Today's song is "Where Do Broken Hearts Go," by Whitney Houston.  Yes, I know it's sappy, but I always liked it, and pre-Bobby Brown Whitney does a superb job with it.  Here are the lyrics:

 

I know it's been some time
But there's something on my mind
You see, I haven't been the same
Since that cold November day...
We said we needed space
But all we found was an empty place
And the only thing I learned
Is that I need you desperately...

 

So here I am
And can you please tell me... oh

 

Chorus:
Where do broken hearts go
Can they find their way home
Back to the open arms
Of a love that's waiting there
And if somebody loves you
Won't they always love you
I look in your eyes
And I know that you still care, for me

 

I've been around enough to know
That dreams don't turn to gold
And that there is no easy way
No you just can't run away...
And what we have is so much more
Than we ever had before
And no matter how I try
You're always on my mind

 

chorus

 

And now that I am here with you
I'll never let you go
I look into your eyes
And now I know, now I know...

 

chorus

In a move that might lead some to question his sanity, Florida governor Charlie Crist is welcoming Andrea, the season's first tropical storm, with open arms. He hopes she'll help quench some of the wildfires threatening to consume his state. Florida and Georgia both need rain--lots of it--to combat the wildfires plaguing the Southeastern US. There's considerable doubt about whether Andrea will be able to deliver, though; forecasters predict that she'll be mostly wind. Andrea may "be a mixed blessing," the governor said Thursday. Amen to that, Governor. Amen to that.
