"I woke up early this morning around 4am With the moon shining bright as headlights on the interstate I pulled the covers over my head and tried to catch some sleep But thoughts of us kept keeping me awake Ever since you found yourself in someone else's arms I've been tryin' my best to get along But that's OK There's nothing left to say, but Take your records, take your freedom Take your memories I don't need'em Take your space and take your reasons But you'll think of me And take your cat and leave my sweater 'Cause we have nothing left to weather In fact I'll feel a whole lot better But you'll think of me, you'll think of me I went out driving trying to clear my head I tried to sweep out all the ruins that my emotions left I guess I'm feeling just a little tired of this And all the baggage that seems to still exist It seems the only blessing I have left to my name Is not knowing what we could have been What we should have been So Take your records, take your freedom Take your memories I don't need'em Take your space and take your reasons But you'll think of me And take your cat and leave my sweater 'Cause we have nothing left to weather In fact I'll feel a whole lot better But you'll think of me Someday I'm gonna run across your mind Don't worry, I'll be fine I'm gonna be alright While you're sleeping with your pride Wishing I could hold you tight I'll be over you And on with my life So take your records, take your freedom Take your memories I don't need'em And take your cat and leave my sweater 'Cause we have nothing left to weather In fact I'll feel a whole lot better But you'll think of me So take your records, take your freedom Take your memories I don't need'em Take your space and all your reasons But you'll think of me And take your cat and leave my sweater 'Cause we got nothing left to weather In fact I'll feel a whole lot better But you'll think of me, you'll think of me, yeah And you're gonna think of me Oh someday baby, someday."

~Kieth Urban~ (Golden Road album, 2002)

Jorg, I just wanted to thank you for mailing those Paris pics to me. Those memories will never be forgotten and will always be a part of me.

I'm a leaf on the river
Fallen from the tall oak tree
Drifting down this moving stream
Wherever this life carries me
I'm a tumbleweed
In the desert wind
Just tumblin' while
The sun's shinin'
I have no boundaries
Call me a gypsy

Chorus
I'm restless
Just ramblin'
What do you do, where do you go
When nowhere feels like home
I'm restless

Am I an angel fallen from heaven's grace
Oh, it feels like that some days and I can't find my place
I guess God just made some of us
To live and die by highway dust
Guess I just have to trust
On the days I'm crawlin' T
his is my callin'

Repeat Chorus

Oh, to hold somebody close that cares
Oh, to finally find some roots somewhere
I know someday I'll find that it's out there
But until then I'll just keep movin'
What do you do, where do you go
When nowhere feels like home
I'm restless

Ooooooo, Ooooooo, Ooooooo

Everybody's tellin all, baring their souls,
just to go on the Rikki Lake Show
Shoo-bi-doop-doop-why
Last night I turned the TV on,
you were booed off stage, singin your famous love song
Why
And tell me who makes the rules

Shoulda been born on the Milky Way
Wanna belong to the world today
Oh, Life's a bitch and then ya die
Shoulda been born on the Milky Way
Can't believe what I heard today
Oh yeah, Life's a bitch and then ya die

Shoo-bi-doop-bow
I mean, while I got my magazine tellin me,
sellin me lies on how I could be the perfect ten
Shoo-bi-doop-doop-why
And my boyfriend left just the other day,
he's all messed up, is he straight or is he gay
Shoo-bi-doop-doop-why
So tell me who makes the rules

Shoulda been born on the Milky Way
Wanna belong to the world today
Oh, Life's a bitch and then ya die
Shoulda been born on the Milky Way
Can't believe what I heard today
Oh yeah, Life's a bitch and then ya die

So if I fall
If I fall...oh...all

Shoulda been born on the Milky Way
Wanna belong to the world today
Oh, Life's a bitch and then ya die
Shoulda been born on the Milky Way
Can't believe what I heard today
Oh yeah, Life's a bitch and then ya die

