TGIF!!!

Good morning Soron, Arden and Lee. Hope you don't mind I didn't come in with a song today. My voice is still recovering from last night's rehearsal. Now that we are in to singing for Lent, we are also working on all the new and old pieces we do for Holy Week and the Triduum. Have a great day and a wonderful weekend all. :)
 
WHEN I THINK ABOUT ANGELS (Jamie O'Neal)

Why does the color of my coffee match your eyes?
Why do I see you when a stranger passes by?
I swear I hear you in the whisper of the wind
I feel you when the sun is dancin' on my skin
And, when it's raining
You won't find me complainin', 'cause...

When I think about rain
I think about singing
When I think about singing
It's a heavenly tune
When I think about Heaven
Then I think about angels
When I think about angels
I think about you

The taste of sugar sure reminds me of your kiss
I like the way that they both linger on my lips
Kisses remind me of a field of butterflies
Must be the way my heart is fluttering inside
Beautiful distraction
You make ev'ry thought a chain reaction

When I think about rain
I think about singing
When I think about singing
It's a heavenly tune
When I think about Heaven
Then I think about angels
When I think about angels
I think about you

Anywhere I go
Anything I do
Ev'rything around me, baby
Makes me think of you

When I think about rain
I think about singing
When I think about singing
It's a heavenly tune
When I think about Heaven
Then I think about angels
When I think about angels
I think about you
 
That's beautiful, Lee! *Waves to Kayte*

FARWELL ANGELINA
Bob Dylan

Farewell Angelina
The bells of the crown
Are being stolen by bandits
I must follow the sound
The triangle tingles
And the trumpet play slow
Farewell Angelina
The sky is on fire
And I must go.

There's no need for anger
There's no need for blame
There's nothing to prove
Ev'rything's still the same
Just a table standing empty
By the edge of the sea
Farewell Angelina
The sky is trembling
And I must leave.

The jacks and queens
Have forsaked the courtyard
Fifty-two gypsies
Now file past the guards
In the space where the deuce
And the ace once ran wild
Farewell Angelina
The sky is folding
I'll see you in a while.

See the cross-eyed pirates sitting
Perched in the sun
Shooting tin cans
With a sawed-off shotgun
And the neighbors they clap
And they cheer with each blast
Farewell Angelina
The sky's changing color
And I must leave fast.

King Kong, little elves
On the rooftoops they dance
Valentino-type tangos
While the make-up man's hands
Shut the eyes of the dead
Not to embarrass anyone
Farewell Angelina
The sky is embarrassed
And I must be gone.

The machine guns are roaring
The puppets heave rocks
The fiends nail time bombs
To the hands of the clocks
Call me any name you like
I will never deny it
Farewell Angelina
The sky is erupting
I must go where it's quiet.

WORLDS APART
(Bruce Springsteen)

I hold you in my arms, that's when it starts
I seek faith in your kiss, and comfort in your heart
I taste the seed upon your lips, lay my tongue upon your scars
But when I look into your eyes, we stand worlds apart

Where the distant oceans sing, and rise to the plain
In this dry and troubled country, your beauty remains
Down from the mountain roads where the highway rolls to dark
'Neath Allah's blessed rain, we remain worlds apart

Sometimes the truth just ain't enough
Or it's too much in times like this
Let's throw the truth away, we'll find it in this kiss
In your skin upon my skin, in the beating of our hearts
May the living let us in, before the dead tear us apart

We'll let blood build a bridge, over mountains draped in stars
I'll meet you on the ridge, between these worlds apart
We've got this moment now to live, then it's all just dust and dark
Let love give what it gives
Let's let love give what it gives.
 
You wrapped me up in the color of love...

