While going through you tube this morning... I found this one. HOW could I have forgotten HARRY!!!!!???

I was at this concert. One of his last. I was in the lobby after the concert and didn't realize the table I was standing by was his reception area. I had written down a lyric that I thought he would enjoy. I turned around and there he was. I handed him my scribble..he red it and as I turned to go I felt a strong hand hook my arm and turn me around an planted a kiss on my lips. I'll never forget that night.

And now I give you A Better Place to Be

ok, think and cry at the same time, by Ryan (NOT Bryan) Adams...

La Cienega Just Smiled

"Ah the night... here it comes again"
It's on with the jeans, the jacket and shirt
How'd I end up feeing so bad
For such a little girl

And I hold you close in the back of my mind
Feels so good but damn it makes me hurt
And I'm too scared to know how I feel about you now
Las cienega just smiled... "see ya around"
And I hold you close in the back of my mind
And raise my glass 'cause either way I'm dead
Neither of you really help me to sleep anymore
One breaks my body and the other breaks my soul
La cienega just smiles as it waves goodbye

"Ah the night... here it comes again"
It's off with the jeans, the jacket and the shirt
How'd I end up feeling so bad
For such a little girl
And I hold you close in the back of my mind
Feels so good but damn it makes me hurt
And I'm too scared to know how I feel about you now
How I feel about you now
La cienega just smiles and says, "I'll see you around"

What's the matter with you people? How could you forget Seasons in the Sun, by Terry Jacks?!

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun.
But the stars we could reach
were just starfish on the beach

Sniff.

Okay, I’m kidding. That song nauseates me, too. But I will add my votes to the aforementioned At Seventeen, by Janis Ian, Edmund Fitzgerald, by Gordon Lightfoot, and A Better Place to Be, By Harry Chapin. You can pretty much add just about anything by Harry. You can also add several by Neil Diamond. Red, Red, Wine deserves mention but my favorite Neil Diamond song is, Stones.

Stones would play inside her head
And where she slept,
They made her bed
And she would ache
For love and get but stones

La la la la la la la la la

Lordy, child
A good day’s comin’
And I’ll be there to let the sun in
And bein’ lost
Is worth the comin’ home

La la la la la la la la la on stones

You and me, a time for planting
You and me, a harvest granting
The every prayer ever prayed
For just two wild flowers that grow

La la la la la la la la la on stones

Wind beneath my wings makes me cry like a baby, becasue of the associations.
Masterpiece does the same
Always by Atlantic Starr is extremely romantic and makes me think about my exhusband (and the good stuff) since it was my wedding song
Everything I do I do it for you is my all time favorite love song, and depending on who I am dancing to it with, I might cry
Butterfly Kisses makes me bawl ever since my father sang it to me after my divorce and told me he had been practicing becasue he had wanted to surrise me with it at the wedding but never attended

I'm such a sap, this song has moved me since I was about 12. YouTube - Cat Stevens - How Can I Tell You And I don't know if anyone mentioned this one yet, but "The way we were" (barbara streisand) does me in every single time. I can't even bear to listen to it.

One by U2 (pretty much how I felt when I left the husband)
Is it getting betterOr do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame
You say...

One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it

Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's...

Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One...

Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other

One...life

One

Brand New Day by Van Morrison (pretty much how I feel now!)
When all the dark clouds roll away
And the sun begins to shine
I see my freedom from across the way
And it comes right in on time
Well it shines so bright and it gives so much light
And it comes from the sky above
Makes me feel so free makes me feel like me
And lights my life with love

And it seems like and it feels like
And it seems like yes it feels like
A brand new day, yeah
A brand new day oh

I was lost and double crossed
With my hands behind my back
I was longtime hurt and thrown in the dirt
Shoved out on the railroad track
Ive been used, abused and so confused
And I had nowhere to run
But I stood and looked
And my eyes got hooked
On that beautiful morning sun

And it seems like and it feels like
And it seems like yes it feels like
A brand new day, yeah
A brand new day oh

And the sun shines down all on the ground
Yeah and the grass is oh so green
And my heart is still and Ive got the will
And I dont really feel so mean
Here it comes, here it comes
0h here it comes right now
And it comes right in on time
Well it eases me and it pleases me
And it satisfies my mind

And it seems like and it feels like
And it seems like yes it feels like
A brand new day, yeah
A brand new day
