Sheba, Wishing your hubs a Happy Fathers Day! I know you miss your Dad and hope you will see some butterflies.
My yard is getting its summer clean up. Today I hand cut and cleaned a very large tree/bush in my yard. Once done, then I will put new bark down and it should look much better and loved. Oh, a huge bush next to the patio is well loved by the bee’s and i can’t get near it. Didn’t see any nests.
Happy Fathers Day to all the Dad’s!

Where Did Your Heart Go?
Song by Wham!

I spend my nights down on the wharf
In unlit alleyways
By the church downtown
Where Sally prays
Come down sometime
We’ll share a rusty can of corn, yeah
And listen to the radio
I love you, I love you, it says
Where did your heart go?
Did you put it on a train?
Did you leave it in the rain
Or down in Mexico?
Where did your heart go?
Did you put it on a train?
Did you leave it in the rain
Or down in Mexico?
You cried but I don’t know how
I’ve heard it all before
There it goes it again, the slamming of the door
Sometimes the river calls me
And at night it calls my name
Says “Put your troubles down beside me”
Things have always been the same
And rock ‘n’ roll won’t teach me
What the river said that night
I jumped into this beauty
And drifted out of sight
Where did your heart go?
Did you put it on a train?
Did you leave it in the rain
Or down in Mexico?
Where did your heart go?
Did you put it on a train?
Did you leave it in the rain
Or down in Mexico?

Copacabana (At the Copa) 1985
Song by Barry Manilow

Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl
With yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there
She would merengue and do the cha-cha
And while she tried to be a star
Tony always tended bar
Across the crowded floor, they worked from eight til four
They were young and they had each other
Who could ask for more?
At the copa (co) Copacabana (Copacabana)
The hottest spot north of Havana (here)
At the copa (co) Copacabana
Music and passion were always the fashion
At the copa they fell in love
Copa, Copacabana
His name was Rico
He wore a diamond
He was escorted to his chair, he saw Lola dancing there
And when she finished, he called her over
But Rico went a bit to far
Tony sailed across the bar
And then the punches flew and chairs were smashed in two
There was blood and a single gun shot
But just who shot who?
At the copa (co) Copacabana (Copacabana)
The hottest spot north of Havana (here)
At the copa (co) Copacabana
Music and passion were always the fashion
At the copa, she lost her love
(Copa, Copacabana)
(Copa, Copacabana)
(Copacabana)
like in Havana
(Copa, banana)
Music and passion were always in fashion
Her name is Lola, she was a showgirl
But that was thirty years ago, when they used to have a show
Now it’s a disco, but not for Lola
Still in dress she used to wear
Faded feathers in her hair
She sits there so refined, and drinks herself half-blind
She lost her youth and she lost her Tony
Now she’s lost her mind
At the copa (co) Copacabana (Copacabana)
The hottest spot north of Havana (here)
At the copa (co) Copacabana
Music and passion were always in fashion
At the copa don’t fall in love
don’t fall in love
(Copacabana)
(Copacabana)

Peace Out Peeps enjoy your evening and stay cool and safe. ✨

Dance with My Father
Song by Luther Vandross

Back when I was a child
Before life removed all the innocence
My father would lift me high
And dance with my mother and me and then
Spin me around till I fell asleep
Then up the stairs he would carry me
And I knew for sure I was loved
If I could get another chance
Another walk, another dance with him
I’d play a song that would never ever end
How I’d love, love, love to dance with my father again, ooh
When I and my mother would disagree
To get my way I would run from her to him
He’d make me laugh just to comfort me, yeah, yeah
Then finally make me do just what my momma said
Later that night when I was asleep
He left a dollar under my sheet
Never dreamed that he would be gone from me
If I could steal one final glance, one final step
One final dance with him
I’d play a song that would never ever end
‘Cause I’d love, love, love to dance with my father again
Sometimes I’d listen outside her door
And I’d hear how my mother cried for him
I pray for her even more than me
I pray for her even more than me
I know I’m praying for much too much
But could you send back the only man she loved?
I know you don’t do it usually
But dear Lord she’s dying to dance with my father again
Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream

