It is near midnight on Tuesday, July 9th and I have been on my laptop listening to some really great music at random!!! This song is one I wish we could all benefit from... Simply Red with "Holding Back The Years"...
I wish we could all keep holding back the years. If anyone has invented a time machine let me know. In the late fall of my life I really wish I could hold back the years... If you are one of the younger people, this may seem a bit obtuse, but in reality it is not. Time moves smartly forward whether we like it or not... Today one is young, tomorrow a little older and too soon one looks back at those so much younger and wishes we could hold back the years in our lives...
May you all have a wonderful night and see if you can "Hold Back The Years"...

Lyrics
"Holding back the years
Thinking of the fear I've had so long
When somebody hears
Listen to the fear that's gone
Strangled by the wishes of pater
Hoping for the arms of mater
Get to me the sooner or later
Holding back the tears
Chance for me to escape from all I know
Holding back the tears
'Cause nothing here has grown
I've wasted all my tears
Wasted all those years
Nothing had the chance to be good
Nothing ever could, yeah
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on, so tight
Well I've wasted all my tears
Wasted all of those years
And nothing had the chance to be good
'Cause nothing ever could
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
I'll keep holding on
Holding
Holding
Holding
Holding
I said
It's all I have today
It's all I have to say"
