The End

I do apologize for keeping as mum as I have these past couple of weeks. Life on the farm is (not) kind of laid back... how does that old John Denver song go anyway? Thank God I'm a country girl/boy, blah blah blah. Speaking of songs, tonight I remembered a song that Spouse & I danced to, at our wedding. It was our first dance, as man & wife, sung by the band we hired for the reception. I must say, although all of our friends were thrilled for us both, there were a few misty eyes in the bunch, as they watched my beloved lead me around the dance floor, under a beautiful canopy of stars. Our ceremony was outdoors, of course, nearly in the woods *that's where I got dressed for the ceremony*, at the home of a friend. I wore an emerald green gown that was custom made out of beautiful French brocade silky fabric. If I had a scanner, I'd show all y'all a pic, but alas, that thing died years ago and is long gone. It was the wedding of my dreams, quite fantastic, as I rode out of the woods, side-saddle style, on a horse adorned with ribbons, bows and flowers, that was led by my best guy pal, Gary (more like a bro, than just a pal, actually) to the steps of the log home, where my son waited to lead me to my waiting groom. Yeah, it was like a beautiful dream come true.

Anyhow, the song is called "At (The End) of the Rainbow" and the version I heard when Spouse & I were choosing the music for our special day, was sung by Earl Grant, back in 1958. It was someplace at the top of the charts back then & I can easily understand why. So far, I have only been able to locate the lyrics to the song and it's bumming me out big time. Here they are, for your wish-you-could-b-listening pleasure...

Treasa gets the credit for locating this beautiful video for me! It's worth the wait time for those on dial-up, imho, so I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I. Thanks, T! :loveyou:



At the end of a rainbow
You'll find a pot of gold
At the end of a story
You'll find it's all been told

But our love has a treasure
Our heart's can't always spend
And it has a story without any end

At the end of a river
The water stops it's flow
At the end of a highway
There's no place you can go

But just tell me you love me
And you are only mine
And our love will go on 'til the end of time

At the end of the rainbow
You'll find a pot of gold
At the end of a story
You'll find it's all been told

But our love has a treasure
Our heart's can't always spend
And it has a story without any end

At the end of a river
The water stops it's flow
At the end of a highway
There's no place you can go

But just tell me you love me
And you are only mine
And our love will go on
'Til the e-end of time
'Til the end of time ...
