Where Do We Draw The Line



Where Do We Draw the Line
On your palm an endless wonder
Lines that speak the truth without a sound
In your eyes awaits the tireless hunger
Already looks for prey to run down

So why do we keep up this charade
How do we tell apart the time to leave from the time to wait

What does tomorrow want with me
What does it matter what I see
If it can't be my design
Tell me where do we draw the line

The dance of flames and shadows in the street
Make poetry nobody's ever heard
The weight of loneliness stands on your feet
The cage already there around the bird

So why don't we join the masquerade
Before it all falls apart before our love becomes insatiate

What does tomorrow want with me
What does it matter what I see
If I can't choose my own design
Tell me where do we draw the line

Where's the cooling wind
Where's the evergreen field
Where's my mother's open arms
Where's my father lionheart
S'like the sun's gone down
Sleeps in the hallowed ground now
With the autumn's browns leaves
With the one who never grieves

What does tomorrow want with me
What does it matter what I see
If we all walk behind the blind
Tell me where do we draw the line

Whatever tomorrow wants from me
At least I'm here, at least I'm free
Free to choose to see the signs
This is my line

Izzie, Poets of the Fall is a fantastic group. Love both those songs, gal. Did a bit of research and found they are from Finland. (be sure and check out Jethro Tull)

Inspired by Izzie's two songs, I found this lovely pictorial of Finland. edgar can watch and play his own music that he thinks will match it.

Then one that I believe that Texas man knows, so the will hear the melody in his head.

First, Finland.

Now, Poetry in Motion.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pop1rMUiXP0

Poetry in motion
See her gentle sway
A wave out on the ocean
Could never move that way

I love every movement
There's nothing I would change
She doesn't need improvement
She's much too nice to rearrange

Poetry in motion
All that I adore
No number-nine love potion
Could make me love her more

Oh
A-whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
A-whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
FADE
A-whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa

The only Punky I know spells it without the 'e'

I've gone down the list, reading all the lyrics. Some I know, most not. Will be back on line later today. Thanks to all who thought of me. Don't forget to listen to Van Dyke Parks' Song Cycle.

I was able to get this computer to open some videos. Not going to push my luck. Banderas' song was too good for that film. Listened to Jethro Tull.

I have heard Poetry in Motion dozens of times. It's a good song.

The Four Seasons of Finnland video is very good. This computer has good speakers once it works.

Thanks for the comments, edgar. The speakers in my little studio are great as well.

Today is Eddie Fisher's birthday, and he sings one of my favorite Irving Berlin songs. His voice is truly good.

and the lyrics, folks.

Remember the night
The night you said, "I love you"
Remember?

Remember you vowed
By all the stars above you
Remember?

Remember we found a lonely spot
And after I learned to care a lot

You promised that you'd forget me not
But you forgot
To remember

I don't remember Remember, but Eddy makes it memorable.
Now, Elvis (Kurt Russell)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_010vclV9s

Wow! I had no idea that Kurt Russell did Elvis. Blue Moon of Old Kentucky was great. I remember Kurt in Tombstone as Wyatt Earp, and in the movie Stargate among others. Remember, edgar?

Don't know this guy, but today is his birthday, folks.



Here's one by him, y'all.

Peter Cook & Dudley Moore - Goodbye-ee'

Now is the time to say goodbye.
(Goodbye)
Now is the time to yield a sigh.
(Yield it, yield it)
Now is the time to wend our way-eee
Until we meet again-eee
Some sunny day.

Goodbye, goodbye, we’re leaving you, skiddlydye.
Goodbye, we wish a fond goodbye, fa-ta-ta-ta-ta, fa-ta-ta-ta.
Goodbye, goodbye, we’re leaving you, skiddlydum.
Goodbye, we wish a fond goodbye, la-la-ta-ta-ta.
La dah da, lah la la etc.
[Repeat].Music

You know there comes a time in everyone’s life when they must say goodbye. That time is now, and so with tears in either eye we say goodbye, as people have said throughout the years. We leave this mortal coil on which we strut and fret our weary ways, as Shakespeare put it, God bless him. What a wonderful old chap Shakespeare was, bald but sexy.

Take that rhythm away with its wonderful melodies.
Oh, goodbye they say.

Goodbye, goodbye, we’re leaving you goodbye,
Goodbye, we wish you all …. a fond …goodbye..Music

Laters WA2K.

Bobby Hatfield, of The Righteous Brothers was a fantastic artist. I love several of the songs he and his partner did (for some reason, I can't recall the other Righteous Brother just now).

I believe Les Baxter had the first recording of Unchained Melody, in some movie. Here is Les with something else.

Wow! Didn't know that Les did that lovely Chopin classic, Texas. Thanks again for your comments.

Well, I see our Brit is ready for take off, and that was a funny song.

Two songs for my goodnight tonight.

First a funny one hoping edgar's machine will not "sound off" again.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3owoYQazL9o

And my telling song. The lyrics to this one are in my profile, buddy.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hK_PYQVNmmU&feature=related

Just in case, here are the lyrics to sound off.


Hib-hub, hib-hub, hib-hub, hib-hub
The heads are up
The chests are out
The arms are swinging
And cadence count
Sound off (sound off)
Sound off (sound off)
Cadence count

Enie, Meanie, Minie, Moe

Let's go back and count some more

Sound off (sound off)
Sound off (sound off)
Cadence count
1-2-3-4 (1-2, 3-4)

I had a good home, but I left (you're right)
I had a good home, but I left (you're right)
Jody was there, when I left (you're right)
Jody was there, when I left (you're right)

Sound off (1-2)
Sound off (3-4)
Cadence count
1-2-3-4 (1-2, 3-4)

I left gal away out west
I thought this army life was best
Now she's someone elses wife
And I'll be marchin' the rest of my life

Sound off (1-2)
Sound off (3-4)
1-2, 3-4

1-2-3-4, (1-2, 3-4)

The captain rides in a jeep
The sargent rides in a truck
The general rides in a limosine
But we're just out of luck

Sound off
Sound off
Cadence count
1-2-3-4 (1-2, 3-4)

Hib-hub, hib-hub, hib-hub, hib-hub
The heads are up
The chests are out
The arms are swinging
And cadence count
Sound off (sound off)

Goodnight all,

From Letty with love and a smile

I like that one by Vaughn Monroe. In fact I like most of his songs.

Every Time We Say Good-bye is a nice smooth one, letty.

Well, good night, folks.

Goodnight, Texas. I cannot believe there is/was a jazz version of The Mickey Mouse Club. It was great. Thanks again for the comments on what we play here.



From Seals and Croft for the early morning.

The hummingbird is the only bird that can fly backwards.

Good morning, radio folk. Good seals and croft, letty. Nash and young must have been on vacation.

Good morning, edgar. I had no idea that Dorothy did that song. I vaguely recall her as Carmen Jones. I thought she died from a blood clot as a result of a broken bone. I may have her confused with someone else.

My word, I need to do more research on Nash and Young I guess. I've been doing so on the origin of The Riddle Song. Love it, and here it is, folks.

(hope someone let's us know about Barry the Brit)

Glad your sound is back, Texas.
