The song below is from Pippin. It was my first real love's favorite musical. We were 19 at the time and had dreams, but some dreams don't work out as hoped. Our lives followed different paths and I had not heard from her in quite some time. Then this weekend I found out that she died when I was deployed in the Army. I did not know, and now I feel rather numb and sad. So this is my tribute to her. A song she used to sing beautifully. Farewell with loveTracy, Adieu.
Peter
My days are brighter than morning air
Evergreen pine and autumn blue
But all my days are twice as fair
If I could share
My days with you
My nights are warmer than firecoals
Incense and stars and smoke bamboo
But nights were warm beyond compare
If I could share
My nights with you
To dance in my dreams
To shine when I need the sun
With you
To hold me when dreams are done
And oh....
My dearest love
If you will take my love
Then all my dreams are truly begun
And time weaves ribbons of memory
To sweeten life when youth is through
But I would need no memories there
If I could share
My life with you
