[Soron]

Kayte, it was a wonderous week having Arden and her daughter here with me. I don't have to tell you all the highs and lows you go through with one of these visits. I hope you and Snooze had a great week.

Red,
Hope all is going well with the house...

For my love...

LET MY LOVE OPEN THE DOOR
(Pete Townshend)

When people keep repeating
That you'll never fall in love
When everybody keeps retreating
But you can't seem to get enough

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
To your heart

When everything feels all over
When everybody seems unkind
I'll give you a four leaf clover
Take all the worry out of your mind

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
To your heart

I have the only key to your heart
I can stop you falling apart
Try today, you'll find this way
Come on and give me a chance to say
Let my love open the door
It's all I'm living for
Release yourself from misery
There's only one thing gonna set you free
That's my love

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
To your heart

When tragedy befalls you
Don't let it drag you down
Love can cure your problems
You're so lucky I'm around

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
To your heart

Arden ~ Congratulations on making 10,000 posts !!!!!

Thanks Kayte!

I am so behind in replying to posts from the trip South, but I wouldn't trade a single moment spent with Soron for anything else on this earth.

Arden ~ I can well imagine that. I am so glad to hear it was so wonderful for the two of you.

Would you care to join me for a dance, Soron?

BRING IT DOWN TO JELLY ROLL
(John Fogerty)

Well, if you want
To ease your mind
You just go on
Take it to the river
When you're down
Well, that's alright
You just bring it down to Jelly Roll

We're gonna run
A jump and shout
We're gonna slide
Way back in the country
There's a place
Where they treat you right
You just bring it down to Jelly Roll

The little girls
Way down south
They got their way
Honey drippin' from their mouth
If you ever get some luck
You better bring it down to Jelly Roll

Now look at me
Lord, I ain't got a dime
But I can dance
Lord, I'm jumping all the time
I live honey, straight to the bone
I just bring it down to Jelly Roll

Well, if you want
To ease your mind
You just go on
Take it to the river
When you're down
Well that's alright
You just bring it down to Jelly Roll

Baby, you wear the outfit in that Av and I'll dance with you anytime.

 

[Arden]

Baby, you wear the outfit in that Av and I'll dance with you anytime.

I believe it's violet colored saran wrap ~wink~ How good are you at wrapping things?

 

[Soron]

I believe it's violet colored saran wrap ~wink~ How good are you at wrapping things?

Hmmm, I'm not sure. I do know, I'm good at unwrapping things though.

 

[Arden]

Hmmm, I'm not sure. I do know, I'm good at unwrapping things though.

How good?

 

[Soron]

How good?

Oh, probably the best there is when I'm inspired.

 

[Arden]

YOU'RE THE INSPIRATION
Peter Cetera


You know our love was meant to be
The kind of love that lasts forever
And I need you here with me
From tonight until the end of time

You should know, everywhere I go
You're always on my mind, in my heart
In my soul

You're the meaning in my life
You're the inspiration
You bring feeling to my life
You're the inspiration
Wanna have you near me
I wanna have you hear me sayin'
No one needs you more than I need you

And I know, yes I know that it's plain to see
We're so in love when we're together
And I know that I need you here with me
From tonight until the end of time

You should know, everywhere I go
Always on my mind, in my heart
In my soul

You're the meaning in my life
You're the inspiration
You bring feeling to my life
You're the inspiration
Wanna have you near me
I wanna have you hear me sayin'
No one needs you more than I need you

You're the meaning in my life
You're the inspiration
You bring feeling to my life
You're the inspiration
Wanna have you near me
I wanna have you hear me sayin'
No one needs you more than I need you

Hoping you both had a great vacation.

Hugs & s to you both!

Thank you, Lee

It was wonderful being with him again...

 

[H'venlee]

Thank you, Lee

It was wonderful being with him again...

Great to hear. I hope he let you out to come back home with a little bit of a tan...and I don't just mean on your backside.

 

[Arden]

Great to hear. I hope he let you out to come back home with a little bit of a tan...and I don't just mean on your backside.

I could have used a little more sun, but then I wouldn't have had as much fun.

Oh, and the other tan, too

 

[Soron]

Great to hear. I hope he let you out to come back home with a little bit of a tan...and I don't just mean on your backside.

~perk~ Did I hear backside?

A DREAM

In visions of the dark night
I have dreamed of joy departed-
But a waking dream of life and light
Hath left me broken-hearted.
Ah! what is not a dream by day
To him whose eyes are cast
On things around him with a ray
Turned back upon the past?

That holy dream- that holy dream,
While all the world were chiding,
Hath cheered me as a lovely beam
A lonely spirit guiding.

