Hats off to you, gr@cie !! I knew you would find the lyric !!

And I was ready to ask if everyone here was stumped. Only since it took quite awhile until there was an answer.

You know, gr@cie, this gets kinda depressing to think that no one here (besides us) knows the answers to the more difficult lyrics.
So you are aware, I'm gonna wait a little while longer (before answering) to see if anyone else can reveal the lyric.



Oh, and BTW ... HAPPY BIRTHDAY !! I hope you have a GREAT Day !!

 

[annabelle]

And I was ready to ask if everyone here was stumped. Only since it took quite awhile until there was an answer.

Oh and cheers for the good wishes MsMofo... I had a lovely day
