The Hobbit Hole XXV - Fare you well! Fare you well!
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 10/15/2005 7:13:08 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Fare you well! Fare you well!

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

Aha! *slams down a copy of "You've Got Mail" on the table*

I'll just sit back and enjoy the cringing and hissing. :-D

Sorry pal... but Casablanca beats Bridges, even by Vegas rules.

Sheesh. Just when the game was getting good.

And I still have "Ghost" and "Forever Young" in my hand.

Hmm, if it's a gesture, gift, or event big enough I'm willin' to try a good cry. I just haven't had anything worth crying over in the last few years.

When I need a good cry I generally reach for, in order:

CD: Journey, Still they Ride. (long sick story)
CD: Journey, Open Arms. (Same sick story, long version)
CD: Pearl Jam, Black. (duh... )
CD: Pearl Jam, Jeremy.

David did summer work at SirKit's company for a couple of summers. He made some series cash, too!

Well, anything by Journey will get a person going if they're melancholy to begin with. Steve Perry...need I say more?

A few Air Supply songs do the same thing, although they aren't nearly as effective (or good).

But Pearl Jam? That's new to me. Even though Jeremy is a very tough song to hear.
