~~Ah yes, Angel,
What is it about Roy Orbison's voice that captivates? Unfortuntely his song reminded me of the song below that only three people yet alive will remember. But I liked it, and will honor it -with the boards kind acquiescence -here and now...


You went away and left me.
You left me all alone.
To do a thing like that. Your heart must be made of stone.

I did every thing I could. I tried to treat you right.
I worked hard every day, and I loved you every night.
Still you went away and left me, you left me all alone.
To do a thing like that, your heart must be made of stone.

Your Heart (must be made of stone) -Clarence Jr. Lewis

Now I feel better
.

Post Edit: Please forgive me everyone. I selfishly tried to use this board to purge the deep hurt of thirty years past. Thank you Wordwind for jumping ahead of me. I feel better already. Who knows? Maybe by tommorrow, or the next day, or one day after that, I will be able to wipe away the tears and smile and post as a happy man -once again.

My mama told me, she said, "Son, please beware"
"There's this thing called love and it's everywhere"
She told me, "It can break your heart and leave you in misery"
And since I met this little woman,
I feel it's happening to me, and I'm tellin' you

It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm fallin' in love
It's too late to turn back now
I believe, I believe, I believe I'm falling in love

I should have known you'd bid me farewell
There's a lesson to be learned from this and I learned it very well
Now I know you're not the only starfish in the sea
If I never hear your name again, it's all the same to me

And I think it's gonna be all right
Yeah, the worst is over now
The mornin' sun is shinin' like a red rubber ball

Come on and celebrate, good times, tonight (Celebrate good times, come on!)
'Cause everything's gonna be all right
Let's celebrate (Celebrate good times, come on)
(Let's celebrate)...


Celebrate

Sat on the roof
And I kicked off the moss
Well some of the verses well
They got me quite cross
But the sun's been kind
While I wrote this song
It's for people like you that
Keep it turned on


Ewan MacGregor - Your Song

Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, [di-di-dah-dah] here comes the sun
And I say it's all right

Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here
-- Here Comes the Sun; [George Harr-i-son] here comes the sun
And I say it's all right


For all the good times, thank you George.

(Oh, you can depend on me)
Over and over, over and over
(Oh, and I intend to be)
I'm the one who always makes you laugh until you cry
And you can call on me until the day you die

Years may come and go,
Here's one thing I know...
All my life, you're a friend of mine.

You're a Friend of Mine, Michael McDonald & Clarence Clemmons

There are places I remember all my life,
Though some have changed,
Some forever, not for better,
Some have gone and some remain.

In My Life
~~John Lennon and Paul McCartney
Edit: I originally listed the name of this song as All My Life but have changed it to the correct In My Life. Thanks Fiberbabe for the PM!

Officer Krupke
We're down on our knees
'Cause no one wants a fella
With a social disease
Dear Officer Krupke
What are we to do?
Gee, Officer Krupke
Krup you!

Gee, Officer Krupke from "West Side Story"
