Hi iu's blog: "moments"

Im Just trying to understand why bad things happen to great people. As many of you know my mother has had MS for a few years now, and is not in the best of health. Well this week my father was diagnosed with cancer, and must start radiation and chemo next week. This leaves me wondering how life can be so unfair sometimes. My parents are the greatest people, and have always been there for me, and have helped me in so many ways. I love them both so much. I can only pray and hope for the best for both of them. My parents are great people who would do anything for anybody and they do not deserve all of this. I don't understand how there are such evil people in this world, that are perfectly healthy. Not that i wish any illness on anyone, but it's just not fair. I don't know how to feel about anything. My only positive outlook is that I can take this time to tell them anything i want too, and too make sure they know I love them both and appreciate everything they have done for me and the rest of my family. Not too many people get that chance. Thanks to all my family and friends who are there for me, the smallest thing from just asking me how i am really makes a differance.

I said hello i think i'm broken And though i was only jokin' It took me by surprise when you agreed I was tryin' to be clever For the life of me i never Would have guessed how far the simple truth would lead You knew all my lines You knew all my tricks You knew how to heal that pain No medicine can fix And i bless the day i met you And i thank god that he let you Lay beside me for a moment that lives on And the good news is i'm better For the time we spent together And the bad news is you're gone Lookin' back it's still surprisin' I was sinking you were rising With a look you caught me in mid-air Now i know god has his reasons But sometimes it's hard to see them When i awake and find that you're not there You found hope in hopeless Your made crazy sane You became the missing link That helped me break my chains And i bless the day i met you And i thank god that he let you Lay beside me for a moment that lives on And the good news is i'm better For the time we spent together And the bad news is you're gone The bad news is you're gone r.i.p john seeman scotty moore reuben loughlin miss you

Tonight we crossed the borderline into a world that’s new And we don’t know what we might find waiting for me and you Your wanting me to lead the way as you hold on to my hand Well this is all so new to me but i’ll do the best i can I’m a stranger here myself and i don’t know my way around As far as i’m concerned this is all uncharted ground I’m feeling something new that i’ve never felt I’ve never been in love i’m a stranger here myself I’m glad it’s you that’s here with me in this strange new place And you feel the same way too i see it all in your face It’s hard for us to catch our breath as wonder fills our eyes The longer that we’re here the more this feels like paradise I’m a stranger here myself and i don’t know my way around As far as i’m concerned this is all uncharted ground I’m feeling something new that i’ve never felt I’ve never been in love i’m a stranger here myself I’ve never been in love i’m a stranger here myself

Can i have this dance my you're looking pretty Is there something wrong did he leave you hurting I don't mean to pry but that tear in your eye gave you away If you don't want to talk we'll keep it quiet But sometimes a heartache hurts worse if you hide it I think there's a chance one slow dance might ease the pain You have the right to remain silent Anything that you say as i hold you against me Will forever be a secret between us two I've been wanting you but you didn't know it And now that he's gone at last i can show it If your heart is tired for the rest of your life Lay your love on me So many times my eyes have held you Tonight please give my arms that chance If you don't feel the need for conversation We'll just let our hearts talk while we dance You have the right to remain silent Anything that you say as i hold you against me Will forever be a secret between us two I've been wanting you but you didn't know it And now that he's gone at last i can show it If your heart is tired for the rest of your life Lay your love on me If your heart is tired for the rest of your life Lay your love on me

He owns a big estate Just south of Savannah And a high rise hotel in downtown Atlanta And half the state of Georgia to his name She'd be set for life In his colonial manor He'd lay the world at her feet on a silver platter But all I had to offer her was the moon She took the moon over Georgia She'd rather have a million stars in the sky Than a gold mine She took the moon over Georgia When it came down to his world or mine She took the moon over Georgia A little country house In need of expansion It's a far cry from his south Georgia mansion But we've got our own paradise Shadow dancin' 'til dawn With a full moon shinin' And those occasional clouds all have a silver linin' There really must be somethin' 'bout that old yellow light She took the moon over Georgia

I don't pick up the mail I don't pick up the phone I don't answer the door I'd just as soon be alone I don't keep this place up I just keep the lights down I don't live in these rooms I just rattle around I'm just a ghost in this house I'm just a shadow upon these walls As quietly as a mouse I haunt these halls I'm just a whisper of smoke I'm all that's left of two hearts on fire That once burned out of control It took my body and soul I'm just a ghost in this house I don't care if it rains I don't care if it's clear I don't mind stayin in There's another ghost here She sits down in your chair And she shines with your light And she lays down her head On your pillow at night I'm just a ghost in this house I'm just a shell of the man I was A living proof of the damage heartbreak does I'm just a whisper of smoke I'm all that's left of two hearts on fire That once burned out of control It took my body, my soul I'm just a ghost in this house I'm just a ghost in this house

I was coming to the end of a long long walk When a man crawled out of a cardboard box Under the E. Street Bridge Followed me on to it I went out halfway across With that homeless shadow tagging along So I dug for some change Wouldn't need it anyway He took it lookin' just a bit ashamed He said, You know I haven't always been this way I've had my moments, days in the sun Moments I was second to none Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do Like that plane ride coming home from the war That summer my son was born And memories like a coat so warm A cold wind can't get through Lookin' at me now you might not know it But I've had my moments I stood there tryin' to find my nerve Wondering if a single soul on Earth Would care at all Miss me when I'm gone That old man just kept hanging around Lookin' at me, lookin' down I think he recognized That look in my eyes Standing with him there I felt ashamed I said, You know I haven't always felt this way I've had my moments, days in the sun Moments I was second to none Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do Like the day I walked away from the wine For a woman who became my wife And a love that, when it was right, Could always see me through Lookin' at me now you might not know it But I've had my moments I know somewhere 'round a trashcan fire tonight That old man tells his story one more time He says I've had my moments, days in the sun Moments I was second to none Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do Like that cool night on the E. Street Bridge When a young man almost ended it I was right there, wasn't scared a bit And I helped to pull him through Lookin' at me now you might not know it Oh, lookin' at me now you might not know it But I've had my moments
