WA2K Radio is now on the air

Sung by The Who - didn't remember that one at all, but have got it on a cd.

For Walter from Mrs. Walter as he leaves to go to the windy city:

(Auf wiedersehen, auf wiedersehen)


(We'll meet again, sweetheart)
This lovely day has flown away
The time has come to part

We'll kiss again, like this again
Don't let the teardrops start
With love that's true, I'll wait for you
Auf wiedersehen, sweetheart.

Hey, buddy. I learned to spell it finally.

It looks like rain…


Rain Lyrics
Madonna

I feel the rain, it's coming

Chorus:

Rain, feel it on my finger tips
Hear it on my window pane
Your love's coming down like
Rain, wash away my sorrow
Take away my pain
Your love's coming down like rain

When your lips are burning mine
And you take the time to tell me how you feel
When you listen to my words
And I know you've heard, I know it's real
Rain is what this thunder brings
For the first time I can hear my heart sing
Call me a fool but I know I'm not
I'm gonna stand out here on the mountain top
Till I feel your

(chorus)

When you looked into my eyes
And you said goodbye could you see my tears
When I turned the other way
Did you hear me say
I'd wait for all the dark clouds bursting in a perfect sky
You promised me when you said goodbye
That you'd return when the storm was done
And now I'll wait for the light, I'll wait for the sun
Till I feel your

(chorus)

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say, never go away

Waiting is the hardest thing
[It's strange I feel like I've known you before]
I tell myself that if I believe in you
[And I want to understand you]
In the dream of you
[More and more]
With all my heart and all my soul
[When I'm with you]
That by sheer force of will
[I feel like a magical child]
I will raise you from the ground
[Everything strange]
And without a sound you'll appear
[Everything wild]
And surrender to me, to love

Rain is what the thunder brings
For the first time I can hear my heart sing
Call me a fool but I know I'm not
I'm gonna stand out here on the mountain top
Till I feel your

Rain, I feel it, it's coming
Your love's coming down like
(repeat)

(chorus)

Rain, I feel it, it's coming
Your love's coming down like
(repeat)

Rain

You know, Try. I just came back from my favorite one stop shop place, and the East Indian man that owns the store was looking at the ocean and talking about what his grandmother used to tell him about earth, wind, and fire. I didn't quite understand what the ultimate meaning of his obviously passionate story was, but he and his wife have become two of my closest friends. With your song about rain, I thought of earth, wind, fire, and water. So for Mr. Patel and his wife:


Earth Wind & Fire

Fan The Fire

Maurice white, donald whitehead & wade flemons

ohh it's a shame
It's a shame it's a shame
The flame of love is about to die
Somebody fan the fire
The flame of love is about to die
Somebody fan the fire
Love is dyin' today
Somebody fan the fire
The flame of love is dyin' I say
We gonna fan the fire, come on along
Little children starving in a foreign land,
Talk about it brother
Man afraid to shake his brother's hand
(fan the fire, fan the fire)
Woman in trouble callin' but nobody cares
(fan the fire, fan the fire)
People denied the rights that are truly
Theirs
(it's a shame)

*i believe I believe
(I believe I believe)
I believe I believe
(I believe I believe)
I believe the flame of love is about to die
(fan the fire, fan the fire)
I believe the flame of love is about to die

The flame of love is about to die
Somebody fan the fire
Flame of love is about to die
We're gonna fan the fire, come on along.
Violence striking down great men of peace
Poverty in the homes and crime in the streets
(fan the fire, fan the fire)
Kind-hearted people turnin' to hate
(fan the fire, fan the fire)
Man's about to destroy the human race
(it's a shame)

I think, listeners, that I saw that there was a horrible fire raging in New York City that would equal the destruction of 9/11.

you need men with hoses


Cast your mind back ten years
To the girl who's next to me in school
If I put me hand upon her leg
She hit me with a rule

*Though tomorrow won't be long
You're gonna have to play it cool
You get fascinated by her
She could set the place on fire

**Run and get the fire brigade
Get the fire brigade
See the buildings start to really burn
Get the fire brigade
Get the fire brigade
If you jump you've got to wait your turn

Friends all seem to laugh
I fear I'm apt to make a compromise
Try to reassure myself
My head must need some exercise
Half past ten in the morning
She just took me by surprise
True she set the place on fire
You get fascinated by her

(**repeat)

The lights across the street throw a rainbow
I'd love you all to meet her
I'll be there, I'll be there

Notice that my eyes have been
A misty place since Saturday
Brings a feeling we might lead
The fire engines anyway

(*repeat)

John, I am so glad to see that you are all right and singing. Perfect sequence, London.

