Some call it faith, some call it love.
Some call it guidance from above.
You are the reason we found ours,
So thank you stars.
Some people think it's far away,
Some know it's with them everyday.
You are the reason we found ours,
So thank you stars.
There are no winds that can blow it away on the air,
When they try to blow it away 's when you know it will always be there.
To some it's the strength to be apart,
To some it's a feeling in the heart.
And when you're out there on your own, it's the way back home.
There are no winds that can blow it away on the air,
When they try to blow it away 's when you know it will always be there.
Some call it faith, some call it love.
Some call it guidance from above.
You are the reason we found ours,
So thank you stars.
Thank you stars,
Thank you stars,
Thank you stars.

Hi Lorraine,
Good song lyrics. It reminds me of old Chinese poem below.
P.S. Take more rest and take care, my friend.
Cassia oars and orchid paddles
Beat the illusory moon,
Rowing against the flow of streaming light.
From a great distance my heart
Yearns for my beloved at one end of the sky.
"Do you know the water and moon? The one flows on, and yet never goes anywhere, and the other waxes and wanes, yet never diminishes or grows. If you look at them from the point of Change, then heaven and earth never stay the same for even the blink of an eye. If you look from the point of what is unchanging, then all things, and I, are inexhaustible, so what is there to envy? Between heaven and earth, each thing has its master, and if it were not mine, even if only a hair, I would not take it. Only the clear wind on the river, and the bright moon between the mountains: the ear receives one and creates sound, the eye meets the other and makes color; you can take these without prohibition, and use them without exhausting them. This is the infinite treasure of the Creator, and what you and I can share and rejoice in."
"Prose Poem on the Red Cliffs" by Su Shi (1037-1101)
Translated by Pauline Chen

Thank you Monty my sweet friend for your kind caring words. Bless you  I really enjoyed reading the poem monty and as I was reading it I could suddenly hear the tune moon river in my head lol...so I decided to look it up and especially the lyrics. Isn't it funny how one can hear a song over and over and yet never listened to the lyrics...well today I have finally listened to the lyrics and wow...what a beautiful song. I much prefer Andy Williams singing it. Thank you again Monty for sharing the beautiful poem Moon river, wider than a mile I'm crossing you in style some day Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker Wherever you're goin', i'm goin' your way Two drifters, off to see the world There's such a lot of world to see We're after the same rainbow's end, waitin' 'round the bend My huckleberry friend, moon river, and me (moon river, wider than a mile) (i'm crossin' you in style some day) Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker Wherever you're goin', i'm goin' your way Two drifters, off to see the world There's such a lot of world to see We're after that same rainbow's end, waitin' 'round the bend My huckleberry friend, moon river, and me |
