"If I Fell" (Lennon/McCartney)
If I fell in love with you
Would you promise to be true
And help me understand
'cause Ive been in love before
And I found that love was more
Than just holding hands...
If I give my heart to you
I must be sure
From the very start
That you would love me more than her
If I trust in you oh please
Don't run and hide
If I love you too oh please
Don't hurt my pride like her
'cause I couldnt stand the pain
And I would be sad if our new love was in vain
So I hope you see that I
Would love to love you
And that she will cry
When she learns we are two
If I fell in love with you...
It's always been one of my favorite Beatles songs. Today I'm doing pretty well with my heartbreak and my new status as "just Brina." I was in my coffeeshop doing paper work, and the song came on. My heart went, "ohhhhhhhh." In fact, I may have gasped aloud. But then, I just soaked it up. It's beautiful, and so is love.
This time 'round, we hurt each other.
But it has beauty.
I'm ok.

Brina, this is my favorite love song. It is by Artie Shaw and is best known as sung by Helen Forest. Frank Sinatra does a great job too.
YOU ARE THE PROMISED BREATH OF SPRINGTIME
THAT MAKES THELONELY WINTER SEEM LONG
YOU ARE THE BREATHLESS HUSH OF EVENING
THAT TREMBLES ON THE BRINK OF A LOVELY SONG
YOU ARE THE ANGEL GLOW THAT LIGHTS THE STARS
THE DEAREST THING I KNOW ARE WHAT YOU ARE
SOME DAY MY HAPPY ARMS WILL HOLD YOU
AND SOME DAY I'LL KNOW THAT MOMENT DIVINE
WHEN ALL THE THINGS YOU ARE, ARE MINE
Get well and get to yourself soon.
Ken
Not "just" Brina - you're more than that.
I'm sorry for your heartbreak.
My favourite Beatle song is "In My Life"...
Beautiful, Ken and Dale.
Thank you. I'm faring better.
And to suffer heartbreak, you first have to love. Which I did.
I'm thankful for that!
