ROD STEWART Song Lyrics

We'll Be Together Again
(From the album "IT HAD TO BE YOU... THE GREAT AMERICAN SONGBOOK")

No tears
No fears
Remember there's always tomorrow
So what if we have to part
We'll be together again

Your kiss
Your smile
Are memories I'll treasure forever
So try thinking with your heart
We'll be together again

Times when I know you'll be lonesome
Times when I know you'll be sad
Don't let temptation surround you
Don't let the blues make you bad

Some day
Some way
We both have a lifetime before us
For parting is never goodbye
We'll be together again.

Times when I know you'll be lonesome
Times when I know you'll be sad
Don't let temptation surround you
Don't let the blues make you bad

Some day
Some way
We both have a lifetime before us
For parting is not goodbye
We'll be together again.

Garrison Keillor
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Born August 7, 1942
Anoka, Minnesota

Garrison Keillor (born Gary Edward Keillor on August 7, 1942) is an American author, humorist, columnist, musician, satirist, and radio personality.

Keillor is best known as founder and host of the American Public Media show A Prairie Home Companion (also known as Garrison Keillor's Radio Show on BBC 7 and in Ireland). Keillor's trademark storyline is the weekly News from Lake Wobegon, a monologue about a fictional town (based on Anoka, Minnesota, Garrison's hometown or possibly Freeport, Minnesota, near the center of the state where Keillor lived for a short period of time), "where all the women are strong, the men are good looking, and the children are above average."

Keillor has also written many articles for The New Yorker, The Atlantic Monthly, and Salon.com. Keillor is the host of The Writer's Almanac, a five-minute program which is broadcast daily on some public radio stations in the United States.

Biography

Keillor was born in Anoka, Minnesota, and raised in a family belonging to the Plymouth Brethren, a fundamentalist Christian denomination he has since left. He is six feet, four inches (1.93 m) tall and is of Norwegian and Scottish ancestry. Keillor is a member of the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party. He currently is an Episcopalian[1], but has been a Lutheran; he often uses his religious roots in his material. He graduated from the University of Minnesota with a bachelor's degree in English in 1966. While there, he began his broadcasting career on the student-operated radio station, known today as Radio K.

Keillor is married to violinist Jenny Lind Nilsson; they have a daughter, Maia. His first wife was Mary Guntzel, with whom he had a son, Jason. His second wife was Ulla Skaerved.

Mr. Blue

He also authored an advice column on Salon.com, titled "Mr. Blue". Following a heart operation, he resigned on September 4, 2001 in an article entitled "Every dog has his day":

Illness offers the chance to think long thoughts about the future (praying that we yet have one, dear God), and so I have, and so this is the last column of Mr. Blue, under my authorship, for Salon. Over the years, Mr. Blue's strongest advice has come down on the side of freedom in our personal lives, freedom from crushing obligation and overwork and family expectations and the freedom to walk our own walk and be who we are. And some of the best letters have been addressed to younger readers trapped in jobs like steel suits, advising them to bust loose and go off and have an adventure. Some of the advisees have written back to inform Mr. Blue that the advice was taken and that the adventure changed their lives. This was gratifying. So now I am simply taking my own advice. Cut back on obligations: Promote a certain elegant looseness in life. Simple as that. Winter and spring, I almost capsized from work, and in the summer I had a week in St. Mary's Hospital to sit and think, and that's the result. Every dog has his day and I've had mine and given whatever advice was mine to give (and a little more). It was exhilarating to get the chance to be useful, which is always an issue for a writer (What good does fiction do?), and Mr. Blue was a way to be useful. Nothing human is beneath a writer's attention; the basic questions about how to attract a lover and what to do with one once you get one and how to deal with disappointment in marriage are the stuff that fiction is made from, so why not try to speak directly? And so I did. And now it's time to move on.

In June 2005, Keillor started a syndicated newspaper column, which Salon.com runs.

