Rainbows are special, Because they are never seen, Excepting for when, We look past the dark clouds, And see that the sunshine was there all along. Rainbows are special, Because my mother loved them so Rainbows are special, Because they have come to represent, The promise of the Universe, That what has been created, Shall not be uncreated, Rainbows are special, Because they sing, To our lovely lady, Like Annie Lenox... 'Why'?.. How much more grievous are the consequences of anger than the causes of it. -Marcus Aurelius |

Bless you, I remember sending you that when I was trying to find a way to let you know I understood your pain..thank you for the return compliment. HUSG WHY Annie Lennox How many times do I have to try to tell you That I'm sorry for the things I've done But when I start to try to tell you That's when you have to tell me Hey, this kind of trouble's only just begun I tell myself too many times Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words That keep on falling from your mouth Falling from your mouth Falling from your mouth Tell me... Why Why I may be mad I may be blind I may be viciously unkind But I can still read what you're thinking And I've heard it said too many times That you'd be better off Besides... Why can't you see this boat is sinking Let's go down to the water's edge And we can cast away those doubts Some things are better left unsaid But they still turn me inside out Turning inside out turning inside out Tell me... Why Tell me... Why This is the book I never read These are the words I never said This is the path I'll never tread These are the dreams I'll dream instead This is the joy that's seldom spread These are the tears... The tears we shed This is the fear This is the dread These are the contents of my head And these are the years that we have spent And this is what they represent And this is how I feel Do you know how I feel? 'Cause I don't think you know how I feel I don't think you know what I feel I don't think you know what I feel You don't know what I feel Yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream... |

A beautiful tribute to a beautiful lady whose heart is bigger than one could imagine ... ... Bless you Hawke ... Plaisir d'amour ne dure qu'un moment, Chagrin d'amour dure toute la vie. |
