"Clear Day" - Hope Sandoval

 

It's a clear day out

It's a clear day out

It's a clear day out

It's a clear day out

 

Gonna find all your troubles

Gonna send them away

Gonna make you feel happy

Gonna be what you say

 

It's a clear day out

It's a clear day out

It's a clear day out

It's a clear day out

 

Gonna walk through your doorway

Gonna be what you say

Gonna take all your troubles

Gonna kiss them away 

 

Clear

 

It's a clear day

It's a clear day

It's a clear day

It's a clear day

Yes, abcd - you’re awesome I’m depressed and tend to dwell on negative stuff to make myself even more miserable.

 

This one coming up is for you, Estee.

"When The Sand Runs Out" - Rascal Flatts

I spent the morning at an old friend's grave

Flowers and Amazing Grace, he was a good man

He spent his whole life spinning his wheels

Never knowing how the real thing feels

He never took a chance or took the time to dance

 

And I stood there thinking as I said goodbye

Today's the first day of the rest of my life

 

[CHORUS:]

I'm gonna stop looking back and start moving on

And learn how to face my fears

Love with all of my heart and make my mark

I wanna leave something here

Go out on a ledge without any net

That's what I'm gonna be about

Yeah I wanna be running

When the sand runs out

 

Cause people do it every day

Promise themselves they're gonna change, I've been there

But I'm changing from the inside out

That was then and this is now

I'm a new man, yeah, I'm a brand new man

 

And when they carve my stone they'll write these words

"Here lies a man who lived life for all that its worth"

 

[CHORUS]

 

And as the cold wind blows across the graveyard

I think I hear the voice of my old friend whisper in my ear

 

I'm gonna stop looking back and start moving on

And learn how to face my fears

Love with all of my heart and make my mark

I wanna leave something here

Go out on a ledge without any net

That's what I'm gonna be about

Yeah I wanna be running

When the sand runs out

 

I wanna be running

When the sand runs out

Mm hmm, yes I will

Thank you so much, abcd

 

Beautiful song. I’ve suffered so much since 2014. It’s unbelievable.

 

There’s nothing worse than kindling. Nothing worse.

"You Are Not Alone" - Mavis Staples

 

http://tomwalkerphotography.com/Panda0024(3).jpg

 

You're not alone

I'm with you

I'm lonely too

What's that song

Can't be sung by two

 

A broken home

A broken heart

Isolated and afraid

Open up this is a raid

I wanna get it through to you

You're not alone

 

You're not alone

Every night

I stand in your place

Every tear on every face

Tastes the same

 

A broken dream

A broken heart

Isolated and afraid

Open up this is a raid

I'm gonna get it through to you

You're not alone

 

An open hand

An open heart

There's no need to be afraid

Open up this is a raid

I wanna get it through to you

You're not alone

 

I wanna get it through to you

You're not alone

I'm gonna get it through to you

You're not alone

"Clear Day" - Hope Sandoval

 

It's a clear day out

It's a clear day out

It's a clear day out

It's a clear day out

 

Gonna find all your troubles

Gonna send them away

Gonna make you feel happy

Gonna be what you say

 

It's a clear day out

It's a clear day out

It's a clear day out

It's a clear day out

 

Gonna walk through your doorway

Gonna be what you say

Gonna take all your troubles

Gonna kiss them away 

 

Clear

 

It's a clear day

It's a clear day

It's a clear day

It's a clear day

 

Wonderful lyrics, abcd

Should post less, listen more. Like the AA folk say.

I don’t know how they say it in English. To keep silent and listen to oldtimers.

The Dalai Lama says pretty much the same:

" Save My Soul"

Jacob Bryant

 

 

" Save My Soul"

 

There was a time, in my life.

Just me and the devil in a round and round fight.

Lost in that damn bottle with no place to go.

Toss and turn, sleepless nights.

Sweat on my pillow, and pain in my eyes.

Hoping for a miracle.

Come and set me free.

Tell me who will save my soul.

Stuck here down this dead end road.

Heart beating fast like a freight train running.

No matter what i do the devil's coming.

Who will save my soul?

So far gone that i can't find home.

Yeah, Oh Oh.

Save my soul.

Deep down under my skin, I felt the demons writing down on my sins.

And you're the only one who will ever know.

And in the dark, you were the light.

Through all of my lows and all my high nights.

Praying for a miracle.

Come and set me free.

Tell me who will save my soul.

Stuck here down this dead end road.

Heart beating fast like a freight train running.

No matter what i do the devil's coming.

Who will save my soul?

So far gone that i can't find home.

Yeah, Oh Oh.

Save my soul.

Heart beating fast like a freight train running.

No matter what i do the devil's coming.

Who will save my soul?

So far gone that i can't find home.

Yeah, Oh Oh.

Save my soul.

