Keep it down kids!!!

I'm starting to miss lyrics. Am I getting that old that I really want to know what the hell everyone is singing?? Only I can't understand the lyrics of songs over the accompaniment....someone get me my walker...lol

So I thought I would start by periodically posting some of my favorite lyrics of all time. Simple, clear, clean songs that can make you smile or shed a tear. My first installment is What’ll I Do ~ by Irving Berlin. It's been on my mind lately because during the Bea Arthur Golden Girls Marathon this weekend they showed the episode in which Dorothy sings this lovely tune. So revisit some of your old favorites and enjoy the memories they are fantastic and in TECHNO-COLOR!

What’ll I Do ~ by Irving Berlin

What'll I do when you
Are far away
And I'm so blue,
What'll I do?

What'll I do when I
Am wondering who
Is kissing you,
What'll I do?

What'll I do with just
A photograph
To tell my troubles to?

When I'm alone
With only dreams of you
That won't come true,
What'll I do?

~interlude~

When I'm alone
With only dreams of you
That won't come true,
What'll I do?

(sniffle, sniffle...)

I watched this marathon too Brandy. Gidget had a bad reaction to her rabies vaccine, REALLY bad and was rushed back to the emergency. While I waited alone at home to hear the news, I watched the girls. Over and over and over.
