Saying Goodbye

I see your face, I see your tears I feel your heart, I feel your fears.... And then I turn, to hold you tight Into my arms, into the night ~ I brush your hair, you start to cry I say I know, you ask me why??? Why, the days they turn Blue skies they fade.... The lives you've known, that fade away They fade away, fade away, away ~ I touch your cheek to wipe your tears Caress your heart to calm your fears.... And then I turn to hold you tight Within my arms throughout the night ~ I kiss your cheek, you close your eyes I kiss your tears, you say goodbye The one you loved, another life The one you loved, a precious light * I hold you close, you ask me why ~ I hold you close; we say goodbye, goodbye.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ....“Saying Goodbye???” Note: Smile ~ “A Repo of `Love, Always & Forever,`” John!:) ~

If I stay will it mess with anothers direction to serve our Lord God Almighty, it has, so in love I say farewell, in hopes in heaven I shall walk hand in hand with dearest John, to each their own, I will not stay to confuse and distort; I have learned a valuable lesson in life and it means so much to me, farewell to you also.

so things didn't go as planned. I hope and pray for nothing but the blessings of our Lord, you did turn my heart around. I did not like men when we met. I hold no ill will towards you John. I hope in my absence you may forgive me from your heart for all the things I wrote of you. It was a time, a moment that has passed. I would hope as I thought the other day, I could leave from viewing your words with a clear conscience that you really did care a little but I can see that is not so now, but still I know its best I leave, and you asked me to, so I will.

sorry, not much of an elvis fan. maybe one of his cowboy movies. who can denigh how handsome he is with his gun belt and bandana. and neither am i a country music fan. i know all the names you mintioned, i just dont own any of their recordings. but i do share something with elvis. we come from the same place and both think of memphis as the capital of that area. and not long ago lived only blocks from his mansion and passed by his airplain everyday. i did enjoy that for a while. john

smile$$$ i hit the jack pot with this one. first it turned out ot be my mini sermon at the nursing home today. thanks i needed that. and as far as identifying whos who; i found you too. in Col. 2 btw 2+2 is 4 in four verses first 4, and 4+4 second 8. 8+8 third 16, 16+16= 32. but there is no 32nd verse. so lets transpose the numbers to fourth 23. now that fits you quite nicely. john
