"Old Souls"

Old Souls (lyrics)

(FROM THE 20TH CENTURY FOX FILM "PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE")

Our love is an old love
It's older than all our years
I have seen in strange young eyes
Familiar tears

We're old souls in a new life baby
They gave us a new life
To live and learn
Some time to touch old friends
And still return

Our paths have crossed and parted
This love affair was started
Long, long ago
This love survives the ages
In its story lives are pages
Fill them up, may ours tum slow

Our love is a strong love, baby
We give it all
And still receive
And so with empty arms
We must still believe

All souls last forever
So we need never fear goodbye
A kiss when I must go
No tears, in time, we kiss hello

I say - its high time we stand up for the underdog.  "People who talk to themselves"!  They are NOT crazy, just sly foxes.  Okay, stop reading that like it was a Steve Martin SNL line.  Just stop it.  It ruins the sincerity of it all.

People who talk to themselves do so because its the only true moment in time when they can engage in intelligent conversation, and whats so crazy about that?  I ask you. NO! Don't answer..., thats a rhetorical question, it needs no answer.  You are quite feisty today arent you? I mean, because it seems I am calling you down at every corner.  Behave.

Ack!! Don't! Don't!  Just putting you in check before I get started and you detract my attention once more.   Smart people talk to themselves - and dumb people get jealous, having the talkers committed to state hospitals.  No more! No more I say!  Stand up for the people who talk to themselves - in fact I'm thinking about having a world benefit day complete with video and music recording.... "We aren't the stupid, we are the Smart".   Kinda catchy eh?

Uhm.., I'm sorry.  What are you people doing here so early for? I was still discussing plans with me.  Could you come back in about ten minutes? Thank you.

AHEM - as I was saying.., so Dave.. what do you think about this idea stretching exercise? the whole save the crazies idea?

You're asking me? Well, I gotta be honest Dave.  YOU ARE FREAKING, NUTS!  I don't know about you, but I'm leaving with those folks you just chased off.  They are way much more fun to be with.

 Lisa Norton , sings quite a few top notch songs, and really its hard to pick one to plaster on my walls. I opted for this one because I like the song, the way she sings it and the Oh So Cool Video presentation! YEAH! She so rawks! She's also one of my lady buddies.

 
Vote for me on Bix.com!

Don't forget to vote for her in the current contest! If any of you's mugs
are into karoake.., you might want to check into may latest "Singing Down The House" contest on my BIX page. You don't gave to be a quality
singer - just enter and have fun.  The winner of course gets
featured here on my fabulous blog.  And who wouldnt appreciate
that!  Its better than being in love! (almost).

Well its like this.., there was this and that .., then there was this other thing and like it totally blowed me away!  Well.., it didn't actually blow me away or I would be dead or something so I wasn't literally blowed away.

So anyway that, like, really happened!  I can tell by the expressions on your faces you are as horrified by the whole thing as I am.  But, like, its the truth and for real even!  Would I lie about a thing like that? I THINK NAWT!

And so.., just be careful out there because you never know when like, this or that will happen around or even to  you. It was like sooo freaking scary, maaaaan.  Like waaay so.  I'm sorry if, like the graphic nature of it all, like scared you or traumatized you in anyway, but really, like.., it had to be said.

So there I was sitting in 7th grade class in the 70s, then BAM! Its 2007 of the 21st Century, I'm an old geezer chasing kids out of the yard with my cane, calling them hippies and telling them to "git a job!".  Anyway - In keeping up with Abby - I'm posting my School Photo.  Hah! And some people say I never had any class.

before my long hair experience - scary or what!

And now.., remember that pic of the critter I told you I was going to post?  Well, you just got through looking at it.  But while I'm showing pictures.., here's one of a little feller what was crawling across the yard the other day.., he's just a wittle baby..., sittin' on me fly-swat.

No - I didn't kill the little darlin'..., I set him free.  Now had he been
in my bed or in the house period - he'd of been dead with no
remorse on my part, I can honestly reassure you.
