WEDNESDAY NIGHT MUSIC

By Debbie Bulloch

Now that summer is just around the corner, my thoughts turn to long drives on Pacific Coast Highway (PCH). Roaring down what has often been referred as one of the world's most scenic drives, all the car's windows down, sunroof open, the mighty Pacific Ocean on one side, mountains on the other and my favorite iPod play list blasting on the stereo.

This song, by Stephen Stills (of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young fame) reminds me of one of those fabulous drives. And really, if for whatever reason you can't be with the one you love, then love the one you are with!



Love the One You're With
Stephen Stills

If you're down and confused
And you don't remember who you're talking to,
Concentration slips away
Cause you're baby is so far away

CHORUS:
Well there's a rose in the fisted glove
And the eagle flies with the dove
And if you can't be with the one you love honey
Love the one you're with, Love the one you're with,
Love the one you're with, Love the one you're with.

Don't be angry - don't be sad
Don't sit crying over good times you've had
There's a girl right next to you
And she's just waiting for something to do

CHORUS:
Well there's a rose in the fisted glove
And the eagle flies with the dove
And if you can't be with the one you love honey
Love the one you're with, Love the one you're with,
Love the one you're with, Love the one you're with.

Doo doo doo doo doo doo do-do
Doo doo doo doo doo doo do-do
Doo doo doo doo doo doo do-do
Do-do-do - do-do-do
wo-o o o o o, wo-o o o o o,
wo-o o o o o, a a a-o
wo-o o o o o, a-o
Love the one you're with,Love the one you're with,
Love the one you're with,Love the one you're with,

Turn your heartache right into joy
Cause she's a girl and you're a boy
Get it together, make it nice
You ain't gonna need anymore advice

CHORUS:
Well there's a rose in the fisted glove
And the eagle flies with the dove
And if you can't be with the one you love honey
Love the one you're with, Love the one you're with,
Love the one you're with, Love the one you're with.

Doo doo doo doo doo doo do-do
Doo doo doo doo doo doo do-do
Doo doo doo doo doo doo do-do
Do-do-do - do-do-do

deb
this concept is indeed interesting
ce concept est interessant, j'avoue que je dois y réfléchir !
où est la vie deb où est la vérité, y a-t-il une vérité dans notre vie ! je crois qu'il n' y a pas de solution unique , pas de vision unique ! la vie est une quête permanente et une succession de questions, d'interrogations, d'hésitations ! la vie est finalement une succession de plaisirs, de fuites, de combats et d'inhibitions ! ce concept d'alain resnais est finalement tout à fait pertinent et est applicable à notre vie si on fait le parallèle !
