An Old Song on A Quiet Day...

The holiday was unusually quiet around the neighborhood...

I guess, most city dwellers were celebrating their holidays somewhere else. Maybe they went back to their kampungs... maybe some traveled overseas- playing in the snow or surfing in the sea... perhaps a few were like me, just quietly spending time at home, counting down the hours to the New Year of 2012.

Whatever it was, most of us were already busy planning ahead or mulling over ideas of embarking yet another new year in our lives. But again, perhaps a few were like me, just taking life as it comes... a day at a time.

And at the time like this, I really am missing my Bee (away...outstation). Too bad you got sick when you're not at home :( Get well soon, dear... and be safe.

Here's one of your favorites which has touched my heart in every single ways ;).

Chris De Burgh - Old Fashioned People

Old-fashioned people, they never know why, 

The world is changing day to day, 

It moves so fast and leaves them in another time; 

An old-fashioned dancer is dancing alone, 

Dreaming of those music halls, 

And with his lady waltzing away until the dawn, 

And I thought I heard him say, 

Please don't take my dreams away; 

They carry me back again, show me that life again, 

Carry me back to the places that I knew, 

Carry me back again, show me that life again, 

Carry me back to the places that I knew...

Old-fashioned lovers, they walk in the park, 

Beside the river hand in hand, 

And hurry home for tea before it gets dark, 

Could be you and me one day, 

Time will come when we will say, 

Carry me back again, show me that life again, 

Carry me back to the places that I knew, 

Carry me back again, show me that life again, 

Carry me back to the places that I knew; 

Carry me back again, show me that life again, 

Carry me back to the places that I knew...

Enjoy.
