‘like a sea around a shore…’

As I was going through some cds to find music that would soothe and calm as I attempted to go through some files and integrate my new office at work.. I grabbed a Cat Stevens CD and stuck it in my computer… Thought I’d share these songs that particularly grabbed my attention today… I’ve always loved Cat Stevens lyricism and imagery… listening to his music and lyrics is like having a conversation with his soul…. It’s almost subliminal, subconscious… Ladies, imagine a man so inspired by you that he would write these lyrics.. sigh… being the elusive unattainable… ANGELSEA Angelsea By Cat Stevens BestAudioCodes.com She moves like an angel And seven evening stars Dance through the window Of her universal house Her voice a crystal echo Lies humming in your soul So patiently awaiting For your ears to behold She ripples on the water Leaves diamonds on the shore And fish from every distance Watch her ocean cellar door Her breath a warm fire In every lovers heart A mistress to magicians And a dancer to the gods And a dancer to the gods Her clothes are made of rainbows And twenty thousand tears Shine through the spaces Of her golden ochre hair Ooh my babe I want you and on my life I swear My conscience will I follow you forever If you meet me everywhere Yes if you if you meet me everywhere This next song... when a man searches for what to say.. this may very well be it... HOW CAN I TELL YOU How Can I Tell You By Cat Stevens BestAudioCodes.com How can I tell you that I love you, I love you but I can't think of right words to say I long to tell you that I'm always thinking of you I'm always thinking of you, but my words just blow away, just blow away It always ends up to one thing, honey and I can't think of right words to say Wherever I am girl, I'm always walking with you I'm always walking with you, but I look and you're not there Whoever I'm with, I'm always, always talking to you I'm always talking to you, and I'm sad that you can't hear, sad that you can't hear It always ends up to one thing, honey, when I look and you're not there I need to know you, need to feel my arms around you feel my arms around you, like a sea around a shore and -- each night and day I pray, in hope that I might find you, in hope that I might find you, because heart's can do no more It always ends up to one thing honey, still I kneel upon the floor How can I tell you that I love you, I love you but I can't think of right words to say I long to tell you that I'm always thinking of you I'm always thinking of you.... It always ends up to one thing honey and I can't think of right words to say I then loaded a playlist made up of songs I love, that are soft and sweet… This voice is one of my favorites.. Gordon Lightfoot, one of Canada’s finest sons… This song has always made me smile.. I hope you enjoy it.. yes.. it’s sappy.. but there are days when sappy is the most precious of things… and it does NOT make me a softie… BEAUTIFUL Beautiful By Gordon Lightfoot BestAudioCodes.com At times I just don't know How you could be anything but beautiful I think that I was made for you And you were made for me And I know that I will never change Cause we've been friends through rain or shine For such a long, long time Laughing eyes and smiling face It's seems so lucky just to have the right Of telling you with all my might You're beautiful tonight And I know that you will never stray Cause ya been that way from day to day For such a long, long time And when ya hold me tight How could life be anything but beautiful I think that I was made for you And you were made for me And I know that I will never change Cause we've been friends through rain or shine For such a long, long time And I must say that it means so much to me Just to be the one who's telling you I'm telling you That you're beautiful Ok.. enough daydreaming… but it was nice while it lasted.. isn’t it wonderful what music can do?… I love you all more than my luggage!
