Forever Young

WRITTEN BY: BOB DYLAN


May God bless and keep you always

May your wishes all come true
May you always do for others
And let others do for you
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung
May you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young
May you stay forever young

May you grow up to be righteous
May you grow up to be true
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you
May you always be courageous
Stand upright and be strong
May you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young
May you stay forever young

May your hands always be busy
May your feet always be swift
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift
May your heart always be joyful
May your song always be sung
May you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young
May you stay forever young

You think this is just another day in your life?  It's not just another day.  It's the one day that is given to you today.  It's given to you.  It's a gift.  It's the only gift that you have right now, and the only appropriate response is gratefulness.  If you do nothing else but to cultivate that response to the great gift that this day is, if you learn to respond as if it were the first day in your life and the very last day, then you will have spent this day very well.
   -- Louis Schwartzberg, filmmaker

Breath and life, and the opportunity to try.  If you have nothing more, you always have that.
   -- Alicia Keys, musician/songwriter

"No One", by Alicia Keys

I just want you close
Where you can stay forever
You can be sure
That it will only get better

You and me together through the days and nights
I don't worry 'cause everything's gonna be alright
People keep talking, they can say what they like
But all I know is everything's gonna be alright

No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feelin'
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you
You, you
Can get in the way of what I feel for you

When the rain is pouring down
And my heart is hurting
You will always be around
This I know for certain

You and me together through the days and nights
I don't worry 'cause everything's gonna be alright
People keep talking, they can say what they like
But all I know is everything's gonna be alright


No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feelin'
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you
You, you
Can get in the way of what I feel

I know some people search the world
To find something like what we have
I know people will try, try to divide something so real
So till the end of time I'm telling you

There ain't no one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feelin'
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you

Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh (oh) oh (oh) oh (oh) oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh (oh) oh (oh) oh (oh) oh

No no no oh oh

Hear Kathy sing her beautiful song....click below.

Love Chooses You
Love comes unbidden, can't be forbidden 
It takes you and shakes you right down to your shoes 
It knows heartache and trial but accepts no denial 
You can't choose who you love, love chooses you
In the wink of an eye love looses an arrow 
We control it no more than the flight of the sparrow 
The swell of the tide or the light of the moon 
You can't choose who you love, love chooses you
Tell me now if I'm wrong 
Are you feelin' the same 
Are your feet on the ground 
Are you callin' my name 
Do you lie awake nights 
Please say you do 
'Cause you can't choose who you love 
Love chooses you
Love cuts like a torch to a heart behind steel 
And though you may hide it, love knows how you feel 
And though you may trespass on the laws of the land 
Your heart has to follow when love takes your hand
And it seems we're two people within the same circle 
It's drawn tighter and tighter till you're all that I see 
I'm full and I'm empty and you're pouring through me 
Like a warm rain fallin' through the leaves on a tree
Tell me now if I'm wrong 
Are you feelin' the same 
Are your feet on the ground 
Are you callin' my name 
Do you lie awake nights 
Please say you do 
'Cause you can't choose who you love 
Love chooses you
No you can't choose who you love 
Love chooses you
