Lyrics after the jump
If you need a friend
Don't look to a stranger
You know in the end, I'll always be there
But when you're in doubt
And when you're in danger
Take a look all around, and I'll be there
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will
When your day is through
And so is your temper
You know what to do
I'm gonna always be there
Sometimes if I shout
It's not what's intended
These words just come out
With no gripe to bear
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you I will
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me
I promise you, I promise you I will
I gotta tell you
Need to tell you
Gotta tell you
I've gotta tell you
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
But if you wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me
I promise, I promise you
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me
I promise you, I promise you I will
I will
I will

The singer reminds me of why I still hate Yanni.
Nice lyrics though. Me likey.
Sent a book to my nephews about the wild oceans.
The thing that did it was the reviews. The book itself doesn't look so good as Sabuda's, but what do children know?
* I will occasionally look at this book even when not reading it to my 5 year old. This book has a great design and page layout. Double page pop ups, interesting facts, small pull down tabs, and vivid colors.
I forgot to mention. The book is in pop-up form.
* This book is expensive but well worth it! I don't recommend that you leave a younger child alone with this book since it is too tempting for them to destroy the amazing pop-ups.
Boo. The book is cheap. Let 'em tear it up. I'd be disappointed if they didn't. I didn't like that review. Not all the reviews are good ones.
* He has hardly laid it down since. The pop-ups are colorful and so full of action. Beautifully made. A must for any youngster who loves sharks!
* not only amazed my grandson, but everyone (including adults) who have looked at it.
One of them said their kid loved the book so much he slept with it.
That's sort of what I'm going for. And the thing is, you got to get them when they're precious and little like this. They grow like weeds. Bat an eye, BLAM they're teenager and then married. I mean it. When they're this young they're really easy to amaze and impress tremendously. Since they're kids you really have no idea of the impact that it has. They could grow to be eighty years old and remember that time you gave them a book.
A woman who worked here had a young son. He was small and I'd see him in his judo robe. I had two copies of Sabuda's God's and Heroes so I gave one to the boy through his mother. She reported the book became his favorite thing instantly. Out of the blue like that had a tremendous impact. I didn't know about family issues. He took the book to school for show and tell. Then last week Deena said, "You should see that kid now. Six feet. Hundred eighty pounds." She motioned with her hand a person much taller than herself.
I hope the little bums like it. James shot some video. I cannot imagine it. James says it makes his life. The entire back yard is layered in children's toys. The entire yard a play area. Primary colors. Kaleidoscope of heaving acid trip plastic material and all of it, every single item, good only for a season or two. They'll grow that fast.
Wild Oceans
That's a nice song, actually.
* Amazon prime clouds song *
This is what Jeff's gang of friends is like. They're my friends too but I never did quite understand them as well. Just like this. The thing is, there is a lot of extra flippy flap combined with faint essentials. That would be the key to getting it.
Deaf Jeff.
Jeff is very clear, exceedingly clear, but hardly anyone else is. So there's a lot of stopping, "What?" A lot of touching back and forth, "What?" "What?" "What?" They're thinking, "I better make it clear for this little dummkopf." So they do.
But you cannot do that with the video. And you cannot interrupt a joke.
It seems he picks up a hitchhiker.
We see him being pulled over by "cop" C on the chest. A lot of pantomime, rolling down the window. The "big fat" cop speaks like the adults in Peanuts. The driver indicates he is deaf. The cop tosses the ticket.
There is back and forth in front of the car, getting into the car, buckling up, straightening out, focusing, car in alignment straight with the road, eye on the road.
Driving resumes. Car is aligned. Things flash by the driver's head, things zoom past with no warning. The video goes all Michael Bay psychedelic about driving.
Gets pulled over again. A shapely cop this time. Repeat, repeat, she rips the ticket.
Driving resumes. Repeat. Window rolled down, rolled up. Chaotic Michael Bay depictions of driving.
Now. I see "the man who taught me'
Helicopters. Poorly formed helicopters with bent blades. GAWL!
vehicle careening, running up road walls, turning over.
Tornado that is not heard.
And finally I see "I D" and 'block" that must be card.
I think the punchline is "
I thought the punchline was "I was only going one block" Our ID cards are are shown as a card in the palm. That threw me. Then I saw I.D. so it's card.
The joke is, "Oops, I had only show him my card."
I'll accept interpretations. Like I say, this is what Jeff's school chums were like at this age. He's a charming lad. Really charming. But you can see how he with his friends might be asked here and there to tone it a bit down.
love this song!
thanks for posting.
How about Naked Eyes for 80's music?
I always thought this song was an Ultravox song.
The lead singer sure likes his hair. Very proud of the hair.
When this started playing I was barraged by insults from the girls here. Ages 22 - 56. That's pretty close to unanimous.
I used to love Midge Ure's voice. Plus, he has better hair.
Ah the 80's. The best and worst times of my life. Wish I could live that entire decade over and over.

I had hair just like that. I love my hair and so did the girls. Now I'm a male patterned balding older gentleman of some distinction. GET OFF MY LAWN!!! :D
