Problems...real and imagined

I have read through several posts over the last few days from folks with problems and concerns...some real, and some imagined, or posted for dramatic effect. I think most of us know the difference.

It is sad when folks think so little of themselves and us that they often see reaching out as something to make light of.

For those here who have had some real issues they have needed to discuss, these words are for you. They are by someone named Puff Johnson. Title Over and Over

So you stood there on the corner

With your suitcase in your hand

Ready to quit this place

There were just too many people

With too little left to lose

You were just one more face

But you weren't born to give up easy

You weren't raised to just lie down

And you saw the sun that rises up for more

Over and over

You watch the wave that wears away the shore

Over and over again

And if there's any justice in this world

Gotta keep fighting on

Over and over

They say God always forgives us

But can we forgive ourselves

If we let our hope die

Cause if passion is a weakness

And silence is a strength

Who's gonna hear the cry?

So we gotta climb the highest mountain

We gotta shout for all to hear

And we'll see the sun that rises up for more

Over and over and over

And we'll feel the wave that wears away the shore

Over and over and over again

And if there's any justice in this world

Gotta keep moving on

Over and over

You gotta keep fighting on

Over and over

(All that we dream)

All that we dream can come to be

All that we lost we'll find if we

Just strike the match

And fan the flame

We'll build a blaze

That lights the way

We'll be the sun that rises up for more

Over and over

We'll be the wave that wears away the shore

Over and over again

And if there's any justice in this world

You gotta keep moving on

Over and over

Gotta keep fighting on

We'll be the star that rises up

Over and over

Over and over and over and over

'Cause if there's any justice in this world

You gotta keep moving on

Over and over

You gotta keep moving on

You gotta keep fighting on

Over and over

Over and over again

Yes, really. The line about any justice in the world. Could have been written with you in mind. I first heard the song several years ago, and the words come to mind now and again. I really want to find a recording of it.

The song is called "Over and Over". I first heard it when it was played over the closing credits of the movie First Wives Club. I know it is on the sound track, but I just have to find it.

The above gives you the information about the album.



This may be it below. But you would need to check that it's the original sound track on the Sony label as opposed to the original score on the Varese label: -

This is definitely it: -

Hope that helps you out there, Marie. I'd go for the second pick as it's appears cheaper, but check their individual shipping costs. Let me know if you need help navigating around the site.

Contact details should be there for each individual store.
