here
with you
Nice to know somebody loves me

Funny but it seems that it's the only thing to do
Run and find the one who loves me.

What I feel has come and gone before
No need to talk it out
We know what it's all about
Hangin' around
Nothing to do but frown
Rainy Days and Mondays always get me down. 

Dear Beverly

Just stopped in to say hello.

          Mi Amor.   You remembered me.

Always.

The Ohio State University beat Michigan in a close game.
Missed it ... was in bed all day with a nasty bug.
A truly nasty bugs.   Yuck.

Have a tune for you today ... an oldie, enjoy.

Platters: Smoke Gets in Your Eyes

Baby,
They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
I of course replied
"Something here inside
Cannot be denied"

They said someday you'll find
All who love are blind
When your heart's on fire
You must realise
Smoke gets in your eyes

So I chaffed and I gaily laughed
To think they would doubt my love
Yet today, my love has flown away
I am without my love

Now laughing friends deride
Tears I cannot hide
So I smile and say
"When a lovely flame dies,
Smoke gets in your eyes."

Just stopped in to say hello.

       You remembered me.

Always.

Big game this morning.

Michigan vs The Ohio State University.

I know it wasn’t your thing.

Dodgers; you boys; your boys in blue.

That was your world.

Have a tune for you today … enjoy.

The Police: Every Breath You Take

Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
I'll be watching you.

Every single day
Every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay
I'll be watching you.

Oh can't you see
You belong to me?
How my poor heart aches with every step you take.

Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you.

Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace.
I dream at night, I can only see your face.
I look around but it's you I can't replace.
I feel so cold, and I long for your embrace.
I keep crying baby, baby please...

Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you.

Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you...

Dear Beverly

Good morning, just stopped by to say that you are in my heart and on my mind.

           Oh Doll, you remembered me.

Always.

Thanksgiving with family.

Wondered how you would have spent the day.

It would have been a day to have your kids with you.

A chance to smile.

A chance to laugh.

A chance to talk and catch up on things.

 

A chance to say, “I love you.”

A chance for them to say, “I love you, mom.”

A chance … a chance … a chance, no longer.

Have a tune for you today … enjoy.

Big & Rich: That's Why I Pray

Oh oh oh oh, oh oh, yeah

Man on the TV’s gone insane, everybody’s just laughing
People ’cross the world holding on
The earth caved in, the ocean came down crashing
My neighbor lost his house ’cause he can’t find a job
Don’t you dare pledge allegiance, don’t you dare speak of God
Speak of God
Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!

Now I’m begging for forgiveness
I wanna make a difference even in the smallest way
I’m only one person, but I can feel it working
I believe in better days
That’s why I pray

Some stupid video posted as a joke, somebody’s life gets ruined
Out of everything we can create
Where is the cure to keep the sick from losing
Babies having babies ’cause their parents are always gone
Somehow we have forgotten how to make a house a home
How to make a house a home
Oh! Oh! Yeah! Yeah!

I’m begging for forgiveness, I wanna make a difference
Even in the smallest way
I’m only one person, but I can feel it working
I believe in better days
That’s why I pray, yeah
That’s why I pray, yeah

These demons from my past haunt me every night
And I just can’t get through it
If I could forget them on my own, I’ll let go and just move on
But heaven knows I am only human

And that’s why I pray, yeah yeah
That’s why I pray, I pray, I pray, I pray

Yes I’m begging for forgiveness

Dear Beverly

Happy Thanksgiving.
Happy indeed, letter arrived yesterday.
All is well.   You'd be happy to hear that.

It's all good.  It's all good.

Have a tune for you today ... enjoy.

Sugarland Tonight

If words could make it real I'd tell you how I feel
Instead I'm waiting here on my knees, love
I know how it feels to breath with you beside me
I think about it always

Tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm waiting for, waiting for the night
Tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm waiting for, waiting for

A lifetime for a day would be an even trade
No price I wouldn't pay for your heart, love
I know how it feels to breath with you beside me
I think about it always

Tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm waiting for, waiting for the night
Tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm waiting for, waiting for

Tonight, tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight

Tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm waiting for, waiting for the night
Tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm waiting for, waiting for

Tonight, tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight, tonight

Just stopped by to tell you that it is a beautiful morning.

        You remembered me.

Always.

Last night I was talking with a lady

She said that mornings for her are the hardest

She showed the signs of age

Lines in her face … wisdom.

The mornings are when I remember him most.

It has been a year, but I still miss him everyday.

That’s what she said to me. 

I nodded in agreement.

Have a tune for you today

A fun one about a beautiful mornin’ … enjoy

The Rascals: It's a Beautiful Morning

It's a beautiful mornin', ah
I think I'll go outside a while
And just smile
Just take in some clean fresh air, boy!
Ain't no sense in stayin' inside
If the weather's fine, and you got the time
It's your chance to wake up and plan another brand new day
Either way

It's a beautiful mornin', ah
Each bird keeps singin' his own song
So long!
I've got to be on my way now
Ain't no fun just hangin' around
I've got to cover ground; you couldn't keep me down
It just ain't no good if the sun shines
When you're still inside
Shouldn't hide, still inside, shouldn't hide
Ah, oh! (Shouldn't hide) Ah, ah, oh

(Doo, doo-wa) (Doo, doo-wa)

There will be children with robins and flowers
Sunshine caresses each new waking hour
Seems to me that the people keep seeing
More and more each day; gotta say, lead the way
It's okay, Wednesday, Thursday, it's okay
(Ah) Monday, Wednesday, Friday, weekday, ah, ah, oh

(Doo, doo-wa)

Ah, ah, oh, oh (do, doo-wa)
Woo, ooo, ooo, oh, oh, oh, ah, woo, doo-wa
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Good morning, stopped in to say hello.

          Oh Doll, you remembered me.

Always.

Have a tune for you today.

“I remember when I lost my mind,” it was on an August evening.

“Bless your soul, you really think you’re in control?”

My guess is that you thought you were.

Of course you took control … and that is what makes it so incredibly sad.

http://youtu.be/lAIvDj0PW94

I remember when
I remember, I remember when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that place
Even your emotions have an echo in so much space

And when you're out there, without care
Yeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much

Does that make me crazy?
Does that make me crazy?
Does that make me crazy?
Possibly

And now that you are having the time of your life
Well think twice
That's my only advice

Come on now
Who do you
Who do you
Who do you
Who do you think you are?
Ha ha ha
Bless your soul
You really think you're in control?
Well

I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me

My heroes had the heart
To live the life I wanna live
And all I remember is thinking
I wanna be like them
Mmhmm
Ever since I was little
Ever since I was little, it looked like fun
And as no coincidence I've come
And I can die when I'm done

Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably
