C 2 C Posted March 14, 2019 #36 Share Posted March 14, 2019 I can't imagine living without my wife and cruising partner. Our sincerest condolences. While on Reflection recently they played a song every day that never failed to bring a tear or two. I don't know if the lyrics will be removed but the title does not reflect the mood it inspires: " "If We Were Vampires" It's not the long flowing dress that you're in Or the light coming off of your skin The fragile heart you protected for so long Or the mercy in your sense of right and wrong It's not your hands, searching slow in the dark Or your nails leaving love's watermark It's not the way you talk me off the roof Your questions like directions to the truth It's knowing that this can't go on forever Likely one of us will have to spend some days alone Maybe we'll get forty years together But one day I'll be gone or one day you'll be gone If we were vampires and death was a joke We'd go out on the sidewalk and smoke And laugh at all the lovers and their plans I wouldn't feel the need to hold your hand Maybe time running out is a gift I'll work hard 'til the end of my shift And give you every second I can find And hope it isn't me who's left behind It's knowing that this can't go on forever Likely one of us will have to spend some days alone Maybe we'll get forty years together But one day I'll be gone or one day you'll be gone It's knowing that this can't go on forever Likely one of us will have to spend some days alone Maybe we'll get forty years together But one day I'll be gone or one day you'll be gone" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vtcruising Posted March 14, 2019 #48 Share Posted March 14, 2019 (edited) Mike, Henry and I are so sorry. We really enjoyed Carol on the Nov cruise. I know she probably didn't feel that well, but she was still cracking us up with her dry wit. I am glad that you two got to enjoy the excitement of the Edge and so happy that you were upgraded to the suite. I was just looking at your pictures of the two Edge cruises and was thinking "What a great couple!" You two have brought much pleasure to all of us by sharing your cruises. Hopefully, all of those wonderful photos and commentary about your adventures together will give you some comfort over the difficult times ahead. We will toast you and Carol tonight. Take care and maybe our paths will cross again.... Marilyn Edited March 14, 2019 by vtcruising Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
