Play Me

Play Me by Neil Diamond

She was morning, and I was night time
I one day woke up
To find her lying beside my bed
I softly said “Come take me”
For I’ve been lonely in need of someone
As though I’d done someone wrong somewhere
But I don’t know where, I don’t know where
Come lately

You are the sun, I am the moon
You are the words, I am the tune
Play me

Song she sang to me
Song she brang to me
Words that rang in me,
Rhyme that sprang from me
Warmed the night, and what was right
Became me

You are the sun, I am the moon
You are the words, I am the tune
Play me

And so it was that I came to travel
Upon a road that was thorned and narrow
Another place, another grace
Would save me

You are the sun, I am the moon
You are the words, I am the tune
Play me
You are the sun, I am the moon
You are the words, I am the tune
Play me……

Coming to America

Enjoy the day!

You Don’t Bring Me Flowers

You don’t bring me flowers anymore
I don’t smile the smile that sets yours heart aglow
You don’t caress the way you always used to do
I don’t embrace your soul the way I was able to
You don’t love me anymore
I won’t ever stop loving you
You don’t, I won’t, we can’t – my heart
Is crushed like flowers you don’t bring me
When I see we are no more

Hello

Hello again
It’s been awhile
You’ve been too long
The silence has been eating away
And now you’re back
To say hello
Hello

Happiness Is

Happiness is…
Bookcase brimming with books
Cracklin Rosie wafting past my senses
Voice of Neil Diamond – bliss