Keillor in popular culture

Garrison Keillor is the voiceover artist for Honda UK's "the Power of Dreams" campaign. The campaign's most memorable advert is the 2003 Honda Accord commercial entitled "Cog". The two minute television ad features a complex system of car parts that react with each other to create a chain reaction similar to a Rube Goldberg or Heath Robinson cartoon. The commercial ends with Keillor asking, "Isn't it nice when things just work?" [2]

Since then, Keillor has voiced the tagline for most if not all Honda UK adverts, and even sang the voiceover in the 2004 Honda Diesel commercial entitled "Grrr". His most recent advert was a reworking of an existing commercial with digitally added England flags to tie in with the World Cup. Keillor's tagline was "Come on England, keep the dream alive".

His laid back style is often the subject of parody. The Simpsons parodies Keillor in an episode where Homer is shown watching a Keillor-like monologist on television, and upon hitting the set, exclaiming "Stupid TV! Be more funny!", which has become one of The Simpsons' oft-quoted catchphrases. [3] In practice, Keillor rarely reads his monologue directly from the script, but the monotonous intonation and style of dress caricature Keillor successfully. One Boston radio critic likens Keillor and his "down comforter voice" to "a hypnotist intoning, 'You are getting sleepy now'", while noting that Keillor does play to listeners' intelligence. [4]

In the UK, his commercials have been parodied especially his song (for Honda): "Hate something, Change something, Make something better" (clip available below).

Keillor was featured in the Streaming Venue Songs of the band They Might Be Giants, supposedly inspiring John Flansburgh and John Linnell with "Midwestern Pledge Drive Funk" songs he had written, like "When Doves Cry," "Powdermilk Biscuit Rain," and "Factory's A-Closin' in the Quaint Fictional Lutheran Town."

Billie Burke
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mary William Ethelbert Appleton Burke (August 7, 1884 - May 14, 1970) was an Oscar-nominated American actress primarily known to modern audiences for her role as Glinda, the Good Witch of the North in the musical The Wizard of Oz.

Early life

Known as Billie Burke, she toured the U.S. and Europe with a circus because her father, Billy Burke, was employed with them as a singing clown. One could say that Billie was bred for show business. Her family ultimately settled in London where she was fortunate to see plays in London's historic West End.

She wanted to be a stage actress. In 1903, she began acting on stage, making her debut in London, and eventually returning to America to become the toast of Broadway as a musical comedy star. She was praised by The New York Times for her charm and her brightness.

Career

Thanks to her representation by famed producer Charles Frohman, Burke went on to play leads on Broadway in Mrs. Dot, Suzanne, The Runaway, The "Mind-the-Paint" Girl, and The Land of Promise from 1910 to 1913, along with a supporting role in the revival of Sir Arthur Wing Pinero's The Amazons. There she caught the eye of producer Florenz Ziegfeld, marrying him in 1914. In 1916, they had one daughter, Patricia Ziegfeld.


Billie Burke as a young girl.She was quickly signed for the movies, making her film debut in the title role of Peggy (1916). She continued to appear on the stage, and sometimes she starred on the screen. She loved the stage more than movie-business, not only because it was her first love, but at least she had speaking parts. But when the family's savings were wiped out in the Crash of 1929, she had no choice but to return to the screen.

In 1932 Billie Burke made her come-back to Hollywood, starred as Margaret Fairlfield in A Bill of Divorcement, directed by George Cukor, better known as Katharine Hepburn's first movie appearance (she played Hepburn's mother). Despite the death of Florenz Ziegfeld during the film's production, Billie Burke resumed filming shortly after his funeral.

In 1936, MGM filmed a biopic of her deceased husband (The Great Ziegfeld), a film that won Oscars for Best Picture and Best Actress (Luise Rainer as Ziegfeld's first wife, Anna Held). Burke was herself a character in the film, but she was not cast as herself. Instead, prominent actress Myrna Loy essayed the role of Burke, an irony that amused Hollywood at the time.

In 1933, Burke was cast as Mrs. Millicent Jordan, a scatterbrained high-society woman hosting a dinner party in the witty comedy Dinner at Eight, directed by George Cukor, co-starring with Lionel Barrymore, Marie Dressler, John Barrymore, Jean Harlow and Wallace Beery. The movie was a great success, and once again Billie Burke was back on top. She subsequently starred in many comedies and musicals, especially as a ditzy, fluffy and feather-brained upper-class matron, a popular casting decision due to her delightful comedic talent and helium-filled voice.

