Lyrics of the song, very beautiful and very apt.

Judith Owen - I promise you

In the morning, when I wake dear,
Your memory comforts me.
In the darkness, when I'm frightened,
I can see in my dreams.

Though I'm far dear, though were parted,
I know that time can change nothing.
So if you feel afraid, and if your hope is gone,
Just remember all these things I promise you.

I will move heaven,
I will move hell and earth to be where you are.
I will move heaven,
And it might take my life,
It might take forever,
But I promise you.

As I sail through, stormy seas dear,
You come to still my heart.
As I walk through, a path of danger,
You lead me through the dark.

Though I'm far dear, and though were parted,
I know that time can change nothing.
So if you feel alone, and if your faith is gone,
Just remember all these things I promised you.

I will move heaven,
I will move hell and earth to be where you are.
I will move heaven,
I will move hell and earth to be where you are.
I will move heaven,
And it may take this life,
It may take forever,
I promise you.
I promise you.

Yup - he was a great guy. I met him numerous times and spent a lot of time with, and even competed against him (I let him win!) while I was editor at Rally Sport. Once I even let him drive me while I read the Pace Notes - but he wasn't keen on me driving and him doing the reading. One of the nicest drivers I ever had to deal with.

Nice Vid Chris.

Although he died young, he achieved so much.

Really miss Richard and Michael - the last few years have seen some truly great sportsman lost.

I sat and watched some old videos at the weekend and Richard was on my "British Championship" tape driving a Prodrive Legacy.

Both he and Michael were super people - missed by many.

A real British legend and saddly missed.

Seb loeb would not have it all his own way if Richard was alive today IMHO

Tony

BTW really pee'd off all the hoo haa about George Best, it overshadowed Richards death. Richard would have loved half the chances wonker Bestie wasted

Totaly agree with the quote about george best. He wasted his life and was all over the news when he died. Richard had everything to live for and was hardley mentioned i just saw a bit on teletext bout him.

Rest in Peace richard