KISS OF LIFE
Sade

There must have been an angel by my side
Something heavenly led me to you
Look at the sky
It's the color of love
There must have been an angel by my side
Something heavenly came down from above
He led me to you
He led me to you
He built a bridge to your heart
All the way
How many tons of love inside
I can't say

When I was led to you
I knew you were the one for me
I swear the whole world could feel my heartbeat
When I lay eyes on you
Ay ay ay
You wrapped me up in
The color of love

You gave me the kiss of life
Kiss of Life
You gave me the kiss that's like
The kiss of life

Wasn't it clear from the start
Look the sky is full of love
Yeah the sky is full of love
He built a bridge to your heart
All the way
How many tons of love inside
I can't say

You gave me the kiss of life
Kiss of Life
You gave me the kiss that's like
The kiss of life

You gave me the kiss of life
Kiss of Life
You gave me the kiss that's like
The kiss of life

You gave me the kiss of life
Kiss of Life
You gave me the kiss that's like
The kiss of life

You wrapped me up in the color of love
Must have been an angel come down from above
Giving me love yeah
Giving me love yeah

You gave me the kiss of life
Kiss of Life
You gave me the kiss of life
The kiss of life

:rose: :heart: :heart: :rose:
 

You wrapped me up in the color of love
Must have been an angel come down from above
Giving me love yeah
Giving me love yeah


I hope you're having a good Sunday, my love. :rose:
 
Night and day, you are the one...

NIGHT AND DAY
Ella Fitzgerald


Like the beat beat beat of the tom-tom
When the jungle shadows fall
Like the tick tick tock of the stately clock
As it stands against the wall
Like the drip drip drip of the raindrops
When the summer shower is through
So a voice within me keeps repeating you, you, you
Night and day, you are the one
Only you beneath the moon or under the sun
Whether near to me, or far
It's no matter darling where you are
I think of you
Day and night, night and day, why is it so
That this longing for you follows wherever I go
In the roaring traffic's boom
In the silence of my lonely room
I think of you
Day and night, night and day
Under the hide of me
There's an oh such a hungry yearning burning inside of me
And this torment won't be through
Until you let me spend my life making love to you
Day and night, night and day

:heart: :heart:
 
Whether near to me, or far
It's no matter darling where you are
I think of you
Day and night, night and day, why is it so
That this longing for you follows wherever I go
In the roaring traffic's boom
In the silence of my lonely room
I think of you


I'm sorry I missed you this afternoon, Arden. :rose:
 
19 Somethin'
Mark Wills

I Saw Star Wars at least eight times
Had the Pac Man pattern memorized
And I've seen the stuff they put inside Stretch Armstrong
Well, I was Roger Staubach in my back yard
Had a shoebox full of baseball cards
And a couple of Evil Kanevil scars on my right arm
Well I was a kid when Elvis died
And my mama cried

It was 1970 somethin'
In the world that I grew up in
Farah Faucet hairdo days
Bell bottoms and eight track tapes
Lookin' back now I can see me
Oh man did I look cheesy
I wouldn't trade those days for nothin'
Ah, it was 1970 somethin'

It was the dawning of a new decade
We got our first microwave
Dad broke down and finally shaved those sideburns off
I took the stickers off my Rubiks cube
Watched Mtv all afternoon
My first love was Daisy Duke
In them cut-off jeans
Space shuttle fell out of the sky
And the whole world cried

It was 1980 somethin'
In the world that I grew up in
Skatin' rinks and black Trans Ams'
Big hair and Parachute pants
And lookin' back now I can see me
Oh man did I look cheesy
I wouldn't trade those days for nothin'
Ah, it was 1980 somethin'

Now I got a mortgage and SUV
But all this responsibility
Makes me wish...sometimes

That it was 1980 somethin'
In the world that I grew up in
Skatin' rinks and black Trans Ams'
Big hair and Parachute pants
And lookin' back now I can see me
Oh man did I look cheesy
I wouldn't trade those days for nothin'
Ah, it was 1980 somethin'

1970 somethin'...

Ah it was 19 somethin'

Goodnight...

GOODNIGHT, MY LOVE
Ella Fitzgerald


Goodnight my love, the tired old moon is descending,
Goodnight my love, my moment with you now is ending.
It was so heavenly, holding you close to me,
It will be heavenly to hold you again in a dream,
The stars above have promised to meet us tomorrow,
Til then, my love, how dreary the new day will seem,
So for the present dear, we'll have to part,
Sleep tight my love, goodnight my love,
Remember that you're my sweetheart.

