cd sunday ~ classics

it's another cd sunday ~

with some classic 70s cds ~

focusing on more ladies toxic grew up listening to ~

like stevie nicks & fleetwood mac ~

roberta flack's killing me softly has a certain poignancy in our memory ~

& toxic had karen carpenter's hairstyle in 4th grade ;) ~

i love her songs & will always remember bringing our tabitha pittypat home from being spayed how the song 'i'll say goodbye to love' was playing as tabitha meowed sadly & pitifully from her cat carrier! we have home movies of this <3 (at home she had 5 daughters as well as their aunt sabrina, all of whom never wanted for anything in their lives.. lol) ~

i'll say goodbye to love
no one ever cared if i should live or die
time and time again the chance for love has passed me by
& all i know of love
is how to live without it
i just can't seem to find it

so i've made my mind up
i must live my life alone
& though it's not the easy way
i guess i've always known
i'd say goodbye to love

there are no tomorrows for this heart of mine
surely time will lose these bitter memories
& i'll find that there is someone to believe in
& to live for something i could live for

all the years of useless search
have finally reached an end
loneliness and empty days will be my only friend
from this day love is forgotten
i'll go on as best i can

what lies in the future
is a mystery to us all
no one can predict the wheel of fortune as it falls
there may come a time when i will see that i've been wrong
but for now this is my song

& it's goodbye to love
i'll say goodbye to love..

 

 

& who can forget janis ian's song 'at 17' ~

 

 

another special favorite, carole king just celebrated her 81st birthday, we have her recent concert with james taylor to watch later today :) (& i wonder what that tabby's name is?) ~
