The Yellow Line of Life

Another one of Fio's country-western songs which she means to score someday.

Been crossin' the yellow line of life
Out of control and fixin' to crash
Hard livin', hard lovin', my darlin', darlin'
Never sure how long I'd last

But give me another chance, my darlin'
I'll put on the brakes and cut my speed
Drive in the slow lane from now on
Because you're the only darlin' I need


Chorus
I'm sittin' at the red light,
Waitin' for the green light
To sleep on your shoulder tonight

Show-off!

Friend Jeanell is writing lyrics for her characters to sing in the musical adaptation of "Gift of the Magi,"  which the heroine in WHERE THE HEART LEADS is directing for the Bosque Bend Theater Guild. (Got all that?)

Anyway, Jeanell is particularly proud of the song she came up with for Della, the wife who sells her hair to buy a watch fob for her husband.

Ta-da:

What would I be if I weren't me?
Maybe a pirate sailing the sea
Maybe a princess, maybe a queen
Maybe an actress on the silver screen
Or maybe I'd be like Nellie Bly
And amuse, amaze, and edify--
But whatever happens, whatever may be
I have you so I'm glad I'm me
