A Sign

I know I just used this picture the other day, but there isn't a better one to describe what happened on Sunday night... as I was listening to a talk radio show on the internet and shortly after I had typed the post for last night with the song that I had sent to Jim what seems like so long ago now... this song started playing over the hosts of the show... the music is in the video below... the lyrics are below the video... needless to say... I continued to cry for another hour... but it was a good cry... I promise, Honey, to send you a song... a lot of songs... so many you'll be begging me to shut up... your wait on the shore will be worthwhile... and maybe we can have someone get Bethie to sing along too...



"Send Me A Song"

Take the wave now and know that you're free,
Turn your back on the land face the sea,
Face the wind now so wild and so strong,
When you think of me,
Wave to me and send me a song.

Don't look back when you reach the new shore,
Don't forget what you're leaving me for,
Don't forget when you're missing me so,
Love must never hold,
Never hold tight but let go.

Oh the nights will be long,
When I'm not in your arms,
But I'll be in your song, That you sing to me, across the sea.
Somehow, someday, you will be far away,
So far from me and maybe one day,
I will follow you,
And all you do,
'Til then, send me a song.

When the sun sets the water on fire,
When the wind swells the sails of your hire,
Let the call of the bird on the wind,
Calm your sadness and loneliness,
And then start to sing to me,
I will sing to you,
If you promise to send me a song.

I walk by the shore and I hear,
Hear your song come so faint,
And so clear,
And I catch it, a breath on the wind,
And I smile and I sing you a song,
I will send you a song...
I will sing you a song,
I will sing to you...
If you promise to send me a song.
