Dear Frankie

(When I was a young girl I used to dream of a lover
To be my shining knight of strength one day
He'd carry me to a castle in the heavens and battle all my dragons on the way
And he'd ride down on a great white horse he'd bring me love I was longing for
He'd bring me joy and lasting peace on a great white horse he'd ride away with me
Singing dum-di-de-dum-dum-dum-di-de-dum)

When I was a young man I used to dream of a maiden
With long soft hair flowing in the wind
Her laughing eyes and loving arms would follow
When I'd sail around the world and back again
And I'd ride down on a great white horse I'd bring the love she was longing for
I'd bring her laughter and sunny days
And on a great white horse I'd carry her away
Singing dum-di-de-dum-dum-dum-di-de-dum

(The time has flown I find there are no dragons) and I don't wanna sail the seven seas
(Anywhere we are becomes our castle) and the only world I want is here with me
And we both ride on a great white horse we found the love we were longing for
(You're my sunshine on a rainy day) you're my April you're my May
Singing dum-di-de-dum-dum-dum-di-de-dum
Singing dum-di-de-dum-dum-dum-di-de-dum
Singing dum-di-de-dum-dum-dum-di-de-dum

Have seen this one before, liked it then. Still like it very, very much now.

It's funny after I watched the movie, I started to have a vague dream image of a port far far away in the north, where it might be cold and the sea doesn't need to be all blue and warm. But there is a big ship that travels around the world, like Frankie's "friend" Da. When it docks on that port, there will be a happy family. And all the waiting is worthwhile.

I could not stop my tears. I have a plan, but its execution needs me to be really strong, free of depression. Hope I'll get there.

“The Cider House Rules"

The sweetest story that broke my heart. A calm yet powerful portrait of love and cruelty of life, of tears and hopes.

"Good night, you princesses of Maine, you kings of new England".
