Sweet Dreams
Memory Lane
1932-1963
Patsy Cline was born with another name, Virginia Patterson Hensley in Winchester, Va. Patsy showed her love for music at an early age by singing in the church choir. Times were hard for her family, so she had to quit school and go to work at a local drugstore.
In later years though, she was signed with 4-Star Records, then later with Decca. That's when it began to happen for her. The hits started coming and never stopped until the plane crash that took her life in 1963. She was only 31 years old.
Patsy may be gone, but her music will never die. I know she's still singing those beautiful songs, for I can hear that voice from Heaven.

Grandpa
By: The Judd's
I like to walk with Grandpa, His steps are short like mine. He doesn't say, Now hurry up ! He always takes his time. Most people have to hurry . They do not stop and see. I'm glad that God made Grandpa, unrushed and young like me.
"Grandpa, grownups don't pay attention to me." said little Jimmy. Grandpa replied, "They don't pay attention to me either." "Grandpa, sometimes grownups make fun of me. Do they make fun of you too?" Grandpa said, "Yes son ..... me too." "Grandpa, some days I get tired and have to rest in the afternoon." "I know Jimmy ..... I do too." "I love you Grandpa." said little Jimmy. "I love you too." Grandpa replied. "I wish more people told me that." said Jimmy. "Me too !" answered Grandpa.
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger May you never take one single breath for granted God forbid love ever leave you empty handed I hope you feel small when you stand beside the ocean Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens Promise me that that you'll give faith a fighting chance And when you get the choice to sit out or dance
I hope you dance........I hope you dance
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance Never settle for the path of least resistance Livin' might be mean takin' chances but they're worth takin Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin' Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter When you come close to sellin' out reconsider Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance And when you get the choice to sit out or dance
I hope you dance......I hope you dance Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along I hope you dance....I hope you dance Tell me who wants to look back on the years and wonder, where those years have gone
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance And when you get the choice to sit out or dance
I hope you dance....I hope you dance
This page is dedicated to my son, Brian.
You have been my inspiration and the wind beneath my wings. I love you son and please remember.......
When you get the choice to sit out or dance....
I HOPE YOU DANCE
Your Mom
Remember the music of the 50's and 60's ?
Sometimes when I turn on the 'Oldies' station , I can close my eyes and it takes me back when I was young and I thought that if you were in your 30's , you were old . Oh boy, was I wrong !
The days were always filled with sunshine and dreams, and the nights were spent counting the stars.
But most of all...... there was the music they called 'Rock N Roll'. There was Elvis, Jerry Lee, Fats Domino, Fabian, Ricky, The Beatles and The Temptations and Supremes.
Remember the highschool dances and The Electric Slide, The Mashed Potatoes, The Twist, The Hully Gully and those slow songs that Elvis sang?
How about the Poodle Skirts, Saddle Oxfords, rolled up jeans, Ponytails, Duck cuts, black leather jackets and white t-shirts with the sleeves rolled up ?
The A&W rootbeer , ( Mama Beer, Papa Beer and Baby Beer)The 25 cent hamburgers, hand made fries or coke floats ?
Sitting in the porch swing with your first true love? Or maybe the local drive-in movies where you could get an entire car load in for dollar and see, not one, but two features?
Well, I may be old, but when I close my eyes and listen to the music, I can still remember those days and the music like it was yesterday. And I can still keep up with the best of them when I hear Chubby Checker sing "Lets Twist Again"
I may need to take a couple of pain pills after that Twist, but you can't keep an old dog down ! Ha Ha ! Anyway......
Welcome to the world of 'The Baby Boomers'
Sometimes late at night
I lie awake and watch her sleeping
She's lost in peaceful dreams
So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark
And the thought crosses my mind
If I never wake up in the morning
Would she ever doubt the way I feel
About her in my heart
If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I love her
Did I try in every way, to show her every day
That's she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face the world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna' be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes
Cause I've lost loved ones in my life
Who never knew how much I loved them
Now I live with regret
That my true feelings for them never were revealed
So I made a promise to myself
To say each day how much she means to me
And avoid that circumstance
Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel
Repeat chorus
Eagle When She Flies By: Dolly Parton
When I hear this song, I always think of my mother
She's been there, God knows, she's been there She has seen and done it all She's a woman, she knows how to Dish it out or take it all Her heart's as soft as feathers Still she weathers stormy skies And she's a sparrow when she's broken But she's an eagle when she flies
A kaleidoscope of colors You can toss her around and round You can keep her in your vision But you'll never keep her down She's a lover, she's a mother She's a friend and she's a wife And she's a sparrow when she's broken But she's a eagle when she flies
Gentle as the sweet magnolia Strong as steel, her faith and pride She's an everlasting shoulder She's a leaning post of life She hurts deep and when she weeps She's just as fragile as a child And she's a sparrow when she's broken But she's an eagle when she flies
She's a sparrow when she's broken But she's an eagle when she flies Oh, bless her, Lord She's an eagle when she flies
I was walking home from school on a cold winter day took a shortcut through the woods, and I lost my way It was getting late, and I was scared and alone Then a kind old man took my hand and led me home Mama couldn't see him but he's standing there And I knew in my heart, he was the answer to my prayer
Oh I believe there are angels among us Send down to us from somewhere up above They come to you and me in our darkest hour To show us how to live, to teach us how to give To guide us with the light of love
When life held troubled times, and had me down on my knees, there's always been someone there to come along and comfort me A kind word from a stranger, to lend a helping hand A phone call from a friend, just to say I understand And ain't it kind'a funny that at the dark end of the road Someone lights the way with just a single ray of hope
Oh I believe there are angels among us sent down from somewhere up above They come to you and me in our darkest hour To show us how to live, to teach us how to give To guide us with a light of love
Yes, when we were young, we would pick the petals on a flower and say, "He loves me, he loves me not." Heck, I always cheated with that little game ! For some reason, the last petal was always the one that was..
"He loves me"
Then before you know it , those young years are all gone and you can't even reach down to pick that flower up, you find yourself married with children and grandchildren !
Your hair has turned to silver, your waist is where your butt used to be and your boobs are where your waist used to be !
Your teeth are in the glass at night and you can't even remember if you opened the refrigerator door to put something in or take it out !
No matter what size of pantyhose you buy, those things are always around your knees and that darn wrinkle cream quit working years ago.
But one thing you know for sure is , that guy you married many years ago, will always be 'Your Guy'. Even if he leaves the seat up on the toilet, never ask for directions when you're lost, forgets your birthdays and anniversary, takes over the remote control, never takes you on romantic vacations, or thinks that a night out is going to Bob Evans and stopping at the D.Q. for a shake is your kind of evening !
That last petal you picked said, "He Loves Me" and after all these years, he still does.
So, I'll count my blessings and live with the fact that I'm getting old and that's alright , because honey..... so is HE !
AND HE'S STILL ........ 'MY GUY'
"The Great Pretender"
By: The Platters
Oh yes, I'm the great pretender Pretending I'm doing well My need is such I pretend too much I'm lonely but no one can tell
Oh yes, I'm a great pretender Adrift in a world all my own I play the game but to my real shame You've left me to dream all alone
Too real is this feeling of make-believe Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Oh yes, I'm a great pretender Just laughing and gay like a clown I seem to be what i'm not you see I'm wearing my heart like a crown Pretending that you're still around
Too real is this feeling of make-believe Too real when I feel what my heart can't conseal
Oh yes, I'm a great pretender Just laughing and gay like a clown I seem to be what I'm not you see I'm wearing my heart like a crown Pretending that you're still around
Still around
