~Love Songs~



Fields of Gold

Youll remember me when the west wind moves

Upon the fields of barley
Youll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in the fields of gold

So she took her love
For to gaze awhile
Upon the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold

Will you stay with me, will you be my love

Among the fields of barley
Well forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we lie in the fields of gold

See the west wind move like a lover so
Upon the fields of barley
Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth
Among the fields of gold
I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that Ive broken

But I swear in the days still left
Well walk in the fields of gold
Well walk in the fields of gold

Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
Among the fields of gold
Youll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley

You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in the fields of gold
When we walked in the fields of gold
When we walked in the fields of gold

Killing Me Softly With His Song
Roberta Flack

Strumming my pain with his fingers,

Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song,
Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song ...

I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style.
And so I came to see him to listen for a while.
And there he was this young boy, a stranger to my eyes.

Strumming my pain with his fingers,

Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song,
Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song ...

I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd,
I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud.
I prayed that he would finish but he just kept right on ...

Strumming my pain with his fingers,

Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song,
Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song ...

He sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair.
And then he looked right through me as if I wasn’t there.
But he just came to singing, singing clear and strong.

Strumming my pain with his fingers,

Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song,
Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song ...

He was strumming, oh, he was singing my song.
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song,

Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song ...
With his song ...

The Temptations

I’ve got sunshine on a cloudy day.
When it’s cold outside I’ve got the month of May.

I guess you’d say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin’ ‘bout my girl (my girl).

I’ve got so much honey, the bees envy me.
I’ve got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees.
I guess you’d say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)

Talkin’ ‘bout my girl (my girl).

Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Ooooh.

I don’t need no money, fortune, or fame.
I’ve got all the riches baby one man can claim.
I guess you’d say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)

Talkin’ ‘bout my girl (my girl).

I’ve got sunshine on a cloudy day
with my girl.
I’ve even got the month of May
with my girl (fade)

The Moody Blues - Nights in White satin´67

Nights in white satin,

Never reaching the end,
Letters Ive written,
Never meaning to send.

Beauty Id always missed
With these eyes before,
Just what the truth is
I cant say anymore.

cause I love you,
Yes, I love you,

Oh, how, I love you.

Gazing at people,
Some hand in hand,
Just what Im going thru
They can understand.

Some try to tell me
Thoughts they cannot defend,
Just what you want to be
You will be in the end,

And I love you,
Yes, I love you,
Oh, how, I love you.
Oh, how, I love you.

Nights in white satin,
Never reaching the end,
Letters Ive written,
Never meaning to send.

Beauty Id always missed

With these eyes before,
Just what the truth is
I cant say anymore.

cause I love you,
Yes, I love you,
Oh, how, I love you.
Oh, how, I love you.

cause I love you,
Yes, I love you,

Oh, how, I love you.
Oh, how, I love you.

Whitney Houston - I Will Always Love You

If I
Should stay
I would only be in your way
So I’ll go

But I know
I’ll think of you every step of
the way
And I...
Will always
Love you, oohh
Will always
Love you
You

My darling you
Mmm-mm

Bittersweet
Memories
That is all I’m taking with me
So good-bye
Please don’t cry
We both know I’m not what you
You need

And I...
Will always love you
I...
Will always love you
You, ooh
I hope
life treats you kind
And I hope
you have all you’ve dreamed of

And I wish you joy
and happiness
But above all this
I wish you love

And I...
Will always love you
I...
Will always love you

I, I will always love

You....
You
Darling I love you
I’ll always
I’ll always
Love
You..
Oooh
Ooohhh

*Video*



Artist/Band: Nelson Willie
Lyrics for Song: Always on My Mind

Maybe I didn’t love you
Quite as often as I could have
Maybe I didn’t treat you
Quite as good as I should have

If I made you feel second best
Girl I’m sorry I was blind

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Maybe I didn’t hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
And I guess I never told you
I’m so happy that you’re mine
Little things I should have said and done

I just never took the time

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Tell me, tell me that your
Sweet love hasn’t died
And give me
Give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied
satisfied

Little things I should have
Said and done
I just never took the time

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind....

That sounds like fun! Hope you all have a good time and
don’t get flooded out. They have really had it as far
as rain is concerned.

I have absolutely loved our “cool” summer...haven’t you?

I started to say "Somewhere beyond the Sea" - Bobby Darin,

but when my beautiful and talented wife began playing
"Lara's Theme from "Doctor Zhivago" (Somewhere My Love)
on her piano.       ...the balalaikas!

"Mull of Kintyre" - Paul McCartney       ...the bagpipes!

It has been rather pleasant this summer. Funny how Global Warming has resulted in a cooler, wetter summer for us.

Luckily, the rain that they have had is one of those “once in a lifetime” type rain storms. I almost feel sorry for the newbies to the area who ignored the advice of the locals and built their new homes next to the rivers and lakes. There is a reason why hill country natives build their homes on ground about 30 feet above the water level of the nearest body of water.

Yes, there are always those folks who think they know more than the average bear and end up with their home floating down the Brazos or Perdenales to a new location given by Mother Nature! Sheesh!
