I've been singing this song by Barry Manilow all morning long - it's stuck in my head now! Funny thing - I thought it kind of applied to Scrap Girls message board in a way too! LOL

Just sharing!

You know I can't smile without you
I can't smile without you
I can't laugh and I can't sing
I'm finding it hard to do anything

You see, I feel sad when you're sad
I feel glad when you're glad
If you only knew what I'm going through
I just can't smile without you

You came along just like a song
And brightened my day
Who would have believed
That you were part of a dream
Now it all seems light years away

And now you know I can't smile without you
I can't smile without you
I can't laugh and I can't sing
I'm finding it hard to do anything

You see, I feel sad when you're sad
I feel glad when you're glad
If you only knew what I'm going through
I just can't smile

Now some people say happiness
Takes so very long to find
Well, I'm finding it hard
Leaving your love behind me

And you see I can't smile without you
I can't smile without you
I can't laugh and I can't sing
I'm finding it hard to do anything

You see, I feel glad when you're glad
I feel sad when you're sad
If you only knew what I'm going through
I just can't smile without you

Sara - so funny! When I saw the title of this thread on the MB my head started singing this Barry Manilow song -- even before I saw which one you meant!
Happy day to YOU too.

I haven't heard that in ages. Yes I think it does apply to this wonderful purple place.

As soon as I saw the name Manilow in the title, this song popped in my head. My mother was a big fan when I was little. Thanks for sharing it!

oh gee thanks Sara... now I have "Bermuda Triangle, makes people disappear... Bermuda Triangle, don't go too near, don't go too near" in my head!!!!! My mum still is a big fan, very disappointed when they cancelled his tour here earlier in the year... but there is a performance of Copacabana coming up that she has tickets for, so it is ok, crisis averted!!!

I saw him last year in St. Louis, Jody, and I was just mesmerized by seeing him in person! I've always loved Barry Manilow and seeing him on stage was a huge thing for me, so I know how your mum feels! He was just awesome!
