Missing Him

Some lyrics from my favorite and least favorite song in "Working". It's a beautiful piece, with moving lyrics, and our director has staged it so beautifully. But I can't watch it, or listen to it, because I have to be on stage immediately after, and I can't very well go on sobbing. It doesn't help that the guy who sings it looks like a 20 year old version of my own father. I miss him every time I hear this song.

He was my hero then,
He couldn't do no wrong as far as I was concerned,
I thought he was the wisest, and the strongest, and the best of men,
The tables hadn't turned,
I hadn't learned,
How little time it takes,
Everybody breaks,
And daddies make mistakes.



Just thought I'd share that before going to sleep.

Love to all,
Lissa Hoarn

  1. It sounds like the Daigneault pride we all get from Grandma. I hate having it, but have tried to conquer it, but it still will get the best of me at times. I truly hope you are happy in your life and that you and John can reconcile some day.
