"The Truth Of My Life In Songs..."

I've often thought that much of my life could be set to music... And if so, this would be one of the songs on the soundtrack of my life...

This would be the track from a scene on the cutting room floor...

In the midst of our romance, I'd listen to this almost every day as I worked on the old house I dreamed of sharing with him. And in my heart and in my mind's eye, when this sweet song played, I could somehow see us swaying in each other's arms as we danced across the living room.  

My love for him was is like this...

"I'd Have To Be Crazy"
Willie Nelson

I'd have to be crazy
To stop all my singing
And never play music again

You'd call me a fool
If I grabbed up a top hat
And ran out to flag down the wind

I'd have to be weird
To grow me a beard
Just to see what the rednecks would do

But I'd have to be crazy
Plum out of my mind
To fall out of love with you

Now I know I've done weird things
I told people I heard things
When silence was all that abounds

Been days when it pleased me
To be on my knees
Following ants, as they crawled across the ground

I've been insane on a train
But I'm still me again
The place where I hold you is true

So I know I'm alright
'Cause I'd have to be crazy
To fall out of love with you

Now I don't intend to
But should there come a day
When I say that I don't love you
You can love me away

I sure would be dingy
To live in an envelope
Waiting alone for a stamp

You'd swear I was loco
To rub for a genie
While burning my hand on the lamp

And I may not be normal
But nobody is
So I'd like to say 'fore I'm through

I'd have to be crazy
Plumb out of my mind
To fall out of love with you

I'd have to be crazy
Plumb out of my mind
To fall out of love with you