In 1937 she started the Topper series of films, about a man haunted by two socialite ghosts (played by Cary Grant and Constance Bennett), in which she played the tremulous and daffy Clara Topper. Her performance as Emily Kilbourne in Merrily We Live (1938) resulted in her only Oscar nomination.

In 1939 (at age 55) she was chosen to play Glinda, the Good Witch of the North in the Oscar-winning seminal musical The Wizard of Oz, directed by Victor Fleming, with Judy Garland. As Glinda, the Good Witch, Burke combined pathos, humor and her inimitable dizziness into a character known as an icon of goodness, strength and wisdom.

As recently as 2005, Singer Patterns offered children the chance to dress up as Glinda for Halloween, selling a dress pattern copying the peach chiffon and tulle extravaganza Burke wore in the film.

Another successful series followed with Father of the Bride (1950) and Father's Little Dividend (1951), both directed by Vincente Minnelli and starring Spencer Tracy, Joan Bennett and Elizabeth Taylor.

On CBS radio, The Billie Burke Show was heard on Saturday mornings from April 3, 1943 to September 21, 1946. Sponsored by Listerine, this situation comedy was initially titled Fashions in Rations during its first year. Portraying herself as a featherbrained Good Samaritan who lived "in the little white house on Sunnyview Lane," she always offered a helping hand to those in her neighborhood. She worked often in early TV, appearing in the short-lived sitcom Doc Corkle (1952).

At the age of 60, Billie Burke tried to make a comeback on the New York stage. She starred in two short-lived productions: This Rock and Mrs. January and Mr. Ex. Although Burke got good reviews, the plays did not. She appeared in several plays in California as well, although her mind became clouded, and she had trouble remembering lines. In the late 1950s, her failing memory led to her retirement from the show business, although her explanation for that was, "Acting just wasn't any fun anymore."


The memorial statue at Billie Burke's grave in Kensico CemeteryHer last screen appearance was in Sergeant Rutledge, a Western directed by John Ford in 1960. She wrote two autobiographies, With a Feather on My Nose in 1949, and With Powder on My Nose in 1959.

Billie Burke died in Los Angeles, California of natural causes at the age of 85 in 1970 and was interred at Kensico Cemetery, Valhalla, New York, survived by her daughter, Patricia, four grandchildren and nine great grandchildren. For many years, her framed photo was displayed above the exit staircase at New York's Ziegfeld Theater, but it curiously vanished after renovations to the Ziegfeld Theater during the 1990s.

She is well known for the quote "Age is something that doesn't matter, unless you are a cheese."

B. J. Thomas
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

B. J. (Billy Joe) Thomas (born August 7, 1942 in Hugo, Oklahoma) grew up around Houston, Texas, and is a country singer. After a brief period with The Triumphs, Thomas began a solo career with a hit cover of "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" (Hank Williams) in 1966, but (despite some follow up chart singles) was unable to achieve massive mainstream success until 1969's "Hooked on a Feeling" and "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head" (Burt Bacharach and Hal David).

"Raindrops" became the first #1 hit of the 1970s peaking during January of the new decade.

By the 1970s, Thomas had switched to Paramount Records and released "(Hey Won't You Play) Another Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song", his second #1 hit. His string of hits continued, peaking in 1984 with "Two Car Garage", "Whatever Happened to Old Fashioned Love" and "New Looks from an Old Lover" (see 1984 in music).

In the 1990s and 2000s, though his name as a star in the mainstream cooled, Thomas has continued to tour and record to a small but loyal fan base, and he has also found some new fans in contemporary Christian music.

B.J. Thomas has also authored two books and starred in the movie "Jory".

Charlize Theron
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Born: 7 August 1975
Benoni, South Africa

Charlize Theron (born August 7, 1975) is an Academy Award-winning Afrikaner actress and former fashion model, who was born in South Africa.

Biography

Early life

Theron was born in Benoni, South Africa. Her father, Charles Theron, was a construction company owner of French Huguenot, descent; her mother, Gerda, is of German descent and took over her husband's business after his death. Theron's first language is Afrikaans, She is also fluent in Englsh and speaks some Xhosa. (In the United States, both in her films and while being interviewed, etc., Theron speaks with a typical American accent and style of speech, leading most Americans to assume she is American.)

