Kenny Loggins rocked last night at the final concert for the season at Hudson Gardens. A very young cowboy and his honey have seen him three years in a row but this, by far, was his best performance. The crowd danced as one to Footloose and loved the newest version of the Grammy Award winning song This is It that he co wrote with Michael McDonald. The highlight for many though was the ballad Forever that he sang on the band’s first encore. As I held Sally close, his words reminded me of how lucky I was to find this special lady nearly forty years ago…how much joy she has brought to my life. Thank you, Sally, you are the sunshine of my life and You Rock just like Kenny and his band!
Now, while we’re here alone
And all is said and done
Now I can let you know
Because of all you’ve shown
I’ve grown enough to tell you
You’ll always be inside of me
How many roads have gone by
So many words left unspoken
I needed to be by your side
If only to hold you
Forever in my heart
Forever we will be
And even when I’m gone
You’ll be here in me
Forever
Once, I dreamed that you were gone
I cried out trying to find you
I begged the dream to fade away
And please awaken me
But night took a hold of my heart
And left me with no one to follow
The love that I lost to the dark
I’ll always remember
Forever in my heart
Forever we will be
And know that when I’m gone
You’ll be here in me
Forever in my heart
You always thought I’d be
I’d be yours
Forever….
