• Oh - once in your life you find someone
  Who will turn your world around
  Bring you up when you're feelin' down
  Ya - nothin' could change what you mean to me
  Oh there's lots that I could say
  But just hold me now
  Cause our love will light the way

  Bryan Adams

  Song, Mean, Light

• Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking
  Can't we give ourselves one more chance
  Why can't we give love that one more chance
  Why can't we give love
  Cause love's such an old fashioned word
  and love dares you to care for
  The people on the edge of the night
  And love dares you to change our way of
  Caring about ourselves
  This is our last dance
  This is our last dance
  This is ourselves
  Under pressure

  Freddie Mercury

• I have broken all ties that bind me to the (U.S.) Army, not suddenly, impulsively, but conscientiously and after due deliberation.
