When We Were Young, Adele/Song Share

https://binged.it/2B6NJWa

This song is great! I love it. We all think back to when we were young. When there is someone special in our past life that meant something, etc. I had family members I wish I had gain in my life, but that is not reality. For some we fail to appreciate what we had, all we can do is long for those times back.

Take a listen it is magic. Of course I am partial to Adele!




Atlantic Starr, If Your Heart Isn’t In It/ Song Share

 

Atlantic Starr – If your heart isn’t in it

Lyrics

It’s a fragile situation
It could fall apart at any time
And none would be the wiser
Except you and I

It seems that we stopped talkin’
Like we’re afraid to disagree
And after all we’ve been through
Can we still be that naive?

If your heart isn’t in it
Why can’t you tell me so?
If my heart wasn’t in it
I’d have gone long ago
If your heart isn’t in it
Why keep me hangin’ on?
Just tell me and I’ll be gone
From your life

You treat me like a stranger
As if I wasn’t there
Oh baby, I waited for a miracle
To make you show that you care

If your heart isn’t in it
Why can’t you tell me so?
If my heart wasn’t in it
I’d have gone long ago
If your heart isn’t in it
Why keep me hangin’ on?
Just tell me and I’ll be gone
From your life

If your heart isn’t in it
Why can’t you tell me so?
I can’t go through the motions
I have to know
If your heart isn’t in it
Why can’t you tell me so?
I can’t go to the limit
I have to know

If your heart
Ooh, can’t you tell me so?
I have to know
If your heart isn’t it
Why keep me hangin’ on?
Just tell me and I’ll be gone
Don’t keep me hangin’ on
For dear life

Let’s talk about this song.

First, this song is about someone who wanted to have another person be upfront with them about their feelings before they got in a relationship too deep.

Secondly, I just love this song, the music and the voices are perfect together.

This song is an older song but it is still great, to me.

What do you all think? Take a listen!

Cat’s in The Cradle /Song Share

 

Cat’s In The Cradle

Harry Chapin

A child arrived just the other day
He came to the world in the usual way
But there were planes to catch, and bills to pay
He learned to walk while I was away

And he was talkin’ ‘fore I knew it and as he grew
He said, I’m gonna be like you, Dad
You know I’m gonna be like you

And the cat’s in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man on the moon
When you comin’ home Dad?
I don’t know when but we’ll get together then
You know we’ll have a good time then

My son turned ten just the other day,
He said “Thanks for the ball, Dad, come on let’s play
Can you teach me to throw?”, I said
“Not today, I got a lot to do”, he said, “That’s okay”

And he walked away but his smile never dimmed
He said, “I’m gonna be like him, yeah
You know I’m gonna be like him”

And the cat’s in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man on the moon
When you comin’ home, Dad?
I don’t know when but we’ll get together then
You know we’ll have a good time then

He came from college just the other day
So much like a man, I just had to say
“Son I’m proud of you, can you sit for a while?”
He shook his head, and said with a smile

“What I’d really like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys
See ya later, can I have them please?”

And the cat’s in the cradle, and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man on the moon
When you comin’ home Son?
I don’t know when but we’ll get together then, Dad
You know we’ll have a good time then

Now I’ve retired, my son’s moved away
I called him up just the other day
I said, “I’d like to see you, if you don’t mind”
He said, “I’d love to, Dad, if I could find the time
My new job’s a hassle and the kids got the flu
But it’s nice talkin’ to you Dad, it’s sure nice talkin’ to you”

As I hung up the phone it occurred to me
He’d grown up just like me
My boy was just like me

And the cat’s in the cradle, and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man on the moon
When you comin’ home, Son?
I don’t know when but we’ll get together then Dad
You gonna have a good time then

You’ve Got A Friend/ Song Share

You’ve Got a Friend

“You’ve Got a Friend” is a 1971 song written by Carole King.

It was first recorded by King, and included in her album Tapestry.

Another well-known version is by James Taylor from his album Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon.

His was released as a single in 1971 reaching number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 4 on the UK Singles Chart.

The two versions were recorded simultaneously in 1971 with shared musicians. “You’ve Got a Friend” won Grammy Awards both for Taylor (Best Male Pop Vocal Performance) and King (Song of the Year).

Dozens of other artists have recorded the song over the years, including Dusty Springfield, Michael Jackson, Anne Murray and Donny Hathaway.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You%27ve_Got_a_Friend

I just love the version James Taylor sings! Of course I love almost anything James Taylor sings. His smooth voice is just so natural and he makes singing look so easy.

LYRICS ARE BELOW

When you’re down and troubled
And you need a helping hand
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I’ll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I’ll be there
You’ve got a friend

If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Keep you head together
And call my name out loud
Soon you’ll hear me knocking at you door

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I’ll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I’ll be there

Ain’t it good to know that you’ve got a friend
When people can be so cold
They’ll hurt you, and desert you
And take your soul if you let them

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I’ll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I’ll be there
You’ve got a friend
You’ve got a friend

Ain’t it good to know you’ve got a friend
Ain’t it good to know you’ve got a friend

Thanks for reading!!!

Song Share/ Split Enz – I Got You (1980)

Lyrics

I got you, and that’s all I want
I won’t forget, and that’s a whole lot
I don’t go out, now that you’re in
Sometimes we shout, that’s no problem

Chorus:
I don’t know why sometimes I get frightened
You can see my eyes and tell that I’m not lying

Look at you, you’re a pageant
You’re everything, that I’ve imagined
Something’s wrong, I feel uneasy
You show me, tell me you’re not teasing

Chorus

I don’t know why sometimes I get frightened
You can see my eyes and tell that you’re not mine

There’s no doubt, that when I’m with you
When I’m without, I stay in my room
Where do you go, but get no answers
You’re always out, it gets on my nerves

Chorus

I don’t know why sometimes I get frightened
You can see my eyes and tell that you’re not mine

Chorus

I don’t know why sometimes I get frightened
You can see my eyes and tell that you’re not mine


Obsessed a little? First thought I get when listening to this. Buddy if she don’t really want you then let her go! Haha. Personally if I saw that someone did not want me, by looking at them, I would be gone! Take a listen.


If something belongs to you, it is a possession. One cannot possess another individual only things. MwsR ❤

Song Share/Let It Be Me – Jerry Butler & Betty Everett – 1964.

Lyrics

I bless the day I found you
I want to stay around you
And so I beg you, let it be me

Don’t take this heaven from one
If you must cling to someone
Now and forever, let it be me

Each time we meet love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love what would life be

So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
And that you’ll always let it be me

Each time we meet love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love what would life be

So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
And that you’ll always, let it be me
