You Are a Shining Star!
Sep. 22nd, 2006 03:30 pmWhy do I get chills whenever I hear Lionel Richie singing, Say You Say Me? Part nostalgia. Part melody, perhaps? But today I actually listened to the lyrics; I never realized how lovely they were. Songs about loneliness vs. togetherness are the best.
"Say You, Say Me"
[Chorus:]
Say you, say me
Say it for always, that's the way it should be
Say you, say me
Say it together, naturally
I had a dream I had an awesome dream
People in the park playing games in the dark
And what they played was a masquerade
And from behind of walls of doubt a voice was crying out
[Chorus]
As we go down life's lonesome highway
Seems the hardest thing to do is to find a friend or two
A helping hand - some one who understands
That when you feel you've lost your way
You've got some one there to say I'll show you
[Chorus]
So you think you know the answers - oh no
well, the whole world has got you dancing
That's right - I'm telling you
It's time to start believing - oh yes
Believing who you are - you are a shining star
[Chorus]
"Say You, Say Me"
[Chorus:]
Say you, say me
Say it for always, that's the way it should be
Say you, say me
Say it together, naturally
I had a dream I had an awesome dream
People in the park playing games in the dark
And what they played was a masquerade
And from behind of walls of doubt a voice was crying out
[Chorus]
As we go down life's lonesome highway
Seems the hardest thing to do is to find a friend or two
A helping hand - some one who understands
That when you feel you've lost your way
You've got some one there to say I'll show you
[Chorus]
So you think you know the answers - oh no
well, the whole world has got you dancing
That's right - I'm telling you
It's time to start believing - oh yes
Believing who you are - you are a shining star
[Chorus]
