musings of a damned mind

Something for exams, bitter endings, lingering partings and new beginnings.

I have had debates with people over who is meant to be singing this song, quite a few think its coming form a lover/partner.

Or even a friend.

I don't know but it'll allways be a fathers' song to me as it was my dad who first sang it to me when i was about 5, yeah it kinda stayed with me lol.

So for those who had a parent who could sing this, its wonderful, but for the many many many who don't,
you can one day be this perosn,
if not to a child
to a friend
a sibling
a lover
or all the above if you're from basset ;-P
(sorry)
but seriously, it's worth remembering, friends really are the family we pick for ourselves,

To Abs, gemma, Beth, Liddy, sara and anyone else who is going through a little personal hell atm,

hope this helps,

love you all, and anyone else who reads this for that matter

it's kinda life advice really, still not sure who's singing it, open to suggestions, i just fell in love with it at a young age. 

anyway i'll stop waffling now,
here it is.

Oh and to the three (i think) people I'm giving CD's to, yes this will be on them, and to beth, yes it's roy bailey....there's a suprise!

                                        Everything's Possible

We have cleared off the table
The leftovers saved
Washed the dishes, and put them away
I have told you a story
And tucked you in tight
At the end of your knockabout day
As the moon sets its sail
To carry you to sleep
Over the midnight sea
I will sing you a song no one sang to me
May it keep you good company

You can be anybody that you want to be
You can love whomever you will
You can travel any country where your heart leads
And know I will love you still
You can live by yourself
You can gather friends around
You can choose one special one
But the only measure of your words and your deeds
Will be the love you leave behind when you're gone.

Some girls grow up strong and bold
Some boys are quiet and kind
Some race on ahead, some follow behind
Some grow in their own space and time
Some women love women
And some men love men
Some raise children, and some never do
You can dream all the day, never reaching the end
Of everything possible for you.

Don't be rattled by names, by taunts or games,
But seek out spirits true
If you give your friends the best part of yourself
They will give the same back to you.

You can be anybody that you want to be
You can love whomever you will
You can travel any country where your heart leads
And know I will love you still
You can live by yourself
You can gather friends around
You can choose one special one
But the only measure of your words and your deeds
Will be the love you leave behind when you're gone.
Oh yes, the love you leave behind when you're gone

I'll put this up on both my blogs too, 'cos it's prettyful
wish I'd written it :D
