You said "DO make me" there for i will!

Go on, do your worse!

Okay, I'll do my "worse."

The right stuff
The right stuff
First time was a great time
Second time was a blast
Third time I fell in love
Now I hope it lasts
I can see it in your walk
Tell ’em when you talk
See it in everything you do
Even in your thoughts

You got the right stuff, baby
Love the way you turn me on
You got the right stuff, baby
You’re the reason why I sing this song
All that I needed was you
Oh girl, you’re so right
Said all that I wanted was you
You made all my dreams come true

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
The right stuff
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
The right stuff

Your first kiss was a sweet kiss
Second kiss had a twist
Third and your fourth kiss
I don’t want to miss
I can see it in your walk
Tell ’em when you talk
See it in everything you do
Even in your thoughts

You got the right stuff, baby
Love the way you turn me on
You got the right stuff, baby
You’re the reason why I sing this song
All that I needed was you
Oh girl, you’re so right
Said all that I wanted was you
You made all.... every one of my dreams come true

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
The right stuff
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
The right stuff

The right stuff, girl, yeah baby, yeah
You know you got the right stuff
And girl, yeah, baby
You know, you know you got it, girl

In my life, you’re so right
You made all.... you know what you did

Rock on

Lo siento. :o

That is quite all right, we all make mistakes!

Ay... ay... ay... ay... ay...

Dime tú si me miras a mí
No soy la niña que antes fui
Me alejé de tu amor, that’s right.
Quiero pensar que se puede cambiar
La luna llena por el sol
En un eclipse total.

Se fué como el viento
¿Por qué acabó?

Ay... ay... haría todo porque estuvieras aquí,
Oh... oh... lo siento
Ay... ay... hoy me equivoqué, me precipité
Pero por favor... oh... oh... lo siento.

Ah... ah... lo siento

En la pared tu retrato colgué
La habilidad sin ti no pinta igual,
Se borró su color, that’s right.
Tanto dolor por un simple error
Que no consigo entender
Vuelve mi amor otra vez.

Se fué como el viento
¿Por qué acabó?

Ay... ay... haría todo porque estuvieras aquí,
Oh... oh... lo siento
Ay... ay... hoy me equivoqué, me precipité
Pero por favor... oh... oh... lo siento.

En mi mente... tu recuerdo estará
Impaciente... yo esperaré
Fácilmente... dejaré este dolor, si cambias de parecer.

Ay... ay... I’m sorry... haría todo porque estuvieras aquí
Oh... oh... lo siento
Ay... ay... hoy me equivoque, me precipité
Pero por favor... oh... oh... lo siento.

Ay... ay... haría todo porque estuvieras aquí,
Oh... oh... lo siento
Ay... ay... hoy me equivoqué, me precipité
Pero por favor... oh... oh... lo siento.

Okay, you brought this on yourself:

She's into superstition
black cats and voodoo dolls
I feel a premonition
that girl's gonna make me fall
She's into new sensation
new kicks and candle light
she's got a new addiction
for every day and night

She'll make you take your clothes off
and go dancing in the rain
she'll make you live the crazy life
or she'll take away your pain
like a bullet to your brain

upside inside out
she's living la Vida loca
she'll push and pull you down
she's living la Vida loca
her lips are devil red
and her skins the color mocha
she will wear you out
she's living la Vida loca
living la vida loca

woke up in New York City
in a funky cheap motel
she took my heart and she took my money
she must of slipped me a sleeping pill

she never drinks the water
makes you order French Champaign
and once you had a taste of her
you'll never be the same
she'll make you go insane

upside inside out
she's living la Vida loca
she'll push and pull you down
she's living la Vida loca
her lips are devil red
and her skins the color mocha
she will wear you out
she's living la Vida loca
living la vida loca

She'll make you take your clothes off
and go dancing in the rain
she'll make you live the crazy life
or she'll take away your pain
like a bullet to your brain

upside inside out
she's living la Vida loca
she'll push and pull you down
she's living la Vida loca
her lips are devil red
and her skins the color mocha
she will wear you out
she's living la Vida loca
living la Vida loca
living la vida loca

My long time girlfriend and fiancee broke up with me. We'd been dating several years. It hurts a LOT.

Rock on

Eric,

In July of last year, my wife of 24 years told me she wanted to separate. It was like having a limb amputated, and we have a daughter (12 at the time), so it was devastating to all concerned. In November, I met someone on the Internet (match.com), and she came to visit in December, and moved in for two months in January. Perhaps it may have even been too soon for me, but we were so compatible, it was like I had known her forever. We started calling each other husband and wife, even though technically we are both still married to others.

She's just left to go back to see her kid (she lives in Brazil) because the kid (who lives with her dad) has started doing poorly without regular visits from her mom, and for the second time in less than a year, the separation anxiety is totally overwhelming.

I feel your pain, and I guess that's why stuff like this makes me cry so easy anymore. The older I get, the less I can let love's carnage just roll off my back.

Hope you feel better, but I know the pain never really goes away, it just fades a bit.
 
