Happy birthday, Sophia…and may your days ahead be blessed with blue skies and everything nice! In conjunction with your Big 5-0, I would like to dedicate this song specially to you; I bet you’re familiar with it. Well, you can click on the title below and listen to it on YouTube if you can’t recall how it goes. I find the lyrics very meaningful now…though I didn’t feel the same way when I was younger. The song I’m referring to is TIMES OF YOUR LIFE by Paul Anka.
Good morning, yesterday
You wake up and time has slipped away
And suddenly it’s hard to find
The memories you left behind
Remember, do you remember
The laughter and the tears
The shadows of misty yesteryears
The good times and the bad you’ve seen
And all the others in between
Remember, do you remember
The times of your life
Reach back for the joy and the sorrow
Put them away in your mind
The mem’ries are time that you borrow
To spend when you get to tomorrow
Here comes the saddest part
The seasons are passing one by one
So gather moments while you may
Collect the dreams you dream today
Remember, will you remember
The times of your life
...STILL CRAZY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!
