Good News....

Recommended Posts

Good News: I just came back from seeing "Jersey Boys" on Broadway. What a great play - fascinating story and the music of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons...what a trip. I don't know how the frankie actor/singer hit that falsetto and sang

Somebody kicks him in a "strategic" place right before show time. Or as Dan Ingram used to say "Walk Like a Man, sing like a girl."

danmichael - I mean the line you wrote sounds like it is the beginning of a beautiful song - in other words, it should be a song!

OK...Here is a rushed version of what such a song might be...Warning...it's a bit on the sappy side.

"Bad News"

and i'm feeling down again

but i know it isn't over

i feel the pain again

but i won't walk out the door

i'm sitting here all by myself

i see my heart upon the shelf

i know tomorrow i'll be coming back for more

bad news is the kind of news that makes good news so much sweeter

like sunrise would be nothing without the long dark night

joy would be an empty thing...without the corresponding pain

if there were to be no darkness...how could we see the light?

and i'll find myself again

'cause i remember all that's happened

i'll be myself again

just like i was before

while the tears are falling down

dripping slowly down my frown

i know tomorrow they won't be there anymore

bad news is the kind of news that makes good news so much sweeter

like sunrise would be nothing without the long dark night

joy would be an empty thing...without the corresponding pain

if there were to be no darkness...how could we see the light?

(bridge)

daylight is calling me to answer

tomorrow's at my window

and soon sorrow's out the door

bad news is the kind of news that makes good news so much sweeter

like sunrise would be nothing without the long dark night

joy would be an empty thing...without the corresponding pain

if there were to be no darkness...how could we see the light?

I just experienced a miracle! I got to see my granddaughter, Jessi, walk for the very first time all by herself without her walker!!! I can hardly wait for the family Christmas party to see her slowly toddling around with all of her cousins just the way a little girl should!

He's gorgeous, Boo! Grandkids are such wonderful blessings!