"Theron" is a French surname pronounced in Afrikaans as "Tronn," although she has said that she prefers the pronunciation "Thrown."[1] The pronunciation commonly used in the United States is as spelled: THER-on.

Theron grew up as the only child on her parents' farm near Johannesburg (Benoni) and was sent to a boarding school at the age of thirteen. At fifteen, Theron witnessed the death of her father, an abusive alcoholic; her mother shot him in self-defense when he attacked her. No charges were pressed.

Career

Theron in Sweet NovemberAt the age of sixteen, Theron traveled to Milan, Italy, on a one-year modeling contract, after winning a local competition. Her contract ended while she was in New York City, and she decided to remain there, attending the Joffrey Ballet School, where she trained as a ballet dancer. A knee injury ended this career path at the age of 18.

Unable to dance, she bought a ticket to Los Angeles. After eight months in the city, she was cast in her first film part, a non-speaking role in the direct-to-video film Children of the Corn III. She followed this with larger roles in widely released Hollywood films, and her career skyrocketed in the late 1990s, with box office successes like The Devil's Advocate, The Cider House Rules, and Mighty Joe Young.

The May 1999 issue of Playboy published nude photos of Theron, taken during the early years of her modeling career. Claiming they had been "for private use," Theron ended up suing photographer Guido Argentini.

After appearing in a few notable films, Theron starred as serial killer Aileen Wuornos in the film Monster (2003). Film critic Roger Ebert called it "one of the greatest performances in the history of the cinema" [2]), for which Theron won the Best Actress Oscar at the 76th Academy Awards in February 2004, as well as the SAG Award and the Golden Globe Award. She is the first South African to win an Oscar for Best Actress.


Theron in Head in the CloudsHaving signed a deal with John Galliano in 2004, Theron replaced Estonian model Tiiu Kuik in the J'ADORE advertisements by Christian Dior; she is the current spokeswoman for Dior perfume. On September 30, 2005, she received her own bronze star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In the same year, she starred in the financially unsuccessful science fiction thriller Æon Flux [3] and was given positive reviews, as well as a Best Actress Golden Globe nomination, for her lead performance in the drama North Country.Ms.magazine honored her for this performance as well with a feature article in its Fall 2005 issue. She had also been nominated for an Oscar as a lead actress for the role, although she did not win; this was her second nomination.

In 2005, Theron also portrayed Rita, Michael Bluth's (Jason Bateman) love interest on the third season of FOX's critically acclaimed sitcom, Arrested Development.

Personal life

Theron dated the lead singer of Third Eye Blind, Stephan Jenkins, from January 1998 to July 2001. Jenkins broke up with her after failing to take her requests of marriage seriously.[4] Theron now resides in Los Angeles with her long-time boyfriend, Stuart Townsend, with whom she starred in the 2004 film Head in the Clouds, as well as in the 2002 film Trapped; she has said that they will not marry until same-sex couples are able to have their marriages recognized. In October 2005, her mother, Gerda, was married in California. The media thought that Charlize was the one getting married (to Townsend) and the paparazzi got as close as it could for the photos.

While filming Æon Flux in Berlin, Germany, Theron had surgery on a herniated cervical disc in her neck, the result of an injury incurred on the set during a stunt.

In May 2006, Maxim magazine named Theron #25 in its annual Hot 100 issue.

Theron is also involved in women's rights organizations [5]. She has tried to apply for a German passport because of her mother's German ancestry, but was turned down because she did not have any family members currently residing there.[6]

In 2006, Theron won GLAAD's Vanguard Award at the GLAAD Media Awards for increasing "visibility and understanding in the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community."