:heart: :heart:


I'm such a sucker for old movies... ;)
 
HOOCHIE COOCHIE MAN ~ Mudddy Waters
(Willie Dixon)

The gypsy woman told my mama
On the day I was born
Oh, you got a boy child comin'
Oh Lord, he's gonna be a sun of a gun
He's gonna make those pretty women
You know, he's gonna make 'em jump and shout
The whole wide world gonna wonder
What it's all about

Yeah, you know I'm here
And everybody knows I'm here
I'm your Hoochie Coochie man
Oh Lord, Everybody knows I'm here

I got a black cat bone
Lord I got a mojo too
I got little John, the conquered
Oh baby, I'm gonna mess with you
I'm gonna grab those pretty women
I'm gonna grab 'em by the hand
You know, the whole wide world gonna know
Oh Lord, I'm your Hoochie Coochie man
Yes, you know I'm here
Everybody knows I'm here

On the seventh hour
Oh Lord, on the seventh day
I tell you on the seventh month, child
Hey, the seven doctors say
Now he was born for luck
I said, baby, don't you see
I got seven hundred dollars darlin'
Don't you mess with me

Because I'm here
Everybody, everybody knows I'm here
I'm you Hoochie Coochie man
Hey, I tell you, everybody knows I'm here

This song has been done by so many different people. But, Muddy Waters is the only one who can make it sound so sexual....


I JUST WANT TO MAKE LOVE TO YOU
(Willie Dixon)

I don't want you to be no slave
I don't want you to work all day
I don't want you to be true
I just want to make love to you

I don't want you to wash my clothes
I don't want you to keep my home
I don't want your money too
I just want to make love to you

Well I can see by the way that you switch and walk
And I can tell by the way that you baby talk
And I know by the way that you treat your man
I wanna love you baby, it's a cryin' shame

I don't want you to bake my bread
I don't want you to make my bed
I don't want you cause I'm sad and blue
I just want to make love to you
 
BORIS THE SPIDER ~ The Who
(John Entwistle)

Look, he's crawling up my wall
Black and hairy, very small
Now he's up above my head
Hanging by a little thread

Boris the spider
Boris the spider

Now he's dropped on to the floor
Heading for the bedroom door
Maybe he's as scared as me
Where's he gone now, I can't see

Boris the spider
Boris the spider

Creepy, crawly
Creepy, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly

There he is wrapped in a ball
Doesn't seem to move at all
Perhaps he's dead, I'll just make sure
Pick this book up off the floor

Boris the spider
Boris the spider

Creepy, crawly
Creepy, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly
Creepy, creepy, crawly, crawly

He's come to a sticky end
Don't think he will ever mend
Never more will he crawl 'round
He's embedded in the ground

Boris the spider
Boris the spider

:devil:
 
Hey, was that the same Boris...

that was at your house the other night?

:eek:

No, I don't think so, baby. This one wasn't creepy. Just crawly.
Hey! Remember 'Creepy Crawlers' by Mattell? ;)
 
I Wish You'd Stay
Brad Paisley

(Written by Chris Dubois and Brad Paisley.)


I talked to my sister in Memphis,
And told her you were movin' to town.
Here's her number,
She said she'd be glad to show you around.
Well, I left a map on your front seat,
Just in case you lose your way.
But don't worry,
Once you reach Sallisaw it's all interstate.
I know you need to go.
But before you do, I want you to know:

That I wish you the best.
And I wish you nothing less,
Than everything you've ever dreamed of.
And I hope that you find love along the way.
But most of all, I wish you'd stay.

I figure right about sundown,
You'll be in West Tennessee.
And by then,
Maybe, I'll understand, why you had to leave.
I know that you've done some changin',
And I know there's no changin' your mind.
Yes I know,
We've been through this a thousand times.
I'm sorry for still holdin' on;
I'll try to let go and I'll try to be strong.

And I wish you the best.
And I wish you nothing less,
Than everything you've ever dreamed of.
I hope that you find love along the way.
Most of all, I wish you'd stay.

Yes, everything you've ever dreamed of.
And I hope that you find love along the way.
But most of all, I wish you'd stay.
I wish you'd stay.

Don't you remember I told you about my 4th grade friend, Jimmy... we had Creepy Crawler lizard houses in our desks! :D

Ok let me ask you this, do you remember how bad they smelled when you burned them? Ewwwww!!!!! :eek:

Hi Lee!

I hope you have an enjoyable weekend! :rose:

Morning Arden.

I am looking forward to a fun couple of days. I just wish I could turn off my brain for a bit. Sleep did not come easy last night.

Hope you are doing well & enjoying the weather.

Hugs to you!