Shoulda been born on the Milky Way
Wanna belong to the world today
Oh, Life's a bitch and then ya die
Shoulda been born on the Milky Way
Can't believe what I heard today
Oh yeah, Life's a bitch and then ya die

Shoulda been born on the Milky Way
Wanna belong to the world today
Oh, Life's a bitch and then ya die
Shoulda been born on the Milky Way
Can't believe what I heard today
Oh yeah, Life's a bitch and then ya die

After the events of today, finding these lyrics are just, WOW. JtS, if you are reading this, you may not want to. Its completely up to you. I was amazed by this:

Standing at the edge of this cliff
Gravity being what it is
I'm afraid that I might stumble
'Cause I've never been this high
I'm so carried away by this place
And the simple beauty of your face
When the walls start to crumble
And I'm helpless to fight

Chorus
'Cause you can't ask the sun not to shine
And no one's ever found a way to stop time
Oh baby it's unstoppable
I can't resist at all
I would never try to slow down the wind
Baby it just has to be what it is
And asking me not to love you
Is like asking Niagara not to fall
I can't worry my heart with what if
Maybe I should just give in
And wrap myself around you
And let you take me down
Take me down

Back when I was young
Couldn't wait to grow up
Get away and get out on my own
And looking back now
Ain't it funny how
I've been trying to get back home, yeah

When my low self esteem
Needs a man loving me
And I find me a perfect catch
Then I see my friends
Having wild weekends
Then I don't wanna get quite so attached
Just as soon as I get what I want
I get unsatisfied
Good is good but could be better

I keep looking, I keep looking for
I keep looking for something more
I always wonder what's on the other side
Of the number two door
I keep looking
Looking for something more

Well, the straight haired girls
They all want curls
And the brunettes wanna be blonde
It's your typical thing
You got ying you want yang
It just goes on and on
They say, hey, it's only human
To never be satisfied
Well I guess that I'm as human as the next one

Oh, I keep looking
I keep looking for
I keep looking for something more
I always wonder what's on the other side
Of the number two door
Yeah, I keep looking
Looking for something more

Just as soon as I get what I want
I get unsatisfied
Hey, good is good but could be better

I keep looking
I keep looking for
I keep looking for something more
I always wonder what's on the other side
Of the number two door
I keep looking
Looking for something more
Oh, looking for something more

I thought that I would continue soemthing that I had started and list some lyrics to some really great songs.
When I can I'll post a "song of the day." Enjoy.

Let's get crazy and go for a ride
It's quarter past five, we'll go anywhere but here
Ol' Rand McNally we'll leave behind
Trust me, we'll be just fine
We can unwind
No doubt, no lie, bye bye, baby let's drive

Na na na, na na na, na na na naaaaaa
Let your hair out, kick your feet up
Don't slow down, can't get enough
'Cause if you really wanna know, go on and let's go
Baby you and me and the windshield.....singing
Na na na, na na na, na na na naaaaaa

We can play 99 bottles of beer on the wall
Damn, it don't matter at all, 'cause I'm with you
We can drive all day, enjoy the ride
Pull off when we get tired
Feels good, all right, on the hood baby you and me tonight
Sleep tight

Marcel Chagnon

If I were to walk a hundred miles
If I were a stranger from another land
What would you say, what would you do
Would you lend me your hand?

Though I try to make you smile
At times I bring you no harmony
From where I stand, my point of view
I just want you to be happy

I won't hold you down
I won't hold you down
I will let you go, I won't pull you back
I think you know me better than that
I won't hold you down

I know I'm away most of the time
And I'm sorry for the price you've paid
If you must go, I'll understand
Please believe me when I say

How you feel, and the road you choose
I hope that you succeed
But I thank you for the time we shared
And I'm sorry that you have to leave.

~Marcel Chagnon duet with Jessica Andrews

At the request of JtS I am here to make a formal goodbye to the /. communitity.

Good Luck to each and everyone of you, and take care of the shark please. Always remember that sharks do bite.
