WOW!! Impressive! You were the person I thought of when I chose that song for tonight - I wanted to throw in a classical piece for you. :)

This song makes me cry every time.
 

Steve Walsh - Just How It Feels

Safe for Ma and Kids? Yes

From out of the corner of grandfather's eye
there sparkles a knowledge of living
for years he has learned to get by with what is
cause he lives in a world full of giving.

Time again he has told me about when
We danced just to celebrate our freedom

I surely think he knows just how it feels.

From out the kitchen my grandmother smiles
She's baked what she knows I will savor.
She recalls an old story and we laugh very hard
At all of the mischief I gave her.

And as she grows old she has memories to hold
And love soothes the pain in her body.

I surely think she knows just how it feels.

Then when I lay down many miles from my home
I see them, I hear them, they're around me.
"Good morning" they say as they greet the new day
Always busy and knowing no boundaries.

Grandfather is clear - his words ring in my ear:
"Life is just what you will make it."

I surely think they know just how it feels.
