Friday evening, old friends, beer, laughter, memories, Didsbury Rugby Club (so hard to find that our taxi driver couldn’t and dropped us in the wrongest part of town – thanks Sue for coming to the rescue), food, tears, goodbyes, and karaoke.
A great night with great people. I’m glad I got up and sang. I’m glad I chose this song. It isn’t about a broken love affair as so many people think, it’s about – well, have a read of the lyrics, you’ll work it out.
Thanks for the photo Glynne.
Love on the Rocks.
Love on the rocks
Aint no surprise
Just’ Pour me a drink
And I'll tell you some lies
Got nothing to lose
So you just sing the blues all the time
Gave you my heart
Gave you my soul
You left me alone here
With nothing to hold
Yesterday's gone
Now all I want is a smile
First, they say they want you
How they really need you
Suddenly you find you're out there
Walking in the storm
And when they know they have you
Then they really have you
Nothing you can do or say
You've got to leave, just get away
We all know the song
You need what you need
You can say what you want
Not much you can do
When the feeling is gone
Maybe blue skies above
But it's cool when your love's on the rocks
First, they say they want you
They really, really need you
Suddenly you find you're out there
Walking in the storm
And when they know they have you
Then they really have you
Nothing you can do or say
You’ve got to leave, just get away
We all know the song
Love on the rocks
Ain’t no big surprise
Just Pour me a drink
And I'll tell you more lies
Yesterday's gone
And now all I want is a smile
Keep in touch guys.
Great night, but it really did go too fast. Everywhere you looked there was a friendly face, waiting to chat and say hi. I don't think I managed to get round and talk to everyone. I'll remember it for a long time.
