Still in Love After 20 Years


Ever run across an old song that causes a flood of memories to come rushing back? I don't know exactly why I LOVE this song, but I always have and it's always reminded me of the realness of our relationship. The bad comes with the good. Fortunately, the good is so sweet and rich that it makes the hard times bearable. Refining.

And Michael, I will always remember and laugh about your dream when your jammed with Sting on MTV Unplugged. Wish I could've been there!




Fields of Gold


by Sting
You'll remember me when the west wind moves


Upon the fields of barley


You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky


As we walk in the fields of gold
So she took her love


For to gaze awhile


Upon the fields of barley


In his arms she fell as her hair came down


Among the fields of gold
Will you stay with me, will you be my love


Among the fields of barley


Well forget the sun in his jealous sky


As we lie in the fields of gold
See the west wind move like a lover so


Upon the fields of barley


Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth


Among the fields of gold


I never made promises lightly


And there have been some that Ive broken


But I swear in the days still left


Well walk in the fields of gold


Well walk in the fields of gold
Many years have passed since those summer days


Among the fields of barley


See the children run as the sun goes down


Among the fields of gold


Youll remember me when the west wind moves


Upon the fields of barley


You can tell the sun in his jealous sky


When we walked in the fields of gold


When we walked in the fields of gold


When we walked in the fields of gold

WE aren't quite at 20, but almost! However, if you count dating, I guess it's been more than that. Long time, anyway!
