Time goes by so slowly

At one time today, Reenie and I thought we detected a flicker of consciousness from Mary.  We talked to her but could not confirm any real connection which is the realistic position given hepatic encephalopathy.  The doctors are a bit surprised she is still with us and expect the end soon.


I did find "our song" on my iPhone and played it for Mary.  Unchained Melody was our song when we dated in college from 1965 to the winter of 1968.  And, it is the song that hit the pop charts again when it was used for the movie Ghost in 1990.  Many folks don't comprehend the words, so I thought I'd post them for you here.

Oh, my love
my darling
I've hungered for your touch
a long lonely time
and time goes by so slowly
and time can do so much
are you still mine?
I need your love
I need your love
Godspeed your love to me

Lonely rivers flow to the sea,
to the sea
to the open arms of the sea
lonely rivers sigh 'wait for me, wait for me'
I'll be coming home wait for me

Oh, my love
my darling
I've hungered for your touch
a long lonely time
and time goes by so slowly
and time can do so much
are you still mine?
I need your love
I need your love
Godspeed your love to me