What though that light, thro' storm and night,
So trembled from afar-
What could there be more purely bright
In Truth's day-star?

Edgar Allan Poe

I WANT YOU
(Bob Dylan)

The guilty undertaker sighs,
The lonesome organ grinder cries,
The silver saxophones say I should refuse you.
The cracked bells and washed-out horns
Blow into my face with scorn,
But it's not that way,
I wasn't born to lose you.
I want you, I want you,
I want you so bad,
Honey, I want you.

The drunken politician leaps
Upon the street where mothers weep
And the saviors who are fast asleep,
They wait for you.
And I wait for them to interrupt
Me drinkin' from my broken cup
And ask me to
Open up the gate for you.
I want you, I want you,
I want you so bad,
Honey, I want you.

Now all my fathers, they've gone down
True love they've been without it.
But all their daughters put me down
'Cause I don't think about it.

Well, I return to the Queen of Spades
And talk with my chambermaid.
She knows that I'm not afraid
To look at her.
She is good to me
And there's nothing she doesn't see.
She knows where I'd like to be
But it doesn't matter.
I want you, I want you,
I want you so bad,
Honey, I want you.

Now your dancing child with his Chinese suit,
He spoke to me, I took his flute.
No, I wasn't very cute to him,
Was I?
But I did it, though, because he lied
Because he took you for a ride
And because time was on his side
And because I . . .
I want you, I want you,
I want you so bad,
Honey, I want you.

IVE BEEN WORKING TOO HARD ~ Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes
(Steven Van Zandt)

Brothers and sisters gathered here today
I got something I want to share with you
Now let me warn you it's a sad sad story
But I swear every word is true

Now money and me don't talk too much
We never got along too well
But when I got some in my pocket
I seem to have a lot more friends
I pay the landlord and the taxman
And it's time to go to work again

Can I get a witness - can I get a witness
I need somebody - let me hear you say yeah

I've been workin' too hard
I've been workin' too hard
I've been workin' too hard
I got to get just a little out of control

I've been workin' too hard
I've been workin' too hard
I've been workin' too hard
Gotta find somebody just to soothe my soul

I had a young girl back in Cleveland
My baby would not be true
It took a while to realize
The evil that some girls do
I told her mother and father what I did
They said what kind of work is that
They said I just didn't have the fear of God
They could tell by the way I laughed
She ran off with a preacher's son
In a ragtop cadillac

Can I get a witness - you know I need a witness
I need somebody - let me hear you say yeah

I've been workin' too hard
I've been workin' too hard
I've been workin' too hard
I got to get just a little out of control

I've been workin' too hard
I've been workin' too hard
I've been workin' too hard
Gotta find somebody just to soothe my soul

Well people I've learned my lesson
And I've learned my lesson well
Some girls want your money
But your money is the Devil himself
But life can get confusing
Whether you're high, low, rich or poor
I swear when you get right down to it
There's only one thing I know for sure
Before this night is over
I'll be trouble and lookin' for more

Can I get a witness - I got to find a witness
I need somebody - let me hear you say yeah

I've been workin' too hard
I've been workin' too hard
I've been workin' too hard
I got to get just a little out of control

I've been workin' too hard
I've been workin' too hard
I've been workin' too hard
Gotta find somebody just to soothe my soul

Oh Yes!!! Another one of my favorites !!!! They are so good to see live too. Sighs.... it has been awhile. Gee, time is going so fast.

I do love 'Vertigo'. Just trying to remember which album I have it on.....

 

[Soron]

I'm searching my brain trying to remember which album "Vertigo" is on, Kayte. They are one of THE best live bands ever. I saw them once at the gym here at South Florida. They were awesome.
I know you remember this one...

I DON'T WANT TO GO HOME
(Steven Van Zandt)

I know the time is getting late
But I don't want to go home
I'm in no hurry baby time can wait
'Cause I don't want to go home

Listen to the man sing his song
I don't want to go home
I don't mind if it takes all night long
'Cause I don't want to go home

I know we had to try
To reach up and touch the sky
Whatever happened to you and I
I don't want to go home

Look at how all the people stare
I don't want to go home
In their minds I know they've all been there
And I don't want to go home

I know the words to this song are real
I don't want to go home
I know he's talking 'bout the way I feel
And I don't want to go home

I want to hear people laughing and having a good time
I want to know why she told me she had to go
Why did she leave me lonely?

I know that it's time to go
But I don't want to go home
Play the blues brother soft and low
I don't want to go home

Now I remember It was on "Reach Up and Touch the Sky - Live" It is a great album.

I saw them in Madison WI. I was in fifth row seating. It was marvelous.
