My Favourite Songs

I saw you across the room You were with my best friend Dancing to a slow song -Harvest Moon You held her tightly in your arms Then planted a passionate kiss Oh Its My Party and i will cry if I want to Cry if I want to and I did I was deeply hurt and shocked If You Could Read My Mind You would know my hurtful thoughts Oh my heart aches so badly So your friend came up to me He spoke calmly softly He called me Blue Angel Said he would never leave me Feelings he had for me was strongBlue Bayyou Strong feelings for me He said "Together we would go to the BlueBayou where the sailboats go a float int Blue Bayou

My Mom used to sing "Harvest Moon" while doing housework. Gotta love "If You Could Read My Mind," Darlene. You chose your songs well, though I barely remember "It's My Party." "Blue Bayou" by Ronstadt was beautiful! Very nicely done. Wishing you success in the contest! Hugs, Carolyn
