Recently I visited my sister Sarah, @sdkelly, up in Massachusetts, USA, where we played a couple of shows, sang together on #mspwaves radio's Sounds of Steem 2 hosted by @isaria, @krystle, and @aggroed, and also recorded this song for open mic week 77.
It's about prevailing love, and was written the year that two of my older sisters celebrated 25 years of marriage, and my parents celebrated 50 years.
My parents have almost nothing in common in terms of interests, and even at times, their outlook on life, but somehow they've their relationship work, and it's a hilarious and beautiful thing to watch, so this goes out to them.
Thank you @krystle, @soundlegion, @passion-ground, @verbal-d, and @meno for all of your hard work, and to @luzcypher and @pfunk for sponsoring open mic.
And my apologies to @meno, who convinced me just last night that our real lives and life here on steemit are pretty much one in the same. (I made this video and introduced my sister before learning this!)
Lyrics:
25 years of your rock and roll
25 years and you've got my soul
Between the two of us we make a whole
You've got to do what you've gotta do
To survive
And rolling stones they roam and roam
And love is gonna find them and bring 'em home
And rolling stones they roam and roam
And love is gonna find them and bring 'em home
25 years of your fire and ice
Day and night and your advice
25 years and it's been so nice
You've got to say what you've gotta say
To survive
And rolling stones they roam and roam
And love is gonna find them and bring 'em home
And rolling stones they roam and roam
And love is gonna find them and bring 'em home
25 years well that ain't so long
My folks went 50 and they're going strong
So here's to 50 more that go on and on
You've got to be what you've gotta be
To survive
And rolling stones they roam and roam
And love is gonna find them and bring 'em home
And rolling stones they roam and roam
And love is gonna find them and bring 'em home
Well love is gonna get you, love is gonna get you
Love is gonna get you and bring you home
Love is gonna get you, love is gonna get you
Love is gonna get you and bring you home
