Seven Wonders

Fleetwood Mac

So long ago
Certain time
Certain place
You touched my hand
All the way
All the way down to emmiline
But if our paths never cross
Well you know I’m sorry but
If I live to see the seven wonders
Ill make a path to the rainbows end
Ill never live to match the beauty again
The rainbows end

So its hard to find
Someone with that kind of intensity
You touched my hand I played it cool
And you reached out your hand for me
But if our paths never cross
Well you know I’m sorry but
If I live to see the seven wonders
Ill make a path to the rainbows end
Ill never live to match the beauty again
The rainbows end

So long ago
Its a certain time
Its a certain place
You touched my hand and you smiled
All the way back you held out your hand
If I hope and I pray
Ooh it might work out someday
If I live to see the seven wonders
Ill make a path to the rainbows end
Ill never live to match the beauty again
The rainbows end

If I live to see the seven wonders
Ill make a path to the rainbows end
Ill never live to match the beauty again

If I live to see the seven wonders
Ill make a path to the rainbows end
Ill never live to match the beauty again

Had a Bad Day

Only God Knows Why

I have signed up to do NaBloPoMo for the month of May. The theme is Voices. Not really sure why I am taking on this challenge at such a busy time of the school year, but I did-aaahhhhh! I’m also not sure what I am going to do with this theme. My thoughts on this theme: songs I love or that mean something to me, Out of the Mouths of Babes, or Quotes. I plan on recording Patch, my 11 year old dalmatian, talking and singing in the near future. I also may just post everyday and not worry about the theme. Any ideas, thoughts, or suggestions? Here is a post re-visited for ya!

Kid Rock – Only God Knows Why

Landslide

Fleetwood Mac

I took my love, I took it down
Climbed a mountain and I turned around
I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
till the landslide brought me down

Oh, mirror in the sky
What is love
Can the child within my heart rise above
Can I sail thru the changing ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life

Well, I’ve been afraid of changing
cause I’ve built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I’m getting older too

Oh, take my love, take it down
Climb a mountain and turn around
If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide will bring it down

If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well maybe the landslide will bring it down

I love this song. My best friend and I always play it! It fits her to a T! And she can sing it wonderfully!

My Head Held High

Kid Rock – Only God Knows Why
 *Explicit Lyrics*

“Only God Knows Why”

I’ve been sittin here
Tryin to find myself
I get behind myself
I need to rewind myself
Lookin for the payback
Listen for the playback
They say that every man bleeds just like me
And I feel like number one
Yet I’m last in line
I watch my youngest son
And it helps to pass the time
I take too many pills it helps to ease the pain
I made a couple of dollar bills, but still I feel the same
Everybody knows my name
They say it way out loud
A lot of folks f*** with me
It’s hard to hang out in crowds
I guess that’s the price you pay
To be some big shot like I am
Out stretched hands and one night stands
Still I can’t find love
And when your walls come tumbling down
I will always be around
Yeah
As it…hey
And when your walls come tumbling down
I will always be around
People don’t know about the things I say and do
They don’t understand about the shit that I’ve been through
It’s been so long since I’ve been home
I’ve been gone, I’ve been gone for way too long
Maybe I forgot all things I miss
Oh somehow I know there’s more to life than this
I said it too many times
And I still stand firm
You get what you put in
And people get what they deserve
Still I ain’t seen mine
No I ain’t seen mine
I’ve been giving just ain’t been gettin
I’ve been walking that there line
So I think I’ll keep a walking
With my head held high
I’ll keep moving on and only God knows why
Only God
Only God
Only God knows why, why, why, why
Only God…knows…why, why, why
Only God knows why
Take me to the river edge
Take me to the river, hey hey hey

I absolutely love this song.  It has sooo many truths to it!  It is also a good rock-n-roll jammin’ song.  I love blarin this song with the windows down and singing right along with it.  I am the best darn singer around when I am in my car.  I’m not too bad at car-dancing either.  Anywho-this song  just brings all sorts of feelings to surface for me and lets me let it all out.  I can listen to it every day.  I just jam away and forget about everything around me.  I think about keeping my head held high and not worrying about everybody else-because they don’t have a clue-ONLY GOD KNOWS WHY!
