forever young

as you all know, last night we bid farewell to the Bravermans
admittedly, i cried at some point in every single episode of Parenthood that i watched 
along with the rest of America
i'm assuming that everyone watches this show, of course

the shows theme song is "Forever Young" and it is one of my all time favorites
and i'm pretty certain I am not alone in that.
GT didn't always watch the show with me, but i could always count on him to pipe in when the introduction started with "May God bless and keep you always" in his best Bob Dylan voice

on that (Forever Young) note, have you seen Young@Heart?
i can't remember if i've mentioned this film before, but i simply love it
it's a documentary about a senior citizens choir that sings pop/rock songs and it is beautifully done.

this clip isn't from the film, but i found it on YouTube
this gets me all kinds of weepy

this clip is from the film and it is, without doubt, my favorite scene


i hope that you have a wonderful weekend and remember to say Forever Young

May God bless and keep you always 
May your wishes all come true
May you always do for others 
And let others do for you
May you build a ladder to the stars 
And climb on every rung
May you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young 
May you stay forever young.

May you grow up to be righteous 
May you grow up to be true
May you always know the truth 
And see the lights surrounding you
May you always be courageous 
Stand upright and be strong
May you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young 
May you stay forever young.

May your hands always be busy 
May your feet always be swift
May you have a strong foundation 
When the winds of changes shift
May your heart always be joyful 
And may your song always be sung
May you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young 
May you stay forever young
