You must remember this
A kiss is just a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh.
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by.
And when two lovers woo
They still say, “I love you.”
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by.
Excerpt from “As Time Goes By”
By Herman Hupfeld
Casablanca (1942)
About Joe
I began my life in the South and for five years lived as a closeted teacher, but am now making a new life for myself as an oral historian in New England. I think my life will work out the way it was always meant to be. That doesn't mean there won't be ups and downs; that's all part of life. It means I just have to be patient. I feel like October 7, 2015 is my new birthday. It's a beginning filled with great hope. It's a second chance to live my life…not anyone else's.
My profile picture is "David and Me," 2001 painting by artist Steve Walker. It happens to be one of my favorite modern gay art pieces.

I'm new to your blog. What a nice match of song lyrics to the picture.

Ok, I admit. I first heard this song on the British comedy "As time goes by". I don't quite get the humor in that show.

Yep. And like Coop, I first heard it on "As Time Goes By"…not the Brits' best sitcom by any means though it had its funny moments. But the song, in this context, is pretty cool.Peace <3Jay

I love Dame Judi Dench in every movie, play, and TV show including "As Time Goes By"!
