there is a tree on allenford
I drive by it each day on my way to and from work
and there are always flowers left there each day
left for a child who died there
or so that is what people say...
but all i see
looks back at me
loved by someone, loved by someone
loved by someone, loved by someone
and the golden thread of nature of this is
simply that we are a part of everything
that will ever exist.
to be loved is why we've come.
every drop of rain that fell or falls
is always falling
on and on and on and on.
come into me
and we'll always be
oved by someone, loved by someone
loved by someone, loved by someone
there's nothing that has ever been
that isn't loved
by someone who waits
to be loved again
loved by someone, loved by someone
loved by someone, loved by someone

cute
I like this one as well as her sailer song but yeah can be a bit comatosive
It made me stop working and look confirm it was RLJ.... I think I like it.
.
At least this is better than the other song from her I've heard here.Something about being in America. She still sounds all stuffy nosed though...
war is over ...if you want it.
I thought this was Jill Sobule at first.
Blech! 
Beautiful stuff as usual from Rickie Lee!
The vocals on this song seem to make it drag along.
Ugg. Can do without this singer.