Remembering an oldie, now, and following through folks:

Bill Munro:

There's a call that rings from the throne it springs
To those now gone astray
Saying "Come ye men from your load of sin
There at the alter lay"
Many do not heed that the chains of greed
that their conscience never tire
Be assured my friend if you still offend
He will set your fields on fire

Now if you don't from sin retire
He will set your fields on fire
You have heard Jesus' call
And in death your soul must fall
Now my friend if you desire
You may join the heavenly choir
And rejoice with him free from every sin
When He sets this world on fire

You have heard his voice seen His soul rejoice
That trusted in his grace
You have blushed with sin as He knocked within
But still you hide your face
From the blessed Lord and His own true word
But still you say retire
Leave the downward path kindle not His wrath
Or He'll set your fields on fire.

However, listeners. I think the singers said, "set your fields on far. " <smile>

You like Earth Wind and Fire? If you do I should invite you over for some of my wife's cooking.

edgar, do you mean that when it's hot, it's hot?

Red hot chili peppers:

Can I get your hand to write on
Just a piece of lead to bite on
What am I to fly my kite on
Do you want to flash your light on
Take a look it's on display - for you
Coming down no not today

Did you meet your fortune teller
Get it off with no propellor
Do it up it's always stellar
What a way to finally smell her
Pick it up it's not to strong - for you
Take a piece and pass it on

Fly away on my zephyr
I feel it more then ever
And in this perfect weather
We'll find a place together
Fly on my wing

Riddlin on liberator
Find a way to be a skater
Rev it up to levitator
Super mainly aviator
Take a look it's on display - for you
Coming down no not today

Fly away on my zephyr
I feel it more then ever
And in this perfect weather
We'll find a place together
In the water where the scent of my emotion
All the world will pass me by
Fly away on my zephyr
We'll find a place together

Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa - do you
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa - won't you
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Fly away on my zephyr
I feel it more then ever
And in this perfect weather
We'll find a place together

In the water where the scent of my emotion
All the world will pass me by
Fly away on my zephyr
We're gonna live forever
Forever

Every single day I got a heartache coming my way
I don't wanna say goodbye baby
But look at the tears in my eyes
I don't wanna say goodbye mama
But look at the way you made me cry
Every way that's nice you show
You've got a heart that's made of ice
And I know

Fire and water
Must have made you there daughter
You've got what it takes
To make a poor man's heart break
A poor man's heart break

Lover you turn me on
But quick as a flash your love is gone
Baby I'm gonna leave you now
But I'm gonna try and make you grieve somehow

Fire and water
Must have made you there daughter
You've got what it takes
To make a poor man's heart break
A poor man's heart break
And my heart is breaking...

I don't wanna say goodbye baby
But look at the tears you made me cry
Every way that's nice you show
You've got a heart that's made of ice
And I know

Fire and water
Must have made you there daughter
You've got what it takes
To make a poor man's heart break
Fire fire and water
Must have made you there daughter
You've got what it takes
To make a poor man's heart break

Well, folks, time to take off the dancing shoes.



As the stars opened their eyes and sequenced the sky
she rose from her lair and donned her disguise.
She took to the air, unperceived to the world,
yet all knew her touch and her kiss and her hold.

They entered her world and they called out her name
And she went to them, held them and soothed their pain.
She took them to places where green was the sky
and the flowers had faces and people could fly.

She recalled their memories and entwined them with hers,
she soared with them, warmed them and played in their past.
But sometimes He comes with his hatchet and spurs
and they slip from her fingers and fall from her grasp.

He lures them with candy that's studded with nails
then invades them with tendrils of terror and pain.
His faces are many, his names come in shoals
Chimera, Bogeyman, Serpent and Ghoul.

Then consciousness stirs and reality comes
and flickering memories slip slowly away.
She and her nemesis slowly dissolve
and wait in their lairs for the passing of day.

And throughout the day their names are recalled
She's remembered with yearning, He with a scream
and when the shadows of night unfold, they are called,
His name is Nightmare and her name is Dream.

Lovely. Sweet dreams!

Very nice Letty

Good morning, WA2K listeners and contributors.

Thanks to Raggedy for that lovely depiction, and Rex for the observation.

Often, folks, I sit and think about the influence that mythology has had on modern life styles. Within us all, is the secret longing for the magic that removes the necessity of choice from mortals. Therein lies the crux, I believe. Morning observation for consideration.

Fitzgerald:

Come, fill the Cup, and in the Fire of Spring
The Winter Garment of Repentance fling:
The Bird of Time has but a little way
To fly--and Lo! the Bird is on the Wing.



German:

An jedem Tag nehm' ich mir vor aufs neue,
Daß ich das Trinken laße und bereue;
Doch nun voll Rosenduft erschienen ist
Der holde Lenz-bereu' ich meine Reue.

