Marshall Crenshaw Whenever You're on My Mind & Our Town
I love this song and it takes me back to a time when i thought i had it figured out, but years of mistakes and falling down and getting up again make this even more special to me. God bless you Terria for making this our song again!
I was told one day that I mattered I was also told that I had something to give Then i read my own press clippings And forgot was being hungry was all about
When i lost my drive and power Stalled aside the roadway of my life I hugged myself and praised my existance while the cars all passed me by
Moving with the flow of things has never been my style to run against the grain and opposition being questioned all the while
The past has embittered me yet made me better than before by living and falling,dropping and stalling my lessons are learned at quite the cost
I dont read much anymore I think to replace my hardbound prophecies I miss my guru and and fight to pull through the mediocrity that I almost allowed
I fight no more meaningless battles of self or from foe the lifes true lessons have given me everything I need to know
And strike back the letters the poems on my soul A song to sing, that love did bring me back to where it all started
I embark on new beginnings not new anymore but new to me I circumvent my yesterdays misgivings by confronting them when i walk
This mind embattled with ADHD This body of seek and destroy with pain This soul of giving and kinder days This is your Husband and your MAN

ReplyDeleteI was told one day that I mattered
I was also told that I had something to give
Then i read my own press clippings
And forgot was being hungry was all about
When i lost my drive and power
Stalled aside the roadway of my life
I hugged myself and praised my existance
while the cars all passed me by
Moving with the flow of things
has never been my style
to run against the grain and opposition
being questioned all the while
The past has embittered me
yet made me better than before
by living and falling,dropping and stalling
my lessons are learned at quite the cost
I dont read much anymore
I think to replace my hardbound prophecies
I miss my guru and and fight to pull through
the mediocrity that I almost allowed
I fight no more meaningless battles
of self or from foe
the lifes true lessons
have given me everything I need to know
And strike back the letters
the poems on my soul
A song to sing, that love did bring
me back to where it all started
I embark on new beginnings
not new anymore but new to me
I circumvent my yesterdays misgivings
by confronting them when i walk
This mind embattled with ADHD
This body of seek and destroy with pain
This soul of giving and kinder days
This is your Husband and your MAN
