Love Never Dies
for my friend Terri…
Singing Skies And Dancing Waters
by John Denver
So many years ago, I can’t remember now
Someone was waiting for me.
I had the answers to all of my questions.
Love was so easy to see.
I didn’t know.
When I was younger I should have known better.
I thought that nothing was new.
Through all the spaces in all of the changes
The one I lost sight of was you.
I didn’t know. I didn’t know.
I could see you in
Singing skies and dancing waters
Laughing children growing old
And in the heart and in the spirit
And in the truth when it is told.
My life became shady and I grew afraid
And I needed to find my way home.
I just couldn’t see you.
The thought that I’d lost you.
I never felt so much alone.
Are you still with me?
Somehow in reason I lost sight of seasons
Tides rollin’ out rollin’ in.
Sometimes in evenin’ when daylight was leavin’
I though I’d never see you again.
Are you still with me?
Are you still with me?
I’m with you in
Singing skies and dancing waters
Laughing children growing old
And in the heart and in the spirit
And in the truth when it is told.
If my faith should falter and I should forsake you
And find myself turning away.
Will you still be there? Will you still be there?
I’ll be there in
Singing skies and dancing waters
Laughing children growing old
And in the heart and in the spirit
And in the truth when it is told.

Lady my sweet lady I’m as close as I can be,my( favorite love song)
Follow me where I go what I do and who I know, make it part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down, all the way and all around(my favorite Jesus song)
John, was one of my favorites along with Neil Diamond, Carly Simon, Joni Mitchell, Bobby Dylan,and Carole King. As far as groups Jefferson Starship,Moody Blues, Blind Faith, Traveling Wilbury’s,as you can tell I like my rock for the most part on the mild ,not that I didn’t go thru the crazys from time to time Rage against the Machine,was my favorite of all when I was in that particular scene.I went through a New Age period with David Lanz and Paul Speers, Classical, Dvork and Mozart, country Johnny Cash and the Highwaymen Hank and Jr.,Blues Muddy Waters,R&B, Marvin Gaye, my cousin Jenny was married to David Ruffin of the Temptations, I guess I am pretty well rounded musically and can go to whatever the occasion calls for.
Your work put me to mind of nice, mellow, tender and lovinly peaceful surrounded with intuition colored with joy
Thank you for your wonderful feelings.
Joe
Jan Landers replied
