The Platters - The Great Pretender
Yes - IT CAN HAPPEN
You can fool yourself
You can cheat until you’re blind
You can cut your heart
It can happen
You can mend the wires
You can feed the soul apart
You reach
It can happen to you
It can happen to me
It can happen to everyone eventually
It’s a constant fight
A constant fight
You’re pushing the needle to the red
Black and white
Who knows who’s right
No substitute you’re born you’re dead
Fly by night
Created out of fantasy
Our destinations call
Look up - Look down
Look out - Look around
Look up - Look down
There’s a crazy world outside
We’re not about to lose our pride
It can happen to you
It can happen to me
It can happen to everyone eventually
As you happen to say
It can happen today
As it happens
It happens in every way
This world I like
We architects of life
A song a sigh
Developing words that linger
Through fields of green through open eyes
This for us to see
Look up - Look down
Look out - Look around
So look up - Look down
There’s a crazy world outside
We’re not about to lose our pride
It can happen to you
It can happen to me
It can happen to everyone eventually
As you happen to say
It can happen today
As it happens
It happens in every way
As you happen to see
It will happen to be
Nothing happens to nowhere and nowhere
[Solo]
Look up - Look down
There’s a crazy world outside
We’re not about to lose our pride
It can happen to you
It can happen to me
It can happen to everyone eventually
As you happen to see
It will happen to be
Nothing happens to nowhere and nowhere
You can fool yourself
You can cheat until you’re blind
You can cut your heart
You can fool yourself
You can cheat until you’re blind
It can happen to you
It can happen to me
You can cut your heart
It can happen to everyone eventually
As you happen to say
It can happen today
As it happens
It happens in every way
You can mend the wires
You can feed the soul apart
You can touch your life
You can bring your soul alive
It can happen to you
It can happen to me
It can happen to everyone eventually
As you happen to say
It can happen today
As it happens
It happens in every way
I wouldn’t have missed it for the world - Ronnie Milsap
Talking about love that once was, then lost.
This was the first band that I actually heard at a one night stand at Dover Odeon just before I left school.
Prior to that the PA’s were not loud enough to be heard over the screaming of the girls in the audience, I think a PA of a total of 50 watts was pretty common in those far off days.
The bands could have been performing the National Anthem or “My Boomerang Won’t come Back” for all the audience knew.

so so sad…when you can relate to that song it is just tears and more tears…
There’s goodness in the world and there’s goodness in your heart. All you’ve got to do is accept the fact.
If we change how we think about the things we already have in our lives then everything we could want is already within our grasp.
Everything is Beautiful - Ray Stevens
A song that tells of past guilt and being released from that guilt.
At some stage we need to be kinder to ourselves and move along the highway of life.
