I've had many times, I can tell you 
times when innocence I'd trade for company
and children saw me crying, I thought I'd had my share of that
but these miss you nights are the longest
midnight diamonds stud my heaven
southward burning lie the jewels that eye your place
and the warm winds that embrace me, just as surely kissed your face
yeah, these miss you nights - they're the longest
how I miss you, I'm not likely to tell
I'm human and cold daylight buys the pride I'd rather sell
all my secrets are a wasted affair - you know them well 
thinking of my going, how to cut the thread and leave it all behind
looking windward for my compass, I take each day as it arrives
but these miss you nights. . . are the longest
lay down all thought of your surrender, it's only me who's killing time
lay down all dreams and themes once remembered,
it's just the same this miss you game
.
yeah, these miss you nights. . .
. . .are the longest

just caught up to the fact that you are ill!
Oh Dear!
Hope that you can take it easy and that they find the cause and it's not too worrying and you can laugh, or at least breath again.
Hugs xxxx
Oh gosh--what sad lyrics.
I'll have a listen when himself is done with his cooking program. *laughing*
Yep--he watches the food channel!
Seriously....LOL
Remarkable chap, Sir Cliff.
And I hope you're feeling better.

mig a little - pain killers are wonderful things! and he's great, eh, Cliff
Mel I watch cooking programmes! is that the same thing?
there's a valid place for sadness, methinks
so long as it just remains one place, not the whole place
??
Zig I hope they find out what it is - and maybe, in the meantime, it will just go away!
hugs, honey
Wow.....I had my listen.
What a sad song well sung.
Now--who is this fella?
I'm thinking I need to research!
*shakes head in disbelief*
erm, you are not aquainted with Sir Cliff Richard. . .
say what!!!!!
has The Brit never sung you "we're all going on a summer holiday"?!?!?!?! or "young ones, darlin' we're the young ones"!?!?!?!??!?!?!?
. . .and he's NEVER sung "beware the devil woman, she's gonna get you". . .
oh my

Cir Cliff predates The Beatles, was Blighty's answer to Elvis and has had a number one in every decade since
erm
since
since they started lists of number ones
