Feeling sentimental today
This is what keeps playing through my head today:
We dreamers have our ways
Of facing rainy days
And somehow we survive
We keep the feelings warm
Protect them from the storm
Until our time arrives
Then one day the sun appears
And we come shining through those lonely years
I made it through the rain
I kept my world protected
I made it throught the rain
I kept my point of view
I made it through the rain
And found myself respected
By the others who
Got rained on too
And made it through
When friends are hard to find
And life seems so unkind
Sometimes you feel so afraid
Just aim beyond the clouds
And rise above the crowds
And start your own parade
‘Cause when I chased my fears away
That’s when I knew that I could finally say
I made it through the rain
I kept my world protected
I made it throught the rain
I kept my point of view
I made it through the rain
And found myself respected
By the others who
Got rained on too
And made it through
("I Made It Through The Rain" – Barry Manilow)
I am sentimental about you and hope you are well!

Thanks. I needed that. I’m gonna put down this damned phone, blast me some Barry and get on with my day.
Barry’s one of those people it is fashionable to dislike but I have nice memories of quite a few of his songs. They are, indeed, sentimental. Not sure why so many people think that’s a bad thing.
