looking from a window above, it’s like a story of love
can you hear me
came back only yesterday
moving farther away
want you near me
all i needed was the love you gave
all i needed for another day
and all i ever knew
only you
sometimes when i think of her name when it’s only a game
and i need you
listen to the words that you say it’s getting harder to stay
when i see you
all i needed was the love you gave
all i needed for another day
and all i ever knew
only you
this is going to take a long time and i wonder what’s mine
can’t take no more
wonder if you’ll understand
with just the touch of your hand
behind a closed door
all i needed was the love you gave
all i needed for another day
and all i ever knew
only you

Happy Angel Island Day!

To honor the 100th Anniversary of the Angel Island Immigration Station in San Francisco Bay, President Obama officially declared January 21 “National Angel Island Day”:
“One hundred years ago, the Angel Island Immigration Station in San Francisco Bay opened for the first time, and an important chapter of the American narrative began. It would be written by those who walked through the station’s doors over the next three decades. From the cities, villages, and farms of their birth, they journeyed across the Pacific, seeking better lives for themselves and their children. Many arrived at Angel Island, weary but hopeful, only to be unjustly confined for months or, in some cases, years. As we remember their struggle, we honor all who have been drawn to America by dreams of limitless opportunity…” read the rest of the proclamation at whitehouse.gov >>>
