Happy Birthday, Charlie

This is another song that reminds me of Charlie. it is sung by Eva Cassidy, who died in her mid thirties from cancer. Again, click on the arrow to hear the song, and as you do scroll through the pictures I've posted.








Today has been a special day
An anniversary, a request
That you play your piano
As the evening sun slowly sets

I never thought I'd get this old dear
Never had a reason to live so long
And the Lord's been like my shadow
Even when I was wrong
No I never thought it would turn out this way

A birthday with apologies
For all the tears and regrets
And I've always saved your poetry
For these years when you forget

So sing with me softly
As the day turns to night
And later I'll dream of paradise with you
I love you and good night
