May she will stay
Resting in my arms again

I may not always love you
but long as there are stars above you
you'll never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it
god only knows what I'd be without you...

Four strong winds that blow lonely
Seven seas that run high
All those things that don't change
Come what may

Tra-la, it's May
The lusty month of May
That darling month when everyone throws
Self-control away
It's time to do
A wretched thing or two
And make each merry little day
One you'll always rue

(Lerner/Loewe, from "Camelot")

This year has been a little crazy for the Andersons
You may recall we had some trouble last year
The robot council had us banished to an asteroid
That hasn't undermined our holiday cheer

May he turn 21 on the base at Fort Bliss
Just today he sat down to the flask in his fist,

In the merry month of may
From my home I started...

Rocky Road to Dublin

Sylvia said...

While strolling through the park one day
In the merry merry month of May
I was taken by surprise
By a pair of roguish eyes
In a moment my poor heart was stole away

No idea where I heard it -- it's old

Once there was a thing called spring
When the world was writing verses
Like yours and mine
All the boys and girls would sing
When we sat at little tables
And drank May wine
Now April May and June
Are sadly out of tune
Life has stuck a pin in my balloon

(Rodgers/Hart, "Spring is Here")

Although he may not
be the man some
girls think of
as handsome...

May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be bright

He may send you flowers, baby
Every single day
Buy you fancy clothes from Paris
And have sweet things to say
But I can give you love, sweet sweet love
Now ain't that just a little bit better

Sandra Dodd said...

Oh madam in your face is beauty
On your lips red roses grow
If I may not be your lover
Madam will you let me go
Oh no, John, no John, no John, no!

Traditional song from a few hundred years ago

Out on the new horizon
You may see the floating motion of a distant pair of wings

May there always be sunshine
May there always be blue skies
May there always be Mamma
May there always be me

-Russian folk song, or so we've heard from Jim Gill, who performs a version of it on one of his children's albums
