Dear Beverly

Just stopped in to say hello.

          You remembered me.

Always.

Misty; foggy morning.
Damp and dreary.

Rain late tonight.
How much?  Who knows.
Spring can't come soon enough.

Miss your smile.

Have a tune for you today ... Enjoy.

You should've seen by the look in my eyes, baby
There was somethin missin
You should've known by the tone of my voice, maybe
But you didn't listen
You played dead
But you never bled
Instead you lay still in the grass
All coiled up and hissin
And though I know all about those men
Still I don't remember
Cause it was us baby, way before then
And we're still together
And I meant, every word I said
When I said that I love you I meant
That I love you forever

And I'm gonna keep on lovin you
Cause it's the only thing I wanna do
I don't wanna sleep
I just wanna keep on lovin you

And I meant every word I said
When I said that I love you I meant
That I love you forever

And I'm gonna keep on lovin you
Cause it's the only thing I wanna do
I don't wanna sleep
I just wanna keep on lovin you

Dear Beverly

Just stopped in to say that you are in my heart and on my mind this morning.

           Mi Amor, you remembered me.

Always.

Steel gray skies ... chilly.

A melancholy day,
rain on the way.

Have a tune for you today.
A fun one from your boy ... enjoy.

Well a man come on the 6 o’clock news
Said somebody’s been shot, somebody’s been abused
Somebody blew up a building
Somebody stole a car
Somebody got away
Somebody didn’t get too far yeah
They didn’t get too far

Grandpappy told my pappy, back in my day, son
A man had to answer for the wicked that he done
Take all the rope in Texas
Find a tall oak tree, round up all of them bad boys
Hang them high in the street for all the people to see that

Justice is the one thing you should always find
You got to saddle up your boys
You got to draw a hard line
When the gun smoke settles we’ll sing a victory tune
We’ll all meet back at the local saloon
We’ll raise up our glasses against evil forces
Singing whiskey for my men, beer for my horses

We got too many gangsters doing dirty deeds
We’ve got too much corruption, too much crime in the streets
It’s time the long arm of the law put a few more in the ground
Send ’em all to their maker and he’ll settle ’em down
You can bet he’ll set ’em down ’cause

Justice is the one thing you should always find
You got to saddle up your boys
You got to draw a hard line
When the gun smoke settles we’ll sing a victory tune
We’ll all meet back at the local saloon
We’ll raise up our glasses against evil forces
Singing whiskey for my men, beer for my horses

Justice is the one thing you should always find
You got to saddle up your boys
You got to draw a hard line
When the gun smoke settles we’ll sing a victory tune
We’ll all meet back at the local saloon
We’ll raise up our glasses against evil forces
Singing whiskey for my men, beer for my horses

Dear Beverly

Just stopped in to say hello.

           You remembered me.

Always.

Had a chat with Judith yesterday about you.
We talked about our dinner with old
friends this past Saturday night.

We talked about how attentive and kind;
gentle he was with his wife of many years.
She is suffering from a brain tumor that
has weakened her body, but not her spirit.

He was so gentle and patient with her.
Caring; sweet ... it was beautiful.

If only someone had treated you the same way.
How different a world for you to live in.

Judith and I talked about it.
It was good ... we talked of the beauty
and not the anger.  It was good.

Have a tune for you today ...
It says it all about how it should be.

I am so sorry that this was not a part of your life.

Enjoy.

Link:  Thompson Square: Glass 

Trying to live and love,
With a heart that can't be broken,
Is like trying to see the light with eyes that can't be opened.
Yeah, we both carry baggage,
We picked up on our way, so if you love me do it gently,
And I will do the same.

We may shine, we may shatter,
We may be picking up the pieces here on after,
We are fragile, we are human,
We are shaped by the light we let through us,
We break fast, cause we are glass.
Cause we are glass.

I'll let you look inside me, through the stains and through the cracks,
And in the darkness of this moment,
You see the good and bad.
But try not to judge me, 'cause we've walked down different paths,
But it brought us here together, so I won't take that back.

We may shine, we may shatter,
We may be picking up the pieces here on after,
We are fragile, we are human,
We are shaped by the light we let through us,
We break fast, cause we are glass.

We might be oil and water, this could be a big mistake,
We might burn like gasoline and fire,
It's a chance we'll have to take.

We may shine, we may shatter,
We may be picking up the pieces here on after,
We are fragile, we are human,
And we are shaped by the light we let through us,
We break fast, cause we are glass.
We are glass.

