Eddie Fisher, a great singer of the 50's died at age 82. He was married to Debbie Reynolds, Elizabeth, and Connie Stevens which all ended in divorce.
He recorded and released Oh My Papa in 1954, one of Eddie's top hits.
I dedicate this song to the fathers and their children.
1
O my Papa
To me you are so wonderful
Oh my papa, to me he was so good
No one could be so gentle and so lovable
O my papa he always understood
2
Gone are the days
when he would take me on his knee
And with a smile he’d change
my tears to laughter
3
Oh my papa so funny so adorable
Always the clown
so funny in his ways
3
Oh my papa to me
he was so wonderful
Deep in my heart
I miss him so today
Repeat 2 & 3
O my papa, oh my papa

What Did for Love, Jack Jones
Kissing the day day goodbye, doing what you had to do, not regretting what had transpired, no regrets, move on, and yet love is never gone. Is it this easy?
What I Did for Love by Jack Jones
Kiss the day goodbye
The sweetness and the sorrow
We did what we had to do
And I can’t regret
What I did for love 2x
Look my eyes are dry
The gift was ours to borrow
It’s as if we always knew
But I won’t forget
What I did for love 2x
Gone, love is never gone
As we travel on
Love’s what we’ll remember...

It’s as if we always knew
But I won’t forget
What I did for love 2x
Gone, love is never gone
As we travel on
Love’s what we’ll remember...

Till the End of Time, Perry Como
Till the End of Time, one song that I really loved when I was in my teens, very idealistic.
1
Till the End of time
Long as stars are in the bloom
Long as there’s a spring, a bird
I’ll go on loving you
2
till the end of time
long as roses bloom in May
My love for you will grow deeper
with every passing day
3
till the wells run dry
and each mountain disappears
I’ll be there for you to care for you
through laughter and through tears
4
So take my hand in sweet surrender
and tenderly say that I’m
the one you love and live for
till the end of time.
Repeat 3 & 4

Sinner or Saint - Sarah Vaughn
When you think you are in love, in your young and idealistic years,
we let our emotions prevail. We are usually attracted by the physical attributes not going deeper into the character, the past of the person and the prospective partner’s family. All these will have a bearing in a long, lasting relationship: marriage.
We can see the faults, but we try to overlook, thinking that we will be able to correct those faults.
It is wise to listen to what other people say, especially our loved ones. As an outsider, they would be able to perceive the kind of person one is.
In the Philippines, the usual advice is: go see the family and see how they interact with one another. Are they loving to one another, or respect is absent. Are the parents treated badly. If they are, expect that you would get the same treatment.
In addition to the other people’s advice, and your own perception, looking over a “tinted glass”, seek God’s advice. Pray earnestly for a God-fearing, God loving and responsible person.
We should not say recklessly that we would accept a person whether he/she is a:
Sinner or Saint
1
I’ll take you dear anyway you are,
a sinner or saint
Doesn’t matter what they say you are
I’ll have no complaint
2
Whether it’s foolish or wise dear
I’ll go along trustingly
They say the devil’s in your eyes dear
but you look like an angel to me
3
I won’t ask you what the past has been
The dreams you have had
All the blessing I’ll take with the sin
The good with the bad
4
Who cares what people say of you
Who cares what pictures they paint
All that I know is that I love
Saint or sinner, sinner or saint
Repeat 4
Who cares?

My World Keeps Getting Smaller Everyday
My World Keeps Getting Smaller Everyday by Neil Sedaka
When you are alone and lonely, you get that feeling that the world is closing in on you. The world keeps getting smaller everyday.
When you are alone and lonely, you get that feeling that the world is closing in on you. The world keeps getting smaller everyday.
Love comes from the Most Unexpected Places
Love comes from the most unexpected places. Don't be anxious, it will come. Pray for a lasting love.
Love Comes from the Most Unexpected places
Love comes from the most unexpected places
In someone’s eyes you’ve never met
Who once to get to know you
someone smile you can’t forget
And if the music plays on in your mind
Take all the love the love that you can find
and if love takes you in
take all the love that you can find
and hope it comes again
love comes from the most unexpected places
a love song on a radio
you never hear before
it buys and drive our loneliness
where people sell their sorrow your time
take take the love that they can find
and if love takes them in
they take the love that they can find
and hope it comes again
love comes in many ways
in lovers arms and sweet caress
but if nothing said that nothing’s heard
but here I stand outside your door
And am trying to tell you once more
that I love you I still love you
Ooh baby I love you Umm----
Love comes from the most unexpected places
In someone’s eyes you’ve never met

someone smile you can’t forget
And if the music plays on in your mind
Take all the love that you can find
and if love takes you in
Take all the love that you can find,
and hope it comes again
Take all the love that you can find
and hope it comes again.
