a tribute to the Shepherds...
they left out this morning for their 24 hour journey to
Austrailia
to set up home indefinately.
you will be missed. from our family to yours...

tune: Yellow Brick Road, Elton John
When are you gonna come down?
When are you going to land?
should we have paid you more?
should we listen to the Big Man?
You know you can hold Crosspoint forever
They would have signed up with you-
Now you're a present for Austrailia to open
America's left singing the blues
So goodbye our Shepherd friends
Where is the plane right now?
You can plant us in your memory
We're going back to our house...
Back to the walls and floors made of wood
Hunting the games you left us
Oh I've finally decided just take them all...
the aussies made such a fuss
What are you doing right now?
Has Rebecca shot down the plane?
It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
To set you on your feet again
Maybe you'll get a replacement
There's few like them to be found
we'll miss you like crazy our best friends
let us know when your planes on the ground

I know it's hard for your family and many others. (Even my mom had a really good cry Monday and I haven't seen her cry in a long time.) Big changes for many people. Part of a bigger plan...
big plans...YeS
but did you like the song? :)
I like your words...but Yellow Brick Road is just obscure enough (to me) to dance on the edges of my memory, trying to remember the exact tune...
dance on the edges of my memory...cool picture jim.
i have a copy, i listened to it during vbs and its the kind of song that gets stuck in your brain.
