Happy Birthday to the Wifey
Billy Joel has a song, All About Soul. I think of my wife whenever I hear that song. That's a good thing. Shall we check the lyrics?
All About Soul
She waits for me at night. She waits for me in silence.
She gives me all her tenderness and takes away my pain.
And so far she hasn't run, though I swear she's had her moments
She still believes in miracles while others cry in vain
It's all about soul
It's all about faith and a deeper devotion
It's all about soul
Cause under the love is a stronger emotion
She's got to be strong
Cause so many things getting out of control
should drive her away
So why does she stay?
It's all about soul.
She turns to me sometimes and she asks me what I'm dreaming
and I realize that I've gone a million miles away
And I ask her how she knew to reach out to me at that moment
And she smiles because it's understood there are no words to say
It's all about soul
It's all about knowing what someone is feeling
The woman's got soul
The power of love and the power of healing
This life isn't fair
It's gonna get dark, it's gonna get cold
You've gotta be tough, but that ain't enough
It's all about soul.
There are people who have lost every trace of human kindness
There are many who have fallen
There are some who still survive
She comes to me at night and she tells me her desires
And she gives me all the love I need to keep my faith alive
It's all about soul
It's all about the joy that comes out of sorrow
Who's standing now and who's standing tomorrow
You've got to be hard
As hard as the rock in that old rock and roll
But that's only part
You know in your heart
It's all about soul.
See why I think of her?
Happy Birthday to Miss-A-Little-Time-On-Her-Hands.
Look what spare change turned into.
