Love 'til you Love it away...

"What can you do with your days but work & hope
Let your dreams bind your work to your play
What can you do with each moment of your life
But love til you've loved it away
Love til you've loved it away"

These beautiful passionate words were written by Bob Franke for a wedding, and it's been a favorite song of mine for a long time. Here is a link for the whole song. This song truly speaks to living your passion. If you can not tie your dreams with your daily job, then do it in the other hours. Those dreams are not mere wishes... they are passions that have been placed in your being as a gift. Use them and you will find love and happiness.

I tagged the song with the Wabash Cannonball in a medley that goes back over thirty years to when I heard Art Theime do it up in folk festival in the U.P. He was a routine artist over at the Golden Ring Folklore Center in my hometown of Manitowoc.

Here it is in the key of D... the key that is the easiest on my paltry voice.
