I LOVE YOU.

Nawar ... how come no-one has mentioned Nawar?

But the saying goes: It ain't over until the fat lady sings. Well, you all go ahead and sing first, and then I'll go and get a fat lady to sing. How's that?

[Kitosdad]

Ooopppps.

Kitos.

Hi,

As a great admirer of the singer Maurice Chevalier I will make a brave attempt to give a rendition of the first stanza of the poem by Mister Bill:

Every song I ever sang,
I sang it just for you.
And every time I wrote a poem,
Each time I thought of you.
'Cos I love you,
Yes,I love you,
Yes,I love you,
Yes, I do.

Thank you for listening and now I will go and lie down in a darkened room.

Alain

Alan, that was great! Well, I'm still searching for a fat lady willing to sing a stanza, but so far no luck. I'm sure, though, by the time Bill has honored us with his singing voice, I'll have found a fat lady to sing for us.

Hi Bill,

Now that I've made a complete fool of myself and accepted the challenge, I think you should sing.

OK, I'll just have my dinner first. Can't warble on an empty stomach.

I'm truly sorry about my microphone going on the blink. But I will get a new one and sing this damned poem for you, I promise.

Bill.

Hi Bill,

I think your excuse about having a dodgy microphone is pretty feeble. Remember that once you have warbled, as you say, then we shall be able to enjoy Claudia singing.

I know, I know, just give me time to find another headset. I have one somewhere.

Hi Bill, Alan and everybody,

It's nice to read your conversations, really. I think that sooner or later a lovely voice will appear here on this website and sing Bill's poem. And, hopefully, those words will reach the ears of Bill's beloved lady !
My sincere compliments to Bill : how you are young and rich inside

Huong.

[Kitosdad]

Good evening Huong, and welcome to our thread. Your English is faultless, and I'm sure you could spend some fruitful moments here.

How very nice to see a newcomer who is already proficient in English.

Can you sing as well as you look?

Bill.

Hi All
What a magic words I feel like I read a love story; anyway it's nice to read such words.
Best Regards

[Kitosdad]

"it would be really neat if you composed a little melody to these lyrics, and then played it with your guitar or piano or whatever".

Claudia, wonders will never cease. I have composed a little melody for the poem, and I will enrapture your shell-like ears with it as soon as I get fixed up with a new headset.

I don't play any instrument, but I will do my best to sing better than Maurice.

Bill.