Theron is a supporter of animal rights and active member of PETA. She recently appeared in a PETA ad for their anti-fur campaign [7]

OASIS Lyrics


I thought love was only true in fairy tales,
Meant for someone else but not for me,
Love was out to get me, (Baddabudumbadum)
That's the way it seems, (Baddabudumbadum)
Dissapointment Haunted all my dreams,

(Chorus)

And then I saw her face,
Now I'm a believer,
Not a trace,
Of doubt in ma' mind,
I'm in love, Oh! I'm a believer,
I couldn't leave her if I tried,

(Verse 2)

I thought love was more or less a given thing,
Seems the more you give,
the less I got,
Whats the use in trying, (Baddabudumbadum)
All you get is pain, (Baddabudumbadum)
When I needed sunshine I got rain,

(Chorus)

Huston has a problem, listeners, but not our Try. <smile>



Many nights we prayed
With no proof anyone could hear
In our hearts a hope for a song
We barely understood
Now we are not afraid
Although we know theres much to fear
We were moving mountains
Long before we knew we could, whoa, yes
There can be miracles
When you believe
Though hope is frail
Its hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve
When you believe somehow you will
You will when you believe
[Mmmmmmmmmyeah]
Mmmyeah
In this time of fear
When prayer so often proves in vain
Hope seems like the summer bird
Too swiftly flown away
Yet now Im standing here
My hearts so full, I cant explain
Seeking faith and speakin words
I never thought Id say
There can be miracles
When you believe (When you believe)
Though hope is frail
Its hard to kill (Mmm)
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (You can achieve)
When you believe somehow you will
You will when you believe
[Hey]
[Ooh]
They don't always happen when you ask
And its easy to give in to your fears
But when you're blinded by your pain
Can't see the way, get through the rain
A small but still, resilient voice
Says hope is very near, oh [Oh]
There can be miracles (Miracles)
When you believe (Boy, when you believe, yeah) [Though hope is frail]
Though hope is frail [Its hard]
Its hard to kill (Hard to kill, oh, yeah)
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (You can achieve, oh)
When you believe somehow you will (Somehow, somehow, somehow)
Somehow you will (I know, I know, know)
You will when you believe [When you]
(Ohoh)
[You will when you]
(You will when you believe)
[Oohoohooh]
[Oh...oh]

Daydream Believer
Monkees Lyrics

Oh, I could hide neath the wings
Of the bluebird as she sings.
The six oclock alarm would never ring.
Whoops its ringing and I rise,
Wipe the sleep out of my eyes.
My shavin razors cold and it stings.

Cheer up, sleepy jean.
Oh, what can it mean.
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen.

You once thought of me
As a white knight on a steed.
Now you know how happy I can be.
Oh, and our good times starts and end
Without dollar one to spend.
But how much, baby, do we really need.

Cheer up, sleepy jean.
Oh, what can it mean.
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen.
Cheer up, sleepy jean.
Oh, what can it mean.
To a daydream believer
And a homecoming queen.

Cheer up, sleepy jean.
Oh, what can it mean.

She was a day tripper, a one way ticket yea
It took me so long to find out, and I found out

She's a big teaser, she took me half the way there

Tried to please her, she only played one night stands
Tried to please her, she only played one night stands now

She was a day tripper, a Sunday driver yea
Took me so long to find out, and I found out

Four of Two
They might Be Giants

Underneath a big clock at the corner of Fifth Avenue and 22nd Street
I stood and waited for a girl I knew at the spot where we agreed to meet.
It was four minutes of two.

At four of two I stood waiting for the girl.
I was four minutes early for the date we had planned.
I was planning to say I was in love with her
Just as soon as she showed for a two o'clock date,
And the clock said four of two.

At four of two I was staring into space.
She was not yet late according to the clock.
I was feeling nervous so I kept looking up
At the clock sticking out of the side of the building,
And it still said four of two.

At four of two I began to feel tired,
And I rubbed my eyes and again I checked the time.
It seemed as if the sky was growing dark...
But I felt reassured when I looked at the clock,
And it still said four of two.

I lay my head down on the sidewalk
So in case she were coming I would have a better view.
But no one was there so I stretched out
And closed my eyes for a second or two.
It was four minutes of two.

At once I awoke to a futuristic world.
There were flying cars and gigantic metal bugs.
I'd grown a beard - it was long and white,
But I knew that the girl would be coming very soon,
For though everything had changed there was still that clock,
And it still said four of two.

Welcome back, Canada. Wow! That sounds like a time machine song. Love that group, incidentally. (you feeling ok?)

