Stay

My whole life waiting for the right time
To tell you how I feel.
Know I try to tell you that I need you.
Here I am without you.
I feel so lost but what can I do?
'Cause I know this love seems real
But I don't know how to feel.

We say goodbye in the pouring rain
And I break down as you walk away.
Stay, stay.
'Cause all my life I felt this way
But I could never find the words to say
Stay, stay.

Alright, everything is alright
Since you came along
And before you
I had nowhere to run to
Nothing to hold on to
I came so close to giving it up.
And I wonder if you know
How it feels to let you go?

You say goodbye in the pouring rain
And I break down as you walk away.
Stay, stay.
'Cause all my life I felt this way
But I could never find the words to say
Stay, stay.

So you change your mind
And say you're mine.
Don't leave tonight
Stay.

Say goodbye in the pouring rain
And I break down as you walk away.
Stay, stay.
'Cause all my life I felt this way
But I could never find the words to say
Stay, stay.

Stay with me, stay with me,
Stay with me, stay with me,
Stay, stay, stay, stay with me.

Just About Time

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum recently announced that ABBA will be inducted to the Hall next year. A long delayed action, I believe.

Abba has been a favorite way beyond generations. They go beyond the 70s that kids even now can sing and dance to Dancing Queen. Remember Mamma Mia? There is even a group in Canada who is very popular among Canadians called Abbamania (?).

Congratulations Abba. Salud.

Other inductees include:

• Genesis. I was surprised to know that Peter Gabriel was the original lead singer of this group. All along I thought it was just Phil Collins. I was not reading history. Now I know.
  
• Jimmy Cliff. Familiar but I think I haven't heard his reggae songs.
  
• Hollies. Who are they?
  
• Stooges. Iggy Pop founded this group. I heard songs of Iggy Pop but never heard of Stooges.
  

Termites on the attack

I don't know who started telling everyone that if you play rock music, termites double up their wood eating habits. I disagree.

I was sound asleep when out of nowhere I could hear those termites chomping on my door frame. Yeah it is true. Maybe God has provided me with extra hearing powers, but, damn, I am truly irritated by the sound of termites eating my door.

And I did not play any music at all.

This morning I was preparing myself for a run when I heard them again. I was playing Michael Buble. They chomp chomp chomp.

When I came back after my run, I played Christina Aguilera. They chomp chomp chomp.

I knocked the wall and the door frame with hammer. They chomp their way still.

I played Gorecki. They would not stop.

I made holes on their passageways and sprayed Baygon all over. I dripped the place with muriatic acid. I put gas. Finally they stop chomping.

Now that I am at peace from my afternoon nap, I heard them again. God must be angry with me. I am only the one hearing them.

WANTED: EDITH PIAF

I am looking for downloadable music by Edith Piaf (La vie enrose, Padam padam, as examples). I've tried with my Limewire but they were all needing more resources.

If you have some of her collections, or you know some sites where I can download them for free, please be kind enough to share it with me.

Thanks very much.
