A song or two

A song or two Category: Romance and Relationships If I had to pick just one or two songs to express how I have felt about someone throughout my life it comes down to two. The first is "Wheels" by Maria Mckee. If you do not know who she is she fronted the band Lone Justice in the very early 80's. She was aptly described in Rolling Stone Magazine as "Janis Joplin meets Patsy Cline". Check out her stuff. I picked this song becuase just like the singer in the song I know when a certain person is somewhere nearby and when they are thinking of me. Freaky huh? Everytime this particular woman would try to suprise me at work she could never do it. I always see her before she sees me. I know the sound of her footsteps. She knows this and still cannot sneak up on me. I spotted her once in a crowded Sports Arena during a San Diego Soccers game. I wish you never even loved me It makes it so hard to live without love now I know you're often thing of me Sometimes I feel you so close by that it takes all my might to keep from trying to track you down I can surly keep you out of sight Forget about the way you look,your smile,the way you speak But I've heard in the dead of night Outside my window silence breaking with the sollid destination of your lonesome speed Chours I know the sound of your wheels yeah,yeah,yeah I know the sound of your wheels yeah,yeah,yeah I know the sound of your wheels I had a handle on my sorrow My composure was in order if not sufficiently intact But every reminiscent echo Brings a blow to chill my sesses and my heart quakes and tenses 'till those moments pass Chours Every trace, every vision Brings my emotions to collision Past love's lost tokens Every cherished thought once spoken False hope of reconciliation The other song is by the greatest pop band of all-time (sorry Stones fans) The Beatles and that songs is "In My Life" There are places I'll remember All my life though some have changed Some forever not for better Some have gone and some remain All these places have their moments With lovers and friends I still can recall Some are dead and some are living In my life I've loved them all. But of all these friends and lovers There is no one compares with you And these mem'ries lose their meaning When I think of love as something new Though I know I'll never lose affection For people and things that went before I know I'll often stop and think about them In my life I love you more. Though I know I'll never lose affection For people and things that went before I know I'll often stop and think about them In my life I love you more. In my life I love you more. Music is the soundtrack to Life. This is for you Nature Dame... "Granitewalker" XOXOX