I Knew You Were Waiting
Song by George Michael/Aretha Franklin

… Like a warrior that fights and wins the battle
I know the taste of victory
Though I went through some nights consumed by the shadows
I was crippled emotionally
… Somehow I made it through the heartache, yes, I did
Oh, I escaped (aha ha)
I found my way out of the darkness
I kept my faith (I know you did), kept my faith
… When the river was deep, I didn’t falter
When the mountain was high, I still believed
When the valley was low, it didn’t stop me, no no
I knew you were waiting, I knew you were waiting for me
Uh huh
… With an endless desire, I kept on searching
Sure in time our eyes would meet
And like a bridge that’s on fire, the hurt is over
One touch and you set me free
… No, I don’t regret a single moment, no, I don’t
(I know you don’t) Looking back
When I think of all those disappointments
I just laugh (I know you do), I just laugh
… When the river was deep, I didn’t falter
When the mountain was high, I still believed
When the valley was low, it didn’t stop me, oh
I knew you were waiting, hey, I knew you were waiting for me
… So we were drawn together through destiny, ooh boy, ooh!
I know this love we share was meant to be, oh
(Knew you were waiting) Ooh, yeah
(Knew you were waiting) I knew you were waiting
(Knew you were waiting for me)
… I didn’t falter, no
(I still believed) When the valley was low
(It didn’t stop me) Nothing can stop me, no
(Knew you were waiting) No, I
(Knew you were waiting for me)
(I didn’t falter) When the mountain was high
(I still believed) Oh, when the valley was low
(It didn’t stop me) No, it didn’t stop me, no
(Knew you were waiting) stop me
(Knew you were waiting for me)
(I didn’t falter) Oh, oh yeah
(I still believed) Oh, I still believed
(It didn’t stop me) Do you know it couldn’t stop me now? No
(Knew you were waiting)
Someday (someway), some place (somehow)
For me
(I didn’t falter) When the valley was low
(I still believed) I still believe (I believed, I believed)
(It didn’t stop me) Yeah, it couldn’t stop me

I’m Your Man
Song by Wham!

Call me good, call me bad
Call me anything you want to baby
But I know, uh-huh, that you’re sad
And I know I’ll make you happy
With the one thing that you never had
Baby I’m your man
Don’t you know that? Baby I’m your man
You bet, if you’re gonna do it, do it right, right
Do it with me
If you’re gonna do it, do it right, right
Do it with me
If you’re gonna do it, do it right, right
Do it with me
If you’re gonna do it, do it right, right
Do it with me
So good, you’re divine
Wanna take you, wanna make you
But they tell me it’s a crime
Oh, everybody knows where the good people go
But where we’re going baby, ain’t no such word as no
Baby, I’m your man, don’t you know who I am?
Baby, I’m your man
You know, you bet, if you’re gonna do it, do it right, right
Do it with me (come on baby)
If you’re gonna do it, do it right, right (yeah)
(Ooh, take me home) do it with me
If you’re gonna do it, do it right, right
(Please don’t leave me here) do it with me
If you’re gonna do it, do it right
Do it on my own
First class information (oh-oh)
Sense your inspiration
With some stimulation (ahh)
Ooh yeah, we can do it right (oh)
(Ooh)
So why waste time, with the other guys?
When you can have mine
I ain’t asking for no sacrifice
Baby our friends do not need to know
I’ve got a real nice place to go
Listen, I don’t need you to care
I don’t need you to understand, yeah
All I want is for you to be there
And when I’m turned on, if you want me
I’m your man (I’m your man)
If you’re gonna do it, do it right, right
Do it with me (oh!)
If you’re gonna do it, do it right, right
Do it with me
If you’re gonna do it, do it right, right
Do it with me (oh)
If you’re gonna do it, do it right, right
Now listen
If you’re gonna do it, you know what I say?
If you’re gonna do it, don’t throw it away
Don’t throw it baby
Don’t throw it because…
I’ll be your boy, I’ll be your man
I’ll be the one who understands
I’ll be your first, I’ll be your last
I’ll be the only one you ask
I’ll be your friend, I’ll be your toy
I’ll be the one who brings you joy
I’ll be your hope, I’ll be your pearl
I’ll take you halfway ’round the world
I’ll make you rich, I’ll make you poor
Just don’t use the door
If you’re gonna do it, do it right, right
Do it with me
If you’re gonna do it, do it right, right
Do it with me
If you’re gonna do it, do it right, right
Do it with me

Club Sheba Pride Month Edition ✨😎

@Sheba🌺🌺🌺🦋🦋🦋

Good evening Sheba and happy Saturday 😊.

I hope you can enjoy a good bike ride with your hubby and Poppy.

I just finished a plate of pasta, didn’t want to much today.
It’s another hot day, we did get some rain this morning.
This late afternoon, we saw a baby Opossum. Hubby kept seeing what he thought to be rats during the night when he would turn the backyard lights on.
It turned out to be Opossum babies😀. Today we saw in the daylight.
Yesterday we placed half of watermelon cut into pieces, old strawberries and grapes out there.
The Rabbit enjoyed the watermelon, Opossums likes everything.

Have a great weekend Sheba 🚴‍♂️ 🚵‍♀️ 🚴‍♂️🚵‍♀️🚴‍♂️🚵‍♀️🚴‍♂️🚵‍♀️🚴‍♂️🚵‍♀️
