Someone like you by Shawn Colvin

I've been searching a long time
For someone exactly like you
I've been traveling all around the world
Waiting for you to come through.
Someone like you makes it
All worth while

Someone like you keeps
Me satisfied. Someone exactly
Like you.

I've been travelin' a hard road
Lookin' for someone exactly like you
I've been carryin' my heavy load
Waiting for the light to come
Shining through.

Someone like you makes it
All worth while
Someone like you keeps
Me satisfied. Someone exactly
Like you.

I've been doin' some soul searching
To find out where you're at
I've been up and down the highway
In all kinds of foreign lands

Someone like you makes it
All worth while
Someone like you keeps
Me satisfied.

I've been all around the world
Marching to the beat of a different
Drum.
But just lately I have
Realized
The best is yet to come.

Someone like you makes it
All worth while
Someone like you keeps
Me satisfied. Someone exactly
Like you.

A Day In The City

It was a hot hot summer Saturday. But didn't let it absorb me .... had fun in the city.

First, had brunch at a cute place "Bongo Room". Very limited space, super long line, but wait was worth it. Food was amazingly delicious and special. Tasted like a combination of western + mediterranean. Portion was good for two.

Egg benedict, spinach and potatoes


Somebody else's dish - tasted like dessert and it's a paradise for a sweet tooth.

Up next, to "Taste of Randolph" for more food tasting on the streets, entertainment and my favorite past time - people watching :)


Just the perfect kiosk, atm machine for peeps like us who don't practice carrying cash.


Outdoor music is the best. You can sing or dance along and nobody could care :)

p/s: No better therapy like a retail therapy ~ well said by a lost friend :)

Love is a journey starting at forever and ending at never.

I Knew I loved You by Savage Garden

Maybe it's intuition
But some things you just don't question
Like in your eyes
I see my future in an instant
And there it goes
I think I've found my best friend
I know that it might sound more than a little crazy
But I believe

I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life

There's just no rhyme or reason
Only this sense of completion
And in your eyes
I see the missing pieces
I'm searching for
I think I've found my way home

I know that it might sound more than a little crazy
But I believe

I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life

A thousand angels dance around you
I am complete now that I've found you

I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life

The Day We Find Love by 911

Don't you worry, I don't mean to make you sad
My tears will soon be over
With your conscience clear for a new life ahead
Don't be sorry, I really need to hear the truth
But the only thing I'm asking, 'cos I need you to
Remember me, as the only one who set you free
Maybe time alone will make you see
How deep our love could be
No, it's never too late

Coz I know, this isn't the first time
It won't be the last time
I surrender my soul
Coz you're always, keepin' me waitin', anticipatin'
The day we find love once again

I won't give up while there's a glimmer of a chance
A dream that's never ending
Inviting love and a perfect romance
A burning passion, oh baby you're my destiny
But the message I'm receiving,
is your through with me
But I'll be there, even though you
tell me you don't care
How could you forget the times we've shared
Don't throw our love away, you
know it's never too late

Coz I know, this isn't the first time
It won't be the last time
I surrender my soul
Coz you're always, keepin' me waitin', anticipatin'
The day we find love once again

Remember me, as the only one who set you free
Maybe time alone will make you see
How deep our love could be
No, it's never too late

Coz I know, this isn't the first time
It won't be the last time
I surrender my soul
Coz you're always, keepin' me waitin', anticipatin'
The day we find love once again
This isn't the first time (The day we find love)
It won't be the last time (And I
need you one more time)
Keepin' me waitin', anticipatin'
This isn't the first time
It won't be the last time