Good morning all. Waiting in the Post Office this was the ring tone of a phone.

Miss You Like Crazy
by Natalie Cole

Even though it's been so long
My love for you keeps going strong

I remember the things
That we used to do
A kiss in the rain
Til the sun shine through

I tried to deny it
But I'm still in love with you

I miss you like crazy
I miss you like crazy
Ever since you went away
Every hour of every day

I miss you like crazy
I miss you like crazy
No matter what I say or do
There's just no getting over you

I can see the love
Shining in your eyes
And that comes as
Such a sweet surprise

If seeing's believing
It's worth the wait
So hold me and tell me
It's not too late

We're so good together
We're starting forever now

And I miss you like crazy
I miss you like crazy
Ever since you went away
Every hour of every day

I miss you like crazy
I miss you, baby
Love like ours will never end
Just touch me
And we're there again

Just one night and
We'll have the magic feeling
Like we used to do
Hold on tight and
Whatever comes our way
We're gonna make it through

If seeing's believing
It's worth the wait
So hold me and tell me
It's not too late

We're so good together
We're starting forever now

And I miss you like crazy
I miss you like crazy
No matter what I say or do
There's just no getting over you

And I miss you, I missed you
All the chances that you gave me
And a feeling gets this strong
And then the real thing come along
And I miss you

I miss you like crazy, baby
Only your sweet love can save me

I miss you like crazy
A love like ours will never end
Just touch me
And we're there again

Miss you like crazy
I miss you like crazy.....

(I Ain't) Missing You
John Waite

Every time I think of you, I always catch my breath
And I'm still standing here, and you're miles away
And I'm wonderin' why you left
And there's a storm that's raging through my frozen heart tonight

I hear your name in certain circles, and it always makes me smile
I spend my time thinkin' about you, and it's almost driving me wild
And there's a heart that's breaking down this long distance line tonight

I ain't missing you at all since you've been gone away
I ain't missing you, no matter what I might say

There's a message in the wire, and I'm sending you this signal tonight
You don't know how desperate I've become
And it looks like I'm losing this fight
In your world I have no meaning, though I'm trying hard to understand
And it's my heart that's breaking down this long distance line tonight

I ain't missing you at all
Since you've been gone away
I ain't missing you,
No matter what my friends say

And there's a message that I'm sending out,
Like a telegraph to your soul
And if I can't bridge this distance,
Stop this heartbreak Overload

I ain't missing you,
I ain't missing you,
I can lie to Myself

And there's a storm
That's raging through my frozen heart
Tonight

Every time I think of you, I always catch my breath
And I'm still standing here, and you're miles away
And I'm wonderin' why you left
And there's a storm that's raging through my frozen heart Tonight

I hear your name in certain circles, and it always makes me smile
I spend my time thinkin' about you, and it's almost driving me wild
And there's a heart that's breaking down this long distance line tonight

I ain't missing you at all since you've been gone away
I ain't missing you, no matter what I might say

There's a message in the wire, and I'm sending you this signal tonight
You don't know how desperate I've become
And it looks like I'm losing this fight
In your world I have no meaning, though I'm trying hard to understand
And it's my heart that's breaking down this long distance lLine tonight

I ain't missing you at all
Since you've been gone away
I ain't missing you,
No matter what my friends say

And there's a message that I'm sending out,
Like a telegraph to your soul
And if I can't bridge this distance,
Stop this heartbreak Overload

I ain't missing you,
I ain't missing you,
I can lie to Myself

And there's a storm
That's raging through my frozen heart
Tonight

Well, listeners, there's our Try with a "missing you" song and shari with an antithesis. Love it.

Thinking of Natalie Cole right now because I saw somewhere that she would be making an appearance in one of the TV shows. I think it was Medium, but I am not certain.

I still have Natalie's cd where she sings Unforgettable along with her dad. Lovely indeed.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Unforgettable, that's what you are.
Unforgettable, though near or far.
Like a song of love that clings to me,
How the thought of you does things to me,
Never before has someone been more.

Unforgettable, in every way.
And forever more (and forever more)
That's how you'll stay (that's how you'll stay)

That's why darling it's incredible,
That someone so unforgettable,
Thinks that I am unforgettable too.

No never before, has someone been more

Unforgettable (unforgettable) in every way (in every way)
And forever more (and forever more)
That's how you'll stay (that's how you'll stay)

That's why darling, its incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am, unforgettable too.

One of the few songs, folks, that changes key at an unexpected place

This one's not exactly one of the all time classics (at least not according to anyone I know) but it's certainly one of my personal favorites.

