“Remembering favorite SONGS” “Never to forget”
Is your “NAME” attached to a favorite song – – and that person in your LIFE loved that song so much that you received that “NAME” and every time it was heard on the radio – – they would sing it to you – – with all of the LOVE – – that comes only from the “HEART” when sung with LOVE!
In my case the song “Maria Elena” or in English… “Mary Ellen” – – that is me… and my MOTHER would sing that song – – with so much LOVE – – that I can almost still sing it – – with all the power I can muster – – to make it sound good to me – – and what it sounds like to someone else – – well I never bother to ask.
So… I collected the words – – so everyone that would like to sing the song can follow – – as I also have the music following. Try singing this song – – see if you also like the words and music – – and I will be listening – – to hear this song – – as I just LOVE it!
Maria Elena you’re the answer to a prayer
Maria Elena can’t you see how much I care
To me your voice is like the echo of a sigh
And when you’re near my heart
Can’t speak above a sigh
Maria Elena say we two will never part
Maria Elena take me to your heart
A love like mine is great enough for two
To share this love is really all I ask of you
When the music starts and “JERRY VALE” sings “MARIA ELENA” – – you might do like me – – start singing – – and dancing around the room – – at my age… good exercise for the voice – – and to get these old bones moving smoothly – – “WOW” – – “Miracles still work in mysterious ways – – for us SENIOR CITIZENS” – – just have to add.. “Think young… STAY YOUNG!”
This is one of the songs my husband, Lee would sing to me – – his voice was like “DEAN MARTIN” – – I have him on tape from way back and when – – but when he would sing “When I get too old to remember” – – “WOW” – – It was just “HEAVENLY to HEAR” – – Lee was older than me – – but his voice was terrific – – and every year we would drive to Florida from Missouri and back – – and between singing Lee would play the “HARMONICA” and the kids and I would sing – – we always had so much FUN on our long driving trips – – they were always FUN – – all the way!
MUSIC is one of the things … that I feel that all children should get from the start – – day one – – sing to the baby with all the LOVE – – you can muster into the words – – and add music as you are dancing with “BABY” in your arms – – and even when you are rocking “BABY” to sleep and or whatever – – good MUSIC and SONG – throughout LIFE – – is a LIFE of LOVE!
