What year is it? 1992? or 2007?

Baby sneezes
Mommy pleases
Daddy breezes in
So good on paper
So romantic
But so bewildering

I know nothing stays the same
But if you're willing to play the game
It's coming around again

So don't mind if I fall apart
There's more room in a broken heart

You pay the grocer
Fix the toaster
Kiss the host Good-bye
Then you break a window
burn the Soufflé
Scream a lullaby

I know nothing stays the same
But if you're willing to play the game
It's coming around again
So don't mind if I fall apart
There's more room in a broken heart

And I believe in love
But what else can I do
I'm so in love with you

I know nothing stays the same
But if you're willing to play the game
It's coming around again

I know nothing stays the same
But if you're willing to play the game
It's coming around again
So don't mind if I fall apart
There's more room in a broken heart


For whatever reason, this song popped into my head after the big Cavs win today. It feels like my college days in 1992-93, the heart of the Price/Daughtery/Nance era. A team that is probably not talented enough to win the title playing their heart out and teasing you so. You want to believe, you think it may be enough to win - and yet they lose - not unexpectedly - to teh Bulls.
The Cavs this year are a good team, but the supporting cast around LeBron may not be good enough. However, there are enough glimpses of light and minutes of great play - the defense this year has been solid, Gooden is a force, if Pavlovic gets hot..... that you think it could happen. Maybe they can do this!!!

The effort is there. Are the wins? One more win now to get to the Conference finals, where (probably) a Detroit team awaits. A Detroit team that we were one offensive rebound away from beating in 6 games last year...

I know nothing stays the same
But if you're willing to play the game
It's coming around again

I do believe, I do believe....I believe in love.....