Eric, you made me break out the Whitney Houston guns.

So I go, but I know I will think of you every step of the way
So I'll go, but I know
I'll think of you ev'ry step of the way.

And I will always love you.
I will always love you.
You, my darling you. Hmm.

Bittersweet memories
that is all I'm taking with me.
So, goodbye. Please, don't cry.
We both know I'm not what you, you need.

And I will always love you.
I will always love you.

(Instrumental solo)

I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you have all you've dreamed of.
And I wish to you, joy and happiness.
But above all this, I wish you love.

And I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I will always love you.
I, I will always love you.

You, darling, I love you.
Ooh, I'll always, I'll always love you.
 
And I shall counter with Tina Tuner!!

out of the ruins
out from the wreckage
can't make the same mistake this time
we are the children
the last generation
we are the ones they left behind
and i wonder when we are ever gonna change
living under the fear, till nothing else remains

we don't need another hero
we don't need to know the way home
all we want is life beyond
thunderdome

looking for something
we can rely on
there's gotta be something better out there
love and compassion
their day is coming
all else are castles built in the air
and i wonder when we are ever gonna change
living under the fear till nothing else remains

all the children say
we don't need another hero
we don't need to know the way home
all we want is life beyond
thunderdome

so what do we do with our lifes
we leave only a mark
will our story shine like a light
or end in the dark
give it all or nothing

we don't need another hero
we don't need to know the way home
all we want is life beyond
thunderdome

Rock on
Eric

And I'll counter your counter-counter with MEATLOAF!!

The sirens are screaming and the fires are howling
Way down in the valley tonight
There’s a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye
And a blade shining oh so bright
There’s evil in the air and there’s thunder in the sky
And a killer’s on the bloodshot streets
And down in the tunnel where the deadly are rising
Oh I swear I saw a young boy
Down in the gutter
He was starting to foam in the heat
Oh baby you’re the only thing in this whole world
That’s pure and good and right
And wherever you are and wherever you go
There’s always gonna be some light
But I gotta get out
I gotta break it out now
Before the final crack of dawn
So we gotta make the most of our one night together
When it’s over you know
We’ll both be so alone

Like a bat out of hell
I’ll be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell I’ll be gone gone gone
Like a bat out of hell I’ll be gone when the morning comes
When the day is done
And the sun goes down
And the moonlight’s shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I’ll come crawling on back to you

I’m gonna hit the highway like a battering ram
On a silver black phantom bike
When the metal is hot and the engine is hungry
And we’re all about to see the light
Nothing ever grows in this rotten old hole
And everything is stunted and lost
And nothing really rocks
And nothing really rolls
And nothing’s ever worth the cost
And I know that I’m damned if I never get out
And maybe I’m damned if I do
But with any other beat I got left in my heart
You know I’d rather be damned with you
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Dancing through the night with you
If I gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
If gotta be damned you know I wanna be damned
Dancing through the night
Dancing through the night
Dancing through the night with you

Oh baby you’re the only thing in this whole world
That’s pure and good and right
And wherever you are and wherever you go
There’s always gonna be some light
But I gotta get out
I gotta break it out now
Before the final crack of dawn
So we gotta make the most of our one night together
When it’s over you know
We’ll both be so alone

Like a bat out of hell
I’ll be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell I’ll be gone
Like a bat out of hell I’ll be gone when the morning comes
But when the day is done
And the sun goes down
And the moonlight’s shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I’ll come crawling on back to you
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I’ll come crawling on back to you

I can see myself
Tearing up the road
Faster than any other boy has ever gone
And my skin is rough but my soul is ripe
And no one’s gonna stop me now
I gotta make my escape
But I can’t stop thinking of you
And I never see the sudden curve until it’s way too late
I never see the sudden curve until it’s way too late

Then I’m dying on the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell
And the last thing I see is my heart
Still beating
Breaking out of my body
And flying away
Like a bat out of hell

Then I’m dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
Torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell
And the last thing I see is my heart
Still beating

Breaking out of my body and flying away
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell
Like a bat out of hell

Well I counter-counter your counter-counter-counter with the all-mighty gravel voice!

Give me a kiss to build a dream on,
And my imagination will thrive upon that kiss.
Sweetheart, I ask no more than this:
A kiss to build a dream on.
Give me a kiss before you leave me,
And my imagination will feed my hungry heart.
Leave me one thing before we part,
A kiss to build a dream on.

When I'm alone with my fancies, I'll be with you,
Weaving romances, making believe they're true.

Give me your lips for just a moment,
And my imagination will make that moment live.
Give me what you alone can give,
A kiss to build a dream on.
 
Love is the awe-inspiring discovery of someone's humanity.

Not the superficiality we shake hands with, hit on people with, try to get into the sack with, pull one-night stands with, think about ourselves with, and most definitely, chip away at our inner selves with.

Cut and paste my good man, cut and paste. Also, I think just the fact that you brought suffering upon yourself with that last post is gratification enough for me.:p
