“Oh, It is Love”
~Hellogoodbye
Oh, it is love
From the first time I set my eyes up on yours
Thinking oh, is it love?
Oh dear
It’s been hardly a moment
And you are already missed
There is still a bit of your skin
That I’ve yet to have kissed
Oh say please do not go
But you know, oh, you know that I must
Oh [...]

“I Will Follow You Into The Dark”
by: Death Cab for Cutie
Love of mine some day you will die
But I’ll be close behind
I’ll follow you into the dark
No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark
If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the [...]

last night was interesting and provoked much to stir in my head. on my way home, i was listening to a mix station and this song came on. it’s a well known song and i’ve always liked it, but the lyrics hit me today in a new way i’ve never thought of.

“Feels Like Home” by Chantal Kreviazuk
Somethin’ in your eyes, makes me wanna lose myself
Makes me wanna lose myself, in your arms
There’s somethin’ in your voice, makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts, the rest of my life
If you knew how lonely my life has been
And how long I’ve been so alone
And if you knew [...]

i’m feeling like a sap today.  so i thought i would post this song… it’s sweet and takes me to a more optimistic place.
sometimes i wonder about the girls that inspire songs like this.  do i pass them on the street?  what stories lie beneath the crafted notes and chords?  i’ve had a few boys [...]

BLUE LIGHT
You’ll find it hiding in shadows
You’ll find it hiding in cupboards
It will walk you home safe every night
It will help you remember
If that’s way it is
Then that’s the way it is
I still feel you and the taste of cigarettes
What could I ever run to
Just tell me it’s tearing you apart
Just tell me you cannot [...]

wrestled trying to get to sleep last night. too many thoughts to allow my mind to rest. i’ve never been one to like too many options. . . but at any rate, it’s crucial that one makes the decisions necessary to maximize each day with what really matters. i’m glad that [...]

i’ve always liked this song, but it stuck out to me while organizing my itunes today, so i thought it appropriate to post…

here are the lyrics to the song that was so beautifully sung at church by a couple from utah… i have always loved the tune - it was so touching and it’s been in my head since yesterday morning. . .
Come thou fount of every blessing
Tune my heart to sing thy grace
Streams [...]

this song is a favorite of someone that was a dear friend of mine. the song has been in my head lately….
Blackbird

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes [...]
