The Civil Wars Lyrics

"Dust To Dust"

It's not your eyes
It's not what you say
It's not your laughter
That gives you away
You're just lonely
You've been lonely too long

All your acting, your thin disguise
All your perfectly delivered lines
They don't fool me
You've been lonely too long

Let me in the walls
You've built around
We can light a match
And burn them down
Let me hold your hand
And dance 'round and 'round the flames
In front of us
Dust to dust

You've held your head up
You've fought the fight
You bear the scars
You've done your time
Listen to me
You've been lonely too long

Let me in the walls
You've built around
We can light a match
And burn them down
Let me hold your hand
And dance 'round and 'round the flames
In front of us
Dust to dust

You're like a mirror, reflecting me
Takes one to know one, so take it from me
You've been lonely
You've been lonely too long
We've been lonely
We've been lonely too long




My dear dn family, I just recently viewed on Netflix this wonderful Turkish Series (Drama - Romance) titled
Winter Sun - Kis Gunesi ...... & it won my heart !!

I found this enchanting clip on you-tube with this
enticing music to accompany it & thought it
would be fun to share with you, dear friends.

You rather know me by now & know that I am a
romantic at heart and love when love touches
our life despite the obstacles......

God bless Love You All To The Moon & Back.
Carmen, Picasso & Pasha........................!

Taken from the Turkish series Winter Sun now on NetFlix,
II loved this story so much it helped me to be thankful
at this moment in time for all those who have gone before
me and know that my life has been enriched by there
presence and it is only really until we meet again.

Love to all you my dear dn family of friends and to those
you have loved and have had to say goodbye.....

Borak, "Is that Mete? You look so happy."
Sede, "Yes, we were the happiest couple on earth."

Borak, "Where was this ? Seda , "Sile, we would often go there, when he was alive that is."

Borak to Seda,
"I know it hurts but you should count yourself lucky for having
loved someone so much."
We're all going to die someday. It's much better to love someone and lose them, than never finding someone to love.

We all have someone we can't forget, we all do.
I know it feels unbearable sometimes but what if we had
never had them at all ? Imagine what life would be like.
It would be so hard.

The love we feel for them gives our lives meaning, no
matter how much it hurts.I know it all feels too brief but
the love we feel lives on.

What we shared and felt in that short time gives life its
meaning. We'll see them in heaven. In the meantime we should be grateful."

Beauty is not all there is of poetry. It must contain the truth. It is not simply an oak, rude and grand, neither is it simply a vine. It is both. Around the oak of truth runs the vine of beauty. Robert Green Ingersoll



Our DN Family of Friends, Happy Monday , wishing blessings
and joy for the whole week, God bless, dreams come true.

Hello & Hugs DN Family of Friends of Mine, Greeting from
The Sunshine State of California.......

I have a story to share , I just spoke with my sister-in-law
Elisa on Wednesday. She shared that she recently had
been to our Hollywood Bowl for the summer season.
The renowned Gustavo Dudamel conducted Giselle,
such a beautiful ballet. Two most talented dancers
of the new generation graced the stage & stole
the night with multiple standing Ovations.

Sergie Polunin of Ukrain & Natalia of Russia. Elisa raved, I immediately researched also falling in love with these two beautiful artists. So happy to share the treasure given to
me by Elisa with you....

God bless wishing you & your loved ones a most
lovely & beautiful Sunday....Thank you for your
friendship , it brings meaning me & kitties.
Always Carmen, Picasso & Pasha..........

The ballet is about a peasant girl named Giselle, who dies of a broken heart after discovering her lover is betrothed to another. The Wilis, a group of supernatural women who dance men to death, summon Giselle from her grave. They target her lover for death, but Giselle's great love frees him from their grasp.
