HOW LUCKY I AM TO HAVE YOU FOR MY FAMILY OVER
THE LAST 9 YEARS !
THEN I WAS SAD BECAUSE MY PHOTO-BUCKET SITE WHERE I HAVE MY ALBUMS OF IMAGES TO BRING TO YOU IS CAUSING TROUBLE ! NOW FIND THAT THESE IMAGES HAVE BEEN
REMOVED AND ALL THAT REMAINS IN A LITTLE BOX WITH A
? MARK ? uffff I AM OF COURSE NOT A HAPPY CAMPER !
TODAY STILL NOT WORKING. BUT THEN YOU KNOW ONE DOOR CLOSES & ANOTHER DOOR OPENS! I WENT TO MY ALBUMS AT DREAMIE.DE AND HERE I AM WITH IMAGES TO SEND YOU
FROM MY HEART. I THOUGHT CARMEN SELECT A CHRISTMAS MESSAGE JUST IN CASE THERE ARE MORE TECHNICAL ISSUES.

CHRISTMAS SONG I WAS SENDING AND IT WAS LOST UFFFF. BUT THEN I DID NOT GIVE UP & FOUND A NEW LINK WITH MY SAME SELECTION..AS I AM FINISHING WITH THE POSTING ON YOUTUBE IT WENT TO THE NEXT PIECE AND I DISCOVER ANDREA BOCELLI WITH RETURN TO LOVE AND AS PROMISED ANOTHER DOOR OPENS & I AGAIN COME WITH LOVE'S MEANING FOR US HUMANS AND NOW I SHARE WITH YOU.

ERASURE - Don't Suppose (Country Joe Mix).
https://youtu.be/tYZnz2L3-vA

I don't suppose it's gonna do any good
If i sit down and write you a letter
You made it plain and i guess i understood
There's no way that things can get better

I was never so wrong
I thought we would go on forever
Always together
Now it's hard to believe you would walk out
And leave me crying
Feel like i'm dying

Dream maker, heart breaker
I would do anything you say
Dream maker, heart breaker
You could take everything away

I've never felt like i feel lonely tonight
Like a river so deep filled with sorrow
I won't be sleeping i won't turn out the light
I've got heartache enough for tomorrow
And i know i should learn
But wherever i turn you find me
Always remind me

Dream maker, heart breaker
I would do anything you say
Dream maker, heart breaker
You could take everything away

"I give to thee great gardens, with trees and vines in the temple of Atuma, I give to thee lands with olive trees in the city of On. I have furnished them with gardeners, and many men to make ready oil of Egypt for kindling the lamps of thy noble temple. I give to thee trees and wood, date palms, incense, and lotus, rushes, grasses, and flowers of every land, to set before thy fair face."
- Rameses III, 1155 BCE

I Dreamed A Dream lyrics

Play "I Dreamed A Dream"
on Amazon Music
There was a time when men were kind,
And their voices were soft,
And their words inviting.
There was a time when love was blind,
And the world was a song,
And the song was exciting.
There was a time when it all went wrong...

I dreamed a dream in time gone by,
When hope was high and life, worth living.
I dreamed that love would never die,
I dreamed that God would be forgiving.
Then I was young and unafraid,
And dreams were made and used and wasted.
There was no ransom to be paid,
No song unsung, no wine, untasted.

But the tigers come at night,
With their voices soft as thunder,
As they tear your hope apart,
And they turn your dream to shame.

He slept a summer by my side,
He filled my days with endless wonder...
He took my childhood in his stride,
But he was gone when autumn came!

And still I dream he'll come to me,
That we will live the years together,
But there are dreams that cannot be,
And there are storms we cannot weather!

I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living,
So different now from what it seemed...
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed...

Disturbed - A Reason to Fight
https://youtu.be/k6vv_9iH5ao



EXCLUSIVE: Disturbed Give Powerful Performance of "Hold On To Memories"
https://youtu.be/QAnqNxLjuAA


Listen, everyone
The time will come when all of us say goodbye
Feel that aching in your heart
Leaving you broken inside
But we're never really gone
As long as there's a memory in you mind

So now go do the best things in life
Take a bite of this world while you can
Make the most of the rest of your life
Make a ride of this world while you can

Take the ones you love
And hold them close because there is little time
And don't let it break your heart
I know it feels hopeless sometimes
But they're never really gone
As long as there's a memory in you mind

So now go do the best things in life
Take a bite of this world while you can
Make the most of the rest of your life
Make a ride of this world while you can

And hold on to memories
Hold on to every moment
To keep them alive
The world's greatest tragedy
Souls who are not remembered
Cannot survive

So now go do the best things in life
Bring the fight to this world while you can
Make the most of the rest of your life
Shine your light on this world while you can

And hold on to memories
Hold on to every moment
To keep them alive
The world's greatest tragedy
Souls who are not remembered
Cannot survive

And hold on to memories (Hold on)
Hold on to every moment
To keep them alive (Keep them alive)
The world's greatest tragedy (Hold on)
Souls who are not remembered
Cannot survive

Enya - Echoes In Rain
https://youtu.be/8DDHulO485k

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

Wait for the sun
Watching the sky
Black as a crow
Night passes by
Taking the stars
So far away
Everything flows
Here comes another new day

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

Into the wind
I throw the night
Silver and gold
Turn into light
I'm on the road
I know the way
Everything flows
Here comes another new day

Alleluia, alle-alle alleluia
Alleluia, alleluia
Alleluia, alle-alle alleluia
Alleluia, alleluia
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

Echoes in rain
Drifting in waves
Long journey home
Never too late
Black as a crow
Night comes again
Everything flows
Here comes another new day

Alleluia, alle-alle alleluia
Alleluia, alleluia
Alleluia, alle-alle alleluia
Alleluia, alleluia
Ah, ah,…

SCORPIONS - The best is yet to come
https://youtu.be/b8oXC8Tol7k

Across the desert plains
Where nothing dares to grow
I taught you how to sing
You taught me everything I know
And thought the night is young
And we don't know if we'll live to see the sun

The best is yet to come
I know, you know
That we've only just begun
Through the highs and lows
And how can I live without you
You're such a part of me
And you've always been the one
Keeping me forever young
And the best is yet to come

Na na na na
Don't look now, the best is yet to come
Na na na na
Take my hand, the best is yet to come

Thinking of the times
How we laughed and cried
I wouldn't change a thing
I couldn't even if I tried
Through the wind and rain
The spirit of our song remains the same

And the best is yet to come
I know, you know
That we've only just begun
Through the highs and lows
And how can I live without you
You're such a part of me
And you've always been the one
Keeping me forever young
And the best is yet to come

Na na na na
Don't look now, the best is yet to come
Na na na na
Take my hand, the best is yet to come

Oh can you feel it in the air
It's in your heart and everywhere
We got to keep that dream alive

We cross another road
And face another day
Soldiers never die
They only fade away
How can we grow old
When the soundtrack of our lives is rock and roll

And the best is yet to come
I know, you know
That we've only just begun
Through the highs and lows
And how can I live without you
You're such a part of me
And you've always been the one
Keeping me forever young
And the best is yet to come

Na na na na
Don't look now, the best is yet to come
Na na na na
Take my hand, the best is yet to come

Na na na na
Don't look now, the best is yet to come
Na na na na
Take my hand, the best is yet to come
