I agree with you Neek...the song is beautiful and my mind went the same direction as yours...GB

I also like this song by Beyonce:

I heard this beautiful song by Shania Twain this morning
and for some reason my thoughts went right to Gabriel..these lyrics say it all!!
. ..talk about devine agony...ouch.

http:/<wbr />/<wbr />bit.<wbr />ly/<wbr />4OJJPE

I wish I were the sun shining on your face
Caressing like a lover
I would wrap you in a warm embrace
We'd be holdin' one another
Oh, I'm jealous of the sun

"I wish I were the rain runnin' down your
neck--and drippin' from your fingers
Then I could be the drops rollin' off your
back--I'd love to let it linger
I'm jealous of the rain

When it rains on your face--
I almost can taste
Your beauty, your grace--
I'm jealous of the rain

When the wind's in your hair--
the way it blows through the air
Oh, it's seems so unfair,

A Song For Mr. Gabriel Byrne

BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER

By Simon & Garfunkel

LYRICS

When you're weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes,
I will dry them all
I'm on your side
When times get rough
And friends just can't be found

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
I'll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

Sail on silver girl (boy)
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
When you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind

If I was a guy I'd add this song to my list of songs to sing, but ...

However, I think its a song Gabriel would like - it is so wonderful at evoking the yearning of youth.

Its called "School Days" written by Loudon Wainwright the third (Rufus' dad)

The radio show guy talks a bit, then the song starts.

In my part of the world the winter is closing in, and we have already seen the snow. But luckily it went away, for now......

Today we have had rain and just ugly weather, so here is some music to brighten up our day/night.

Great idea posting the lyrics Neek.
Now you all know how GB makes me feel...
I get into a transe (spl?) everytime I hear this song

A few years ago I was in a rot (again spl ?), feeling like I was dying or rather like I was falling asleep. I felt as though I had lost the essence of who I am. Then I met Mr. Byrne for a brief moment and looking into his eyes woke me up.

Not unlike Kevin Spacey was brought back to life by Mena Suvari in American Beauty, Gabriel Byrne made me want to take control of my own life, have fun again... GB is MY teenage cheerleader covered in rose petals :^O

Kind of intense I know, but true.
Hope you enjoy Rufus' song

I couldn't quite hear all the lyrics, so I looked them up.
Wow thinking about Gabriels eyes when I read
and listen evokes strong emotions.

Im looking for the tower of learning
Im looking for the copious prize
I saw it in your eyes what Im looking for
I saw it in your eyes what Im looking for

I really do fear that Im dying
I really do fear that Im dead
I saw it in your eyes what Im looking for
I saw it in your eyes what will make me live

All the sights of paris
Pale inside your iris
Tip the eiffel tower with one glance
Stained glass cathedrals with one glint

You smashed it with your eyes
What Im looking for
One blink and then my heart wasnt there no more

Im looking for the tower of learning
Im looking for the copious prize

Whilst all our Emmy/red carpet exchanges have been going on this am, I was listening, as I usually do at work, to the Bay area classical station. A beautiful, mournful song, clearly Celtic started playing, similar to Miller's Crossing, just exquisite, and I thought, this is a song for Gabe this morning.

When the DJ came back on he said it was a song written by James Galway and someone else for Natasha Richardson's birthday last year.

Ironic, so sad and a beautiful piece of music for a beautiful woman, I'm sure Gabe knows of it, anyone else?

Found it:

An Cailin Fionn (Natasha)
James Galway, Phil Coulter