Meatloaf
Paradise by the Dashboard Light

I. Paradise

Boy:
I remember every little thing
As if it happened only yesterday
Parking by the lake
And there was not another car in sight
And I never had a girl
Looking any better than you did
And all the kids at school
They were wishing they were me that night


And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon! Hold on tight!
C'mon! Hold on tight!


Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light


Girl:
Ain't no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed
Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely dressed


Ain't no doubt about it
Baby got to go and shout it
Ain't no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed


Boy:
Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely dressed


Baby doncha hear my heart
You got it drowning out the radio
I've been waiting so long
For you to come along and have some fun


And I gotta let ya know
No you're never gonna regret it
So open up your eyes I got a big surprise
It'll feel all right
Well I wanna make your motor run


And now our bodies are oh so close and tight
It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon! Hold on tight!
C'mon! Hold on tight!


Though it's cold and lonley in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light
Paradise by the dashboard light


You got to do what you can
And let Mother Nature do the rest
Ain't no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed
Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely--


We're gonna go all the way tonight
We're gonna go allt he way
An tonight's the night...


Radio Broadcast:
Ok, here we go, we got a real pressure cooker
going here, two down, nobody on, no score,
bottom of the ninth, there's the wind-up and
there it is, a line shot up the middle, look
at him go. This boy can really fly!
He's rounding first and really turning it on
now, he's not letting up at all, he's gonna
try for second; the ball is bobbled out in center,
and here comes the throw, and what a throw!
He's gonna slide in head first, here he comes, he's out!
No, wait, safe--safe at second base, this kid really
makes things happen out there.
Batter steps up to the plate, here's the pitch--
he's going, and what a jump he's got, he's trying
for third, here's the throw, it's in the dirt--
safe at third! Holy cow, stolen base!
He's taking a pretty big lead out there, almost
daring him to try and pick him off. The pitcher
glance over, winds up, and it's bunted, bunted
down the third base line, the suicide squeeze in on!
Here he comes, squeeze play, it's gonna be close,
here's the throw, there's the play at the plate,
holy cow, I think he's gonna make it!


II. Let Me Sleep On It


Girl:
Stop right there!
I gotta know right now!
Before we go any further--!


Do you love me?
Will you love me forever?
Do you need me?
Will you never leave me?
Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life?
Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?
Do you love me!?
Will you love me forever!?
Do you need me!?
Will you never leave me!?
Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life!?
Will you take me away and will you make me your wife!?
I gotta know right now
Before we go any further
Do you love me!!!?
Will you love me forever!!!?


Boy:
Let me sleep on it
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
And I'll give you my answer in the morning


Let me sleep on it
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
And I'll give you my answer in the morning


Let me sleep on it
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
And I'll give you my answer in the morning


Girl:
I gotta know right now!
Do you love me?
Will you love me forever?
Do you need me?
Will you never leave me?
Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life?
Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?
I gotta know right now!
Before we go any further
Do you love me?
And will you love me forever?


Boy:

Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
And I'll give you my answer in the morning
Let me sleep on it!!!


Girl:
Will you love me forever?

Boy:
Let me sleep on it!!!

Girl:
Will you love me forever!!!


III. Praying for the End of Time


Boy:
I couldn't take it any longer
Lord I was crazed
And when the feeling came upon me
Like a tidal wave
I started swearing to my god and on my mother's grave
That I would love you to the end of time
I swore that I would love you to the end of time!


So now I'm praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
I don't think that I can really survive
I'll never break my promise or forget my vow
But God only knows what I can do right now
I'm praying for the end of time
It's all that I can do
Praying for the end of time, so I can end my time with you!!!


Boy:
It was long ago and it was far away
and it was so much better than it is today


Girl:
It never felt so good
It never felt so right
And we were glowing like
A metal on the edge of a knife

I saw a great video by Nickelback yesterday this song was attached.

NICKELBACK LYRICS

"Savin' Me"

Prison gates won't open up for me
On these hands and knees I'm crawlin'
Oh, I reach for you
Well I'm terrified of these four walls
These iron bars can't hold my soul in
All I need is you
Come please I'm callin'
And oh I scream for you
Hurry I'm fallin', I'm fallin'

[Chorus:]
Show me what it's like
To be the last one standing
And teach me wrong from right
And I'll show you what I can be
Say it for me
Say it to me
And I'll leave this life behind me
Say it if it's worth saving me

Heaven's gates won't open up for me
With these broken wings I'm fallin'
And all I see is you
These city walls ain't got no love for me
I'm on the ledge of the eighteenth story
And oh I scream for you
Come please I'm callin'
And all I need from you
Hurry I'm fallin', I'm fallin'

[Chorus]

Hurry I'm fallin'

All I need is you
Come please I'm callin'
And oh, I scream for you
Hurry I'm fallin', I'm fallin'

[Chorus]

Hurry I'm fallin'
