Memories






i remember dancing to this
carefree young good times i miss

can't believe i got this old
happens quickly so i'm told
you were so much fun back then
cool smart an adorable friend

i remember dancing to this
carefree young good times i miss

  4. I think we are all startled to find ourselves old! Somehow I feel my body forgot to tell my head!

  5. I just closed my eyes for a moment... and remembered dancing, just dancing (the night away). My old bones are full of longing (and disbelief, too). How can a body get so old when the spirit feels so young? I guess one out of two will have to do.

  6. Oh see that young Elton John. How quickly we get old and I know I loved that carefree time too. I am so with you.

  7. time flies, but we get to keep the good stuff.
    one of Elton John's song i will always remember is 'Goodbye'. Don't know why. perhaps it's the lyrics. still have that LP.

  8. Evidently not as old as me, dearie! I danced to Bill Haley and the Comets, Buddy Holly, and Chubby Checker.
