SWEET STRAINS OF LOVE

C'mon, let's sit awhile and talk about love. I know you've been there, is in it, or will be someday. But don't we all know that love makes the world go round. Early this afternoon, I played some music on my cd player and one particular album put together by a friend (my daughter's) did a good job of transporting me to the magicland of love and lovers. A compilation of beautiful love songs which certainly would enthrall anyone listening. But the lyrics of the songs had me glued and fascinated. I have lifted out from the songs specific lines which I think best describes the feeling that is love. Take a look. Maybe you too know some, want to share it?

Here're the sweet strains of love....


Love begins with one hello.
- Hello, by Randy Crawford

Finally found the one who makes me feel complete.

Got to believe in magic. Tell me how two people find each other
in a world that’s full of strangers.

I know I found in you my endless love.

There can be no other love.
Now I know we can have it all forever.

Till I met you I never knew what love was
Till I met you this feeling seems to grow more everyday
I love you more each day
Till I met you.

You are the half that made me whole
You are the anchor of my soul
That’s the love I found in you.

All my life without a doubt I give you all my life
Now and forever till the day I die you and I will share
All the things this changing world could offer so I’ve seen
I’d be happy just to stay this way spend each day with you.

You are one of the few things worth remembering
And since it’s all true, how could anyone mean more to me than you.
