Ahhhh!! I remembered it!

Ever get a partial lyric from a song in your head and cannot remember the full song? That happened to me today. I had this song in my head that ended with the word, "always", and I couldn't remember the damn song...until now.

Sunshine on my Shoulders by John Denver.

Whew!!! It was driving me nuts all day.

I remember being a kid in the 70s and this song moved me to tears... still does.

He was one of the few "celebrities"I have cried for when he passed...

Walk all the Days by Black 47.

The phrase "stagger at night" somehow became "stagger and leap" and I couldn't find the song for YEARS.

Doesn’t help name the ear worm, I guess.
