Somber yet Beautiful

Isn't it funny how often sad and beautiful go hand and hand.  I feel that often, as you all know I love those I call my friends and those that are extremely dear to me, well they are my world.  Happenstance this afternoon, I was listening to a playlist on my Iphone as Im doing emails today, always good for a friday.  I came upon this song and its words are a little sad but the actual meaning of the song Zi choose to believe its beautiful. makes me realize those in my life now are the ones I love dearly, the ones I'd do anything in my power for,  I'm putting the words here, you know who you are. I'm Sis, I'm nutter, I'm spouse, but I am always me!  :-D 

Its called Old & Wise by Alan Parsons Project  

As far as my eyes can see
There are shadows approaching me
And to those I left behind
I wanted you to know
You've always shared my deepest thoughts
You follow where I go

[CHORUS]
And oh when I'm old and wise
Bitter words mean little to me
Autumn winds will blow right through me
And someday in the mist of time
When they asked me if I knew you
I'd smile and say you were a friend of mine
And the sadness would be lifted from my eyes
Oh when I'm old and wise

As far as my eyes can see
There are shadows surrounding me
And to those I leave behind
I want you all to know
You've always shared my darkest hours
I'll miss you when I go

[CHORUS]
And oh, when I'm old and wise
Heavy words that tossed and blew me
Like autumn winds will blow right through me
And someday in the mist of time
When they ask you if you knew me
Remember that you were a friend of mine
As the final curtain falls before my eyes
Oh when I'm old and wise

As far as my eyes can see
