A torch song

Back home again! Nice to be back home? Hm, yes and no. For me, back home means back to work. Having worked all day and feeling pain in my wrist (RSI from typing), I wonder why I keep doing this.
Well, ok, one thing I know for sure, I enjoyed this weekend away from home very much. Being in a dreamland, it was. “Gone fishing”, I wrote – I was not really fishing the whole weekend, though. I just took this from a song of Lynyrd Skynyrd (“Gone Fishin’”/Edge of Forever), that’s all.

Thought today:
Music that makes me cry - Part I
“Surrender 2 Love” , “Nuevo México”/OL (+Luna Negra)
“Song About Me”/Alla Pugachova
“Crystal Ball”/Styx (Tommy Shaw)
“Don’t Talk To Me Anymore”/Shaw Blades
“Home Is Where The Heart Is”/Lynyrd Skynyrd
“Torch Song”/Todd Rundgren


1) TORCH SONG / by Todd Rundgren.
I used to play this song (on a cassette tape) about 20 years ago, again and again…

愛にさよならを言うとき
これだけは知っておいて
いつまでも
いつまでも、あなたを
想い続けているって

傷つけてしまっても
それは仕方のないこと
とても悲しいことだけれど
あなたを
ずっと想い続けて

心のどこかに、そっとしまってあって
そして毎日、ふと思い出してしまうの

じっと耐えて
あなたの苦しみも
ずっと慕い続けて
永遠に想い続けて
あなたのことを