I was surprised to find a list of songs today that were tops for the past 100 years, folks. In a few minutes, I shall return to name a few.

feeling much better, don't know if the stone is gone or not, but no pain and continuing with the herbal remedies

the tmbg song was not so much a time travel song as it was a stopped clock song

here's a tune the who might want to consider adding to there repetoire, the "hope i die before i get old" thing is wearing a little thin at their age

I Hope That I Get Old Before I Die
They Might Be Giants

Sometimes I feel like being wispy
And once in a while I feel like being dry
But we're doomed and we're drowned by this feeling we surround
So I hope that I get old before I die

Ohhhhh
It's a long, long rope they use to hang you soon I hope
And I wonder why this hasn't happened
Why why why
And I think about the dirt that I'll be wearing for a shirt
And I hope that I get old before I die

Clear off the kitchen table darling
For on the kitchen table I must lie
I'm just tired for my wife just served the banquet of my life
And I hope that I get old before I die

Ohhhhh
It's a long, long rope they use to hang you soon I hope
And I wonder why this hasn't happened
Why why why
And I think about the dirt that I'll be wearing for a shirt
And I hope that I get old before I die

Ohhhhh
It's a long, long rope they use to hang you soon I hope
And I wonder why this hasn't happened
Why why why
And I think about the dirt that I'll be wearing for a shirt
And I hope that I get old before I die

Glad to hear you are feeling better, honey. That is pronounced 'erbal, you know, silent "h" Neat song, Canada. Here's one to match:

Won't you take me
Won't you take me to the edge of night and make me
Won't you make me walk into the light
And there'll be no eyes
No eyes that see such beauty would lose their sight
And there'll be no lies
No lies that you could tell me to make things right

Cos I gave all my money to people and things
And the price I'm still paying for the **** that it brings
Doesn't fill me with hope for the songs that you sing
Tonight, this is your life
Angel child

When you find out
When you find out who you are you know you'll be free
To see your own ability
But there'll be no eyes
No eyes that see such beauty could lose their sight
And there'll be no lies
No lies that you could tell me to make things right

Cos I gave all my money to people and things
And the price I'm still paying for the **** that it brings
Doesn't fill me with hope for the songs that you sing

Sounds like a fallen angel, Try. <smile>

Here's another from my list, listeners, that seems to be the inverse of our Try's

You're an Angel to me.

Johnny Angel, how I love him.
He's got something I can't resist,
but he doesn't even know that I exist.

Johnny Angel, how I want him.
How I tingle when he passes by.
Every time he says "Hello" my heart begins to fly.

I remember how I get carried away.
I dream of him and me, and how it's gonna be.

Other fellas call me up for a date,
but I just sit and wait, I'd rather concentrate ...

... on Johnny Angel.
'Cause I love him.
And I pray that someday he'll love me.
And together we will see how lovely heaven will be.

I much prefer "Angel Eyes" because that song brings back wonderful memories.

love this tune, and play it often here

usually dedicate it to the southern curmudgeon (the one with the porsche)

Return of the Grievous Angel
Gram Parsons

Won't you scratch my itch sweet Annie Rich
And welcome me back to town
Come out on your porch or I'll step into your parlor
And I'll show you how it all went down

Out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy angels
And a good saloon in every single town

Oh, and I remember something you once told me
And I'll be damned if it did not come true
Twenty thousand roads I went down, down, down
And they all lead me straight back home to you

`Cause I headed West to grow up with the country
Across those prairies with the waves of grain
And I saw my devil,
and I saw my deep blue sea
And I thought about a calico bonnet from
Cheyenne to Tennessee

We flew straight across that river bridge,
last night a half past two
The switchman wave his lantern goodbye
and so long as we went rolling through
Billboards and truckstops pass by the grievous angel
And now I know just what I have to do

And the man on the radio won't leave me alone
He wants to take my money for something
that I've never been shown

And I saw my devil,
and I saw my deep blue sea
And I thought about a calico bonnet from
Cheyenne to Tennessee

The news I could bring I met up with the king
On his head an amphetamine crown
He talked about unbuckling that old bible belt
And lighted out for some desert town

Out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy angels
And a good saloon in every single town

Oh, but I remembered something you once told me
And I'll be damned if it did not come true
Twenty thousand roads I went down, down, down
And they all lead me straight back home to you

Twenty thousand roads I went down, down, down
And they all lead me straight back home to you
