Hey! Welcome to 52 weeks until I’m 50 years old! Actually it’s now 42 weeks until I’m 50! If you are new to my blog, to the right are other subjects I’ve written. Some may resonate with you or at least give you a chuckle. If you are counting down with me,so glad you are still with me!

Music means so much to me. I hear a song and I’m transported back to a moment in time. The song may remind me of where I was, a person I was with or a moment that just crystallized something for me. I can relate to the poetry or story the lyrics represent so often. You know what I mean. You hear a song that played when you had your first really amazing kiss. Remember the song that played when you didn’t want to leave someone as you were driving away? The tunes that played while you were hanging out with your friends and you sang the chorus in unison? Your first concert and all the other concerts you’ve been to where every word was burnt into your memory and you sang them with all your soul. The fist-pumping you do when you hear your favorites. Turn it up, louder, decibels that could blow out the speakers so you feel alive! I’ve got the music in me. I feel it coming over me….Somethin’s at the edge of your mind, you don’t know what it is. Somethin’ you were hopin’ to find. Your not sure what it is.Then you hear the music and it all comes crystal clear. The music does the talkin’, says the things you want to hear. I’m young, I’m wild, and I’m free…I’ve got the Magic Power of the music in me!

At 49.42 left until 50, lyrics and music are part of my being and fill me daily. It’s the way I communicate with others. Lyrics, song titles and even movie lines. I dig the poetry. I dig relating to the stories. I dig singing in unison with thousands of others. There’s nothing like a little tune-age to make you feel alive. So this week, I share my love of lyrics with you.

Here’s a little ditty from me, Ran. “Ooh you make me live, whatever this world can give to me. It’s you you’re all I see. Ooo you make me live now honey. Ooo you make me live..Ooh you’re the best friend that I ever had. I’ve been with you such a long time, you’re my sunshine and I want you to know, that my feelings are true. I really love you. You’re my best friend.  Life Is A Rock but the radio rolled me. Gotta turn it up louder, so my DJ told me.Life Is a Rock but the radio rolled me, at the end of my rainbow lies a golden oldie. And…no one…absolutely no one…should ever, I mean ever Rain On My Parade! Don’t tell me not to live, just sit and putter, life’s candy and the sun’s a ball of butter, don’t bring around a cloud to rain on my parade. Don’t tell me not to fly–I’ve simply got to. If someone takes a spill, it’s me and not you. Who told you you’re allowed to rain on my parade! I’m gonna live and live now. You with me? Because…Life is a Highway and I want to ride it all night long. If you’re going my way, I want to drive it all night long. Then morning comes and It’s A Beautiful Day, sky falls, you feel like it’s a beautiful day, don’t let it get away! You’re on the road but you’ve got no destination. I want you to see the world in green and blue. And remember, One love, one life, we get to share it, leaves you baby if you don’t care for it. And there’s a time for everyone if they only learn, that the twisting kaleidoscope moves us all in turn, There’s a rhyme and reason to the wild outdoors, when the heart of this star-crossed voyager beats in time with yours. Can You Feel The love Tonight? And, do you know that there’s a Hero if you look inside your heart? You don’t have to be afraid of what you are. There’s an answer if you reach into your soul and the sorrow that you know will melt away. I believe People, people who need people, are the luckiest people in the world. Isn’t it rich, aren’t we a pair? Me here at last on the ground, you in mid-air? Send in the Clowns! Yup…I love the clowns! But I want you to tell everybody this is Your Song. It may be quite simple, but now that it’s done, I hope you don’t mind, that I put down in words. How wonderful life is while you’re in the world. But that’s not all, I see trees of green, red roses too. I see them bloom for me and you, And I think to myself what a Wonderful World. I see skies of blue and clouds of white. The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night. And I think to myself what a Wonderful World. And maybe you can try to get up every morning with a smile on your face and show the world all the love in your heart. Then people gonna treat you better, you’re gonna find, yes you will, that you’re Beautiful as you feel! And you can come with me to the Top Of The World. Look down on creation and the only explanation we will find, is the love that I’ve found ever since you’ve been around, your love’s put me at the Top Of The World. Always remember, my love for you is immeasurable. My respect for you immense. You’re ageless, timeless, lace and fineness. You’re beauty and elegance. You’re a rhapsody, a comedy. You’re a symphony and a play. You’re every love song ever written. And guess what? You mean the world to me…