Dear Beverly

Just stopped by to say hello and how much I miss you.

           Oh Doll, you remembered me.

Always.

Grace and kindness.

Tenderness and caring.

It seems so simple.

Why couldn’t these be a part of your life?

It seems so simple.

Have a tune for you today … enjoy.

Link:   Lady Antebellum: Dancin' Away With My Heart

I finally asked you to dance
On the last slow song
Beneath that moon that was really a disco ball
I can still feel my head on your shoulder
And hoping that song would never be over

I haven't seen you in ages
Sometimes I find myself
Wondering where you are
For me you'll always be 18
And beautiful and dancin' away with my heart

I brushed your curls back so I could see your eyes
And the way you moved me was like you were reading my mind
I can still feel you lean into kiss me
I can't help but wonder if you ever miss me

I haven't seen you in ages
Sometimes I find myself
Wondering where you are
For me you'll always be 18
And beautiful and dancin' away with my heart

You headed off to college
At the end of that summer and we lost touch
I guess I didn't realize even at that moment we lost so much

I haven't seen you in ages
Sometimes I find myself
Wondering where you are
For me you'll always be 18
And beautiful and dancin' away with my heart

Nah nah nah

Nah nah nah

Nah nah nah

Away with My Heart

Nah nah nah

Nah nah nah

Nah nah nah

Dear Beverly

Just stopped in to say hello.

        Mi Amor, you remembered me.

Always.

Dinner with old friends last night.

It was nice; nice to get away.

Long day, work … keeps my mind off things.

Have a tune for you today … one of your favorites

Enjoy.

Link:   Boz Scaggs: Look What You’ve Done To Me

Hope they never end this song
This could take us all night long
I looked at the moon and I felt blue
Then I looked again and I saw you
Eyes like fire in the night
Bridges burning with their light
Now I want to spend the whole night through
And Honey, Yes, I'd like to spend it all on you

Love, look what you've done to me
Never thought I'd fall again so easily
Oh, love, you wouldn't lie to me
Leading me to feel this way.....

They might fade and turn to stone
Let's get crazy all alone
Hold me closer than you'd ever dare
Close your eyes and I'll be there
After all is said and done
After all you are the one
Take me up your stairs and through the door
Take me where we don't care anymore.....

Love, look what you've done to me
Never thought I'd fall again so easily
Oh, love, you wouldn't lie to me ...would you
Leading me to feel this way.....

Love, look what you've done to me
Never thought I'd fall again so easily
Oh, love, you wouldn't lie to me
Leading me to feel this way...

Dear Beverly

You are in my heart and on my mind this day.

           You remembered me.

Always.

Stopped by the grocery store last night.

Picked up this and that.

Walked by the flower stand.

They had sunflowers in for the first time this year.

Hit me like a ton of bricks.

Have a tune for you today.

“They say I’ll be OK
But I’m not going to ever get over you”

So true … enjoy.

Link:  Miranda Lambert: Over You

Weather man said it’s gonna snow

By now I should be used to the cold
Mid-February shouldn’t be so scary
It was only December
I still remember the presents, the tree, you and me

But you went away
How dare you?
I miss you
They say I’ll be OK
But I’m not going to ever get over you

Living alone here in this place
I think of you, and I’m not afraid
Your favorite records make me feel better
Cause you sing along
With every song
I know you didn’t mean to give them to me

But you went away
How dare you?
I miss you
They say I’ll be OK
But I’m not going to ever get over you

It really sinks in, you know, when I see it in stone

Cause you went away,
How dare you?
I miss you
They say I’ll be OK
But I’m not going to ever get over you

Dear Beverly

You are in my heart on this sunny winter's morn.

         Oh Doll, you remembered me.

Always.

Up early ... sunny day promised.
Hopeful.

Miss your smile.

Have a tune for you today from one of my favorite tunesmiths
"Should I say that it's a blue world without you" 
So true ... enjoy.

Link:  Paul Williams: Nice to be Around

Hello such a simple way to start a love affair
Should I jump right in and say how much I care
Would you take me for a mad man or a simple hearted clown
Hello with affection from a sentimental fool
To a little girl who's broken of every rule
One who brings me up when all the others seem to let me down
One whose nice to be around

Should I say that it's a blue world without you
Nice words I remember from an old love song
But all wrong, cause I never called it love before
This feeling's new - this came with you

And I know that the nicest things that never seem to last
That we're both a bit embarrassed by our past
But I think there's something special in the feelings that we've found
And you're nice to be around
And you're nice to be around
