:heart: What's love?:heart:

Love is...
What makes a weak man brave
And a king step off his throne
Good times, bad times
Easy times, tough times
It comes in an instant
And lasts three days after forever
That's what love is.

" The coolness of the riverbank,
and the whispering of the reeds
Daybreak is not so very far away

Enchanted and spellbound,
in the silence they lingered
And rowed the boat as the light
grew steadily strong
And the birds were silent,
as they listened for the heavenly music :angel:
And the river played the song flowerforyou

The wind in the willows :heart:
and the piper at the gates of dawn
The wind in the willows
and the piper at the gates of dawn drinker

The song dream happened
and the cloven hoofed piper
Played in that holy ground
where they felt the awe and wonder
And they all were unafraid
of the great God pan

And the wind in the willows :heart:
and the piper at the gates of dawn
The wind in the willows
and the piper at the gates of dawn

When the vision vanished
they heard a choir of birds singing smile2
In the heavenly silence :angel:
And they stood upon the lawn
and listened to the silence happy

Of the wind in the willows happy
and the piper at the gates of dawn
The wind in the willows
and the piper at the gates of dawn
The wind in the willows
and the piper at the gates of dawn drinker

Its the wind in the willows flowerforyou
and the piper at the gates of dawn
The wind in the willows
and the piper at the gates of dawn
The wind in the willows
and the piper at the gates of dawn drinker

flowerforyou Author: Joyce Hemsleyflowerforyou

Fly beyond the skies with me,

Our Fantasia of Love to be;

never-ending, hearts ascending,

therepeutic remedy

flying high and free.

Over clouds, over the sea,

sailing to Heaven above,

in the springtime,

beautiful ringtime,

we will fly on wings of a dove,

God is our shepherd -

this is our song!

God is our Shepherd, my Love.

When The Ship Comes In drinker

By Bob Dylan smokin

Oh the time will come up
When the winds will stop
And the breeze will cease to be a'breathin'
Like the stillness in the wind
Before the hurricane begins
The hour when the ship comes in

And the sea will split
And the ship will hit
And the shoreline sands will be a'shakin'
And the tide will sound
And the waves will pound
And the morning will be breakin'

Oh the fishes will laugh
As they swim out of the path
And the seagulls will be a'smilin'
And the rocks on the sand
Will proudly stand
The hour that the ship comes in drinker

And the words that are used
For to get the ship confused
Will not be understood as they're spoken
For the chains of the sea
Will have busted in the night
And be buried at the bottom of the ocean drinker

A song will lift,
As the mainsail shifts
And the boat drifts out to the shoreline
And the sun will respect
Every face on the deck
The hour that the ship comes in drinker

And the sands will roll
Out a carpet of gold
For your weary toes to be a'touchin'
And the ship's wise men
Will remind you once again
That the whole wide world is watchin' drinker

Oh the foe will rise
With the sleep still in their eyes
And they'll jerk from their beds and think they're dreamin'
And they'll pinch themselves and squeal
And they'll know that it's for real
The hour when the ship comes in drinker

And they'll raise their hands
Sayin' "We'll meet all your demands"
And we'll shout from the bow
"Your days are numbered"
And like the pharoah's triumph
They'll be drowned in the tide
Like Goliath they'll be conquered drinker








i can't find the utube or video

of the version of Arlo Guthrie

playing "when the ship comes in" ,ohwell

which i love very much drinker

although he has so many good songs ...smokin

Halfway around the world tonight
In a strange and foreign land
A soldier packs his memories
As he leaves Afghanistan
And back home they don't know too much
There's just no way to tell
I guess you had to be there
For to know that war was hell
Chorus:
And there won't be any victory parades
For those that's coming back
They'll fly them in at midnight
And unload the body sacks
And the living will be walking down
A long and lonely road
Because nobody seems to care these days
When a soldier makes it home
They'll say it wasn't easy
Just another job well done
As the government in Kabul falls
To the sounds of rebel guns
And the faces of the comrades
Being blown out of the sky
Leaves you bitter with the feeling
That they didn't have to die
Chorus
Halfway around the world tonight
In a strange and foreign land
A soldier unpacks memories
That he saved from Vietnam
Back home they didn't know too much
There was just no way to tell
I guess you had to be there
For to know that war was hell
And there wasn't any big parades
For those that made it back
They flew them in at midnight
And unloaded all the sacks
And the living were left walking down
A long and lonely road
Because nobody seemed to care back then
When a soldier made it home
The night is coming quickly
And the stars are on their way
As I stare into the evening
Looking for the words to say
That I saw the lonely soldier
Just a boy that's far from home
And I saw that I was just like him
While upon this earth I roam
And there may not be any big parades
If I ever make it back
As I come home under cover
Through a world that can't keep track
Of the heroes who have fallen
Let alone the ones who won't
Which is why nobody seems to care
When a soldier makes it home

Chilling Of The Evening lyrics
Words and music by Arlo Guthrie

Warm me from the wind and take my hand
A song is sounding, softly singing
My song is cast upon the rainbow waves
Forever splashing in the sunlight
Prove to me there's a love still left
In all of this emptiness around me
Take me from the chilling of the evening

Though you know my love that I must go
A-following the winds that blow inside me
I've nowhere left to run or hide
Except if you will come and run beside me
And even if you do there'll be a lot for us to do
To keep believing
Take me from the chilling of the evening

And now my time has come down many streets
I'm coming from a night decaying
The song that itself sings is all alone
I cannot even hear it playing
Now to leave before I understand
Just what it is I know I'm leaving
Take me from the chilling of the evening
