Then I Saw Her Face, I'm A Believer

I thought love was only true in fairy tales

Meant for someone else but not for me

Love was out to get me

That's the way it seemed

Disappointment haunted all my dreams

Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer

Not a trace of doubt in my mind

I'm in love, I'm a believer!

I couldn't leave her if I tried

                ~~ I'm A Believer, The Monkees

We lost another Monkee recently - Peter Tork.  Sadness.  Watching The Monkees on tv is a very young memory for me.  We couldn't record things back then, so swushhh!-I watched that clock and was ready and seated when it was on.  This song has also been recorded more recently by Smash Mouth.  I'm loyal to the first version but do like theirs too.  

To the here and now.  I was reminded of this song particularly when working on my review of Go&See's Ester skins for Skin Fair 2019.  Well.  Wow!  I'm definitely a believer!  These skins for Catwa are gorrrrrgeous!  The tones are soft and creamy with a perfect amount of blush.  The brows are marvelous, and the lips, mwaah!  8 tones.  I must have been under a rock or more tones have been added?  Because I've been to the store in the past, and thought this brand stayed in the realm of pale.  Color ME wrong.  There's a whole battery of tone beauty.  I give these skins my personal HIGHEST rating.  5 stars.  I may never take it off, which will make more reviews a bit difficult, but ya know.  ;)

This Desert Flower

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand
I dream of fire
These dreams are tied to a horse that will never tire
And in the flames
Her shadows play in the shape of a man's desire
This desert rose
Each of her veils, a secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this
And as she turns
This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams
This fire burns
I realise that nothing's as it seems

                     ~~ Desert Rose, Sting

Soft As Spring

Soft as Spring

The bluebird's wing

The song you sing 

Is like heaven on earth to me

Cool new dawn

A wide-eyed fawn

Are like your song

They are heaven on earth to me

A sudden need to hold you

A sudden need to love

And in my arms enfold you

Then I'll ask nothing more of you

Soft as Spring

The bluebird's wing

The song you sing 

Is like heaven to me

All Flowers In Time Bend Towards The Sun

My eyes are
A baptism
Oh, I am fuse
And sing her
Into my thoughts
Oh, phantom elusive thing

Oh, all flowers in time bend towards the sun
I know you say that there's no-one for you
But here is one
All flowers in time bend towards the sun
I know you say that there's no-one for you
But here is one, but here is one...
Here is one

                      ~~ Jeff Buckley w/Elizabeth Fraser

It's a really beautiful song if you've never heard it.  :-)

Beach Baby Give Me Your Hand

Beach baby, beach baby, give me your hand

Give me something that I can remember

Just like before, we can walk by the shore in the moonlight

Beach baby, beach baby, there on the sand

From July to the end of September

Surfin' was fun, we'd be out in the sun every day

Mmm, I never thought that it would end

Mmm, and I was everybody's friend

Long hot days

Blue sea haze

Jukebox plays

But now it's fading away

The Fountain of Lamneth

Living one long sunrise

For to me all things are new

I’ve never watched the sky grow pale

Or strolled through fields of dew

I do not know of dust to dust

I live from breath to breath

I live to climb that mountain to

The Fountain of Lamneth
