This is something I wrote for Andrea before I learned of the cancer. However, as rapidly as things went I never got to share it with her. Now that her spirit is here I will share it through all of you with her. It was intended to be an insert in her birthday card which would of been the 26th of December.


She always had words to make me feel better. She always knew what to say. I don't know why or how. But she did. She also had outstanding timing to cut through the most tense situations.


The way she handled herself and the way she treated others definatley inspired me.


I miss you so much!!


 


THE PLACE THAT I GO


 


THERE IS A PLACE I GO WHEN I'M FEELIN' BAD


OUTTA' MY BODY, OUTTA' MY MIND


A PLACE I GO WHEN I'M FEELIN' SAD


PEACE THERE IS THE THING THAT I FIND


EVERYTHING THAT IS THERE IS MINE


 


YOUR BODY, YOUR HEART, YOUR SPIRIT, YOUR SOUL


THIS IS THE PLACE, THE PLACE THAT I GO


AND HERE IS THE LOVE, THE LOVE I NEED TO KNOW


PLEASE TAKE MY HAND, AND TAKE ME


TO THE PLACE THAT I GO


 


HERE I CAN CRY OUT, AS TEARS HIT YOUR HANDS


AND HERE IS WHERE YOU CAN COMFORT ME


WHERE BEFORE I JUST RAN


TAKE ME THERE SO I CAN MAKE YOU SEE


THE PLACE THAT I GO, NOWHERE I'D RATHER BE


 


I TRY TO IMAGINE WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE


IF YOU WERE REALLY HERE FOR ME


BUT I HOPE AND I PRAY,


THROUGH FAITH I CAN STILL BELIEVE


THE PLACE THAT MY LOVE WILL ALWAYS KNOW


YOUR HEART AND SOUL


THE PLACE THAT I GO


 


YOUR BODY, YOUR HEART, YOUR SPIRIT, YOUR SOUL


THIS IS THE PLACE, THE PLACE THAT I GO


AND HERE IS THE LOVE, THE LOVE I NEED TO KNOW


PLEASE TAKE MY HAND, AND TAKE ME


TO THE PLACE THAT I GO

Dear Para,

It was nice to read the lovely words you wrote for Lea intended for her Birthday Card.
Lea's family, friends and fans will be touched by them. Thank you for publishing them.

On one of my postings on the CSS Forum, I quoted a few words of a lovely song recorded by Mario Lanza amongst others, "All The Things You Are".

The full wording is below.
Every devotee of lovely Lea would happily subscribe to these words I am sure,...

You are the promised kiss of Springtime
That makes the lonely Winter seem long.
You are the breathless hush of evening
That trembles on the brink of a lovely song.

You are the Angel glow that lights a star,
The dearest things I know are what you are.

Some day my happy arms will hold you,
And some day I'll know that moment divine,
When all the things you are, are mine.

(Jerome Kern/Oscar Hammerstein II)

On the music cd I have, this is followed by the song (made famous by our own Vera Lynn in the Second World War), "I'll Be Seeing You". These lyrics are,...

I’ll be seeing you
In all the old familiar places
That this heart of mine embraces
All day through

In that small café
The park across the way
The children’s carousel
The chestnut trees
The wishing well

I’ll be seeing you
In every lovely Summer’s day
In everything that’s light and gay
I’ll always think of you that way

I’ll find you in the morning Sun
And when the night is new
I’ll be looking at the Moon
But I’ll be seeing you 

(Fain/Kahal)
