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 :)
