    Roy Orbison - Crying



    Ah wis awe richt fur a wee while
    Ah could smile for a wee while,
    When I seen ye last nicht
    Ye held ma haun sae ticht
    As ye stoaped tae say hello
    Och ye wished me well ye coudnae tell

    That I'd bin greetin oer you,
    greetin oer you
    Then ye said "am away"
    left me staunin alane
    Alane and greetin, greetin, greetin,greetin,greetn, greetin
    It's hard tae understaun but the touch of yer haun
    Can stert me greetin

    Possibly

    Although Rabbie was a far more loveable rascal.

    He is national bard because his songs and poems speak through the centuries about the human condition. He wrote against blood sports and environmental vandalism, he wrote about love and friendship.


    He also in one of his naughtier moments wrote a song called "nine inch will please a lady"



    He was a man for all seasons.

    Rabbie was not always the lovable rogue. He was treated as an oucast for a while because of his sympathy for the French Revolution.

    and wasn't he a whoremaster?
    On a given day or given circumstance, you think you have a limit.
    And you then go for this limit and you touch this limit and you think "Ok, this is the limit".
    As soon as you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further.
    With your mind power, your determination, your instinct and the experience as well, you can fly very high.

    For the right price, I suppose
    On a given day or given circumstance, you think you have a limit.
    And you then go for this limit and you touch this limit and you think &quot;Ok, this is the limit&quot;.
    As soon as you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further.
