Song for a Friend & Yet Another Tag!!!

I do most of my writing on weekends or late nite...and this past weekend I got done with two posts which I didn't put up so far and now I'm just compiling them and posting them together.It was a rather tiring weekend and I guess I felt worse coz I was unwell! But I'm better now and hoping I stay this way. There's nothing I hate more than falling ill...and writing my hate-list seemed to be the right thing to do in that kind of mood...

I also wrote a verrrryyy emotional post (for a friend) which due to changing circumstances I have had to give up on but in it I'd reminded my friend of a song I loved to play whenever we faced "these kind of" situations in the past! Soo I'm going to put the song here and a few words at the end... (and the person it's for, knows it for them)...

Sometimes it’s a bitch … (lyrics by Jon Bon Jovi and Billy Falcon)

“I’ve been through rainbows and castles of candy
I’ve cried a river of tears through the pain
I try to dance with what life has to hand me
My partners been pleasure … my partners been pain

There are days when I could fly like an eagle
And dark desperate hours nobody sees
My arms stretched triumphant on top of the mountain
My head in my hands … down on my knees

Sometimes it’s a bitch … sometimes it’s a breeze
Sometimes love’s blind … sometimes it sees
Sometimes it’s roses … and, sometimes it’s weeds
Sometimes it’s a bitch … sometimes it’s a breeze

I’ve reached in darkness and come out with treasure
I’ve lain down with love and woke up with lies
What’s it all worth only the heart can measure
It’s not what’s in the mirror … but what’s left inside

Sometimes it’s a bitch … sometimes it’s a breeze
Sometimes love’s blind … sometimes it sees
Sometimes it’s roses … and, sometimes it’s weeds
Sometimes it’s a bitch … sometimes it’s a breeze

You gotta take it as it comes … sometimes it don’t come easy

I’ve been through rainbows and castles of candy
I’ve cried a river of tears through the pain
I try to dance with what life has to hand me
And if I could … I’d do it all over again

Sometimes it’s a bitch … sometimes it’s a breeze
Sometimes love’s blind … sometimes it sees
Sometimes it’s roses … and, sometimes it’s weeds
Sometimes it’s a bitch … sometimes it’s a breeze

Sometimes the picture ain’t what it seems
You get what you want but it’s not what you need
Sometimes it’s a bitch … sometimes … it’s a breeze
Well it’s a breeze…it’s a breeze…it’s a breeze….”

And I just want to add...Everything will be ok… You worry about life ahead…but you’re not alone. If u falter…if u miss a step…I’ll be by your side…like I've always been. We’ve seen the worst (you in your life and me in mine)…and we’ve weathered storms and won our battles…AND we’ve never given up faith in each other…

Today looks bad I knowww…BUT look at tomorrow…look at it the way I see it for you...you will smile again…I will hear ur laughter and we will build a lifetime of happy memories…just…don’t let the darkness overwhelm you…I will guide you to the light…just hold my hand…I won’t let go…EVER…

And one last thing…expressed in yet another song (I took the liberty of modifying the lyrics…)

“... You and I know
How the heartaches come and they go
And the scars they’re leaving
You’ll be dancing once again
And the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving
... You and I cry
But the sun is still in the sky
Shining above you
Let me hear you sing you once more
Like you did before
Sing a new song …”
