This old heart of mine been broke a thousand times
Each time you break away, I fear you've gone to stay
Lonely nights that come, memories that come, bringing you back again
Hurting me more and more
Maybe it's my mistake to show this love I feel inside
'Cause each day that passes by you got me
Never knowing if I'm coming or going, 'cuse I, I love you
Yes I do, I love you
This old heart, is weak for you
I try hard to hide my hurt inside
This old heart of mine keeps me cryin'
The way you treat me, leaves me incomplete
I'm here for the day, gone for a week
But if you leave me a hundred times
A hundred times I want you back
I'm yours whenever you want me
Tell them all about it, shout all about it
That I love you
This old heart, is weak for you
I love

Sing In The City are chasing dreams, making memories and have music, social, community and friendship at the heart of everything that they do.

Old Travel Blog Photograph Golf Course Aboyne Scotland

Old travel Blog photograph of the golf course in Aboyne, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. The golf club started life as a nine-hole course on the village green as early as 1881. Aboyne has a colourful history as is evident from Aboyne Castle, which adjoins the golf course. The current course relocated next to the Castle and was designed by renowned golf architect Archie Simpson. The front nine holes are wooded parkland surrounding Aboyne Loch. Thereafter, the course changes to heathland built on the unique terrain and topography of 'Rigg & Furrows' of ancient farming which took place on the land during medieval times. The layout of Aboyne golf course remained virtually the same from 1913 until the new holes were added in 1990 by renowned golf course architect Martin Hawtree. The course was reconstructed with the present 18 holes stretching over 6,033 yards opening in August 1991.

Old Travel Blog Photograph Lifeboat Arbroath Scotland

Old travel Blog photograph of the Lifeboat in Arbroath, Angus, Scotland. Arbroath lifeboat station was established in 1803 and is one of the oldest in Scotland. The first lifeboat was built by Henry Greathead, who in 1789 had built the Original which was the first boat to be designed and built for the purpose of saving life from shipwreck. In 1865 the station was taken over by the R.N.L.I., and a new boathouse built at East Grimsby. In 1932 a new boathouse and slipway were built on the south side of the harbour for the station's first motor lifeboat. In August 1968 an inshore lifeboat station was established with a D class lifeboat. In 1986 an extension to the boathouse was completed, providing a new boat store for the D class and improved crew facilities. In 1993 the boathouse and slipway were modified for the station's new Mersey class lifeboat and in 1997 an extension to the slipway was completed.

Old Travel Blog Photograph Drymen Bridge Scotland

Old travel Blog photograph of Drymen Bridge, originally built in 1765, which carries the A811 across the Endrick Water a little to the south of Drymen, Scotland. The bridge consists of 5 arches in the local red sandstone. Only two of the arches cross the river, the central one and that to the south of centre, the remaining three being flood arches. The bridge is built of regular blocks, shaped like rubble, with ashlar arch rings and a cornice line at road level. The central arch is further embellished by being flanked with semi circular piers rising from the cutwaters, suggesting that originally it may have been the only arch to span the water.

Tour Scotland Travel Photograph Puffins Isle Of Mull

Tour Scotland travel photograph of Puffins on Isle of Mull, Scotland. A small auk, puffins are familiar as the " clowns " of the coast with their brightly coloured bills, bumpy landings and waddling walk. Puffins live in burrows in the short grass at the top of cliffs and feed on fish, such as sandeels, which they catch at sea by diving beneath the surface and using their wings to swim in pursuit. For most of the year puffins are out at sea, returning to land to breed. During the breeding season, displays of bill knocking and ritualised walking will result in mating pairs producing one egg, which is laid at the end of the burrow. The chick remains in the burrow until it is independent and ready to go to sea. Puffins come ashore in Scotland from late April until the middle of-August. July is the peak month to see adults with beak loads of fish coming in to feed chicks. Some of the best places to see them are the Treshnish Isles off Mull, Handa in west Sutherland, Hoy on the Orkney Islands, Noss and Hermaness on the Shetland Islands, the Isle of May in Fife and the Farne Islands just across the border in Northumberland, England.
