Gray Beard Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 I can think of younger days When living for my life Was everything a man could want to do I could never see tomorrow But I was never told about the sorrow How can you mend a broken heart? How can you stop the rain from falling down? How can you stop the sun from shining? What makes the world go round? How can you mend this broken man? How can a loser ever win? Please help me mend my broken heart And let me live again I can still feel the breeze That rustles through the trees And misty memories of days gone by We could never see tomorrow But no one said a word about the sorrow How can you mend a broken heart?

KD in CA Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 O say can you see, by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming, Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight O'er the ramparts we watch'd were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket's red glare, the bomb bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there, O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave? On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the deep Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep, As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam, In full glory reflected now shines in the stream, 'Tis the star-spangled banner - O long may it wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave! And where is that band who so vauntingly swore, That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion A home and a Country should leave us no more? Their blood has wash'd out their foul footstep's pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave, And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave. O thus be it ever when freemen shall stand Between their lov'd home and the war's desolation! Blest with vict'ry and peace may the heav'n rescued land Praise the power that hath made and preserv'd us a nation! Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto - "In God is our trust," And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gray Beard Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Did you ever have to make up your mind? And pick up on one and leave the other behind? It's not often easy and not often kind. Did you ever have to make up your mind? Did you ever have to finally decide? And say yes to one and let the other one ride? There's so many changes and tears you must hide. Did you ever have to finally decide? Sometimes there's one with big blue eyes, cute as a bunny, With hair down to here, and plenty of money, And just when you think she's that one in the world, Your heart gets stolen by some mousy little girl, And then you know you'd better make up your mind. And pick up on one and leave the other behind. It's not often easy and not often kind. Did you ever have to make up your mind? Sometimes you really dig a girl the moment you kiss her, And then you get distracted by her older sister. When in walks her father and takes you in line, And says, "Better go on home, son, and make up your mind." And then you bet you'd better finally decide. And say yes to one and let the other one ride. There's so many changes and tears you must hide. Did you ever have to finally decide? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
