Honey you weren't even in the same state as the ball park!!!



You should have been a bit more specific in your original post. Then we would not have been left to try and figure out what you were referring to.;)

The first time I ever saw your face...

...you looked like Arnold on Diff'rent Strokes :P

"..whatch yu talkin about Mr. Drummond?"

C'mon, does anybody else remeber Michael as part of the "Jackson 5" as a short pudgy faced kid?

Sorry - was not trying to scare you. Just trying to figure out what you were talking about by the process of elimination. I would have gone on posting horrendous pics if you hadn't said what you were talking about. :P

It is an amazing song. The lyrics are:

"The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face
Roberta Flack

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the empty skies, my love,
To the dark and the empty skies.

The first time ever I kissed your mouth
And felt your heart beat close to mine
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
That was there at my command.

The first time ever I lay with you
I felt the earth move in my hand
I thought our joy would fill the earth
And last 'till the end of time, my love,
And last 'till the end of time.


I get goosebumps reading them. Reading it just doesn't do it justice, though. The music is soooo perfect. If you can listen to the song, it "floats" somehow, takes your mind into somewhere else, and allows you to dream, imagine, wish and believe. (My heart's fondest dream is someone who feels that way about me, and that I feel that way about him. Shhhhhh, don't tell anyone...)

Ciels-
Michele

While our hearts lie bleeding?~

ooohhh, i like it, its a pretty song ....beautiful lyrics too....:)
The first time, ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars
Were the gifts you gave
To the dark, and the endless skies
My Love.

And the first time, ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hands
Like the trembling heart
Of a captive bird
That was there, at my command
My Love.

And the first time, ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy
Would fill the earth
And last, til the end of time
My Love.
And last, 'til the end of time.
My love.

The first time, ever I saw
Your face
Your face
Your fa-ace
Your face.

Thank you Michele!! someone sees what i am saying!
Yes the song does just float, it flows like nothing i have heard before! Just makes me want to cuddle up next to someone special infront of a fire and watch the flames dance.

Who do you think was cooler, the Jackson 5 or the Osmonds?



Trick quetion?

A: The Partridge family.

Damn, now I'm thinkin' about all the horrible stuff I remember as a pre-teen in the 70's - including "fine Corinthian Leather" and my parents' love of Nana Mouscouri (sp?) and Neil Diamond. Then again, my neighbors had older kids and I remember the 'cool ones' letting me listen to their old Beatles RECORDS in the recroom ...