Save my soul

" Ordinary World"

Joy Williams

 

https://youtu.be/3jSFNJ8C3ZI

 

"Ordinary World"

 

Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue

Thought I heard you talking softly

I turned on the lights, the TV, and the radio

Still I can't escape the ghost of you

What has happened to it all?

Crazy someone say

Where is the life that I recognize?

Gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday

There's an ordinary world

Somehow I have to find

And as I try to make my way

To the ordinary world

I will learn to survive

Passion or coincidence once prompted you to say

"Pride will tear us both apart"

Well now prides gone out the window

Cross the rooftops, run away

Left me in the vacuum of my heart

What is happening to me?

Crazy someone say

Where is my friend when I need you most?

Gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday

There's an ordinary world

Somehow I have to find

And as I try to make my way

To the ordinary world

I will learn to survive

Papers in the roadside tell of suffering and greed

Fear today, forgot tomorrow

Besides the news of holy war and holy need

Ours is just a little sorrowed talk

And I don't cry for yesterday

There's an ordinary world

Somehow I have to find

And as I try to make my way

To the ordinary world

I will learn to survive

Every world is my world

(I will learn to survive)

Any world is my world

(I will learn to survive)

Any world is my world

" Late For Your Life"

Mary Chapin Carpenter

 

https://youtu.be/Da2-DqOGb6M

 

"Late For Your Life"

 

You've been saying for the longest time that the time has come

You've been talking like you're of a mind to get some changing done

Maybe move out of the city, find some quiet little town

Where you can sit out on your back porch step

And watch the sun go down

No one knows where they belong

The search just goes on and on and on

For every choice that ends up wrong

Another one's right

A change of scene would sure be great

The thought is nice to contemplate

But the question begs why would you wait

And be late for your life

 

Now you might never find that perfect town

But the sun still sets on a rooftop where the city

Sounds like a Gershwin clarinet

And you might still be searching every face for one you can't forget

Love is out there in a stranger's clothes

You just haven't met him yet

No one knows where they belong

The search just goes on and on and on

For every day that ends up wrong

Another one's right

Call it chance or call it fate

Either one is cause to celebrate

Still the question begs why would you wait

And be late for your life

 

Call it chance baby, call it fate

Either one is cause to celebrate

And the question now is why would you wait

Don't be late for your life

 

❤️

" Till Forever"

Joy Williams

 

https://youtu.be/EdMZUVkuz80

 

"Till Forever"

 

It's all over

And it's only beginning

We're beginning to finally see one another

We grow stronger

We grow stronger for breaking

We grow stronger for breaking apart together

 

Love, find me underneath the covers

We will stay here until we discover

All that we have to give to each other

Til forever

 

How you move me

How you move me to love you

I keep choosing to love you again every morning

 

Love, find me underneath the covers

We will stay here until we discover

All that we have to give to each other

Til forever

 

Take this body, I give it all for you

Hold me, touch me, when you make your move

 

Let me lay here beside you

We can stay here and not say a word

 

Love, find me underneath the covers

We will stay here until we discover

All that we have to give to each other

Til forever

Til forever

 

❤️❤️❤️

"I Don't Even Know Myself"

The Who

 

There's nothing in the way I walk

That could tell you where I'm going

There's nothing in the words I speak

That can betray anything I'm knowing

 

Don't think about the way I dress

You can fit me on a labeled shelf

Don't pretend that you know me

Cause I don't even know myself

Ooh I don't know myself

 

I don't mind if you try once in a while

I don't mind if I cry once in a while

The doors aren't shut as tight as they might seem

I'm just trying to fight my way out of this dream

 

Don't listen to the words I say

Weighing up if I'm enlightened

Don't shiver as you pass me by

Cause, Mister, I'm the one who's frightened

 

The police just came and left

They wanted me and no one else

Don't pretend that you know me

Cause I don't even know myself

I said I don't know myself

 

I don't mind if you try once in a while

I don't mind if I cry once in a while

The doors aren't shut as tight as they might seem

I'm just trying to fight my way out of this dream

 

Do you remember me

I don't remember you

Do you still love me

You know I think you do

 

I have been gone

And some prison warden knows my scream

I'm just trying to fight my way out of this dream

 

There's only five who know my new name

My mother don't believe they know it

What she called me is the way I'm staying

And no one will ever know it

 

Come on all of you big boys

Come on all of you elves

Don't pretend that you know me

Cause I don't even know myself

I said I don't know myself

 

I don't mind if you try once in a while

And I don't mind if I cry once in a while

"Falling In A Deep Hole" - Emmylou Harris

https://youtu.be/vqsdLkbZryA

 

Drowning in the ocean you can be my lifeboat

Busted for a reefer ninety-nine years solitare

You can be my keeper

Falling in a deep hole and it's getting deeper

 

Stranded on the desert you can bring me water

Falling through the blue sky from an airplane

You parachute down and save me

Need to take my medicine, Baby, you can make me

 

Mixed up like a puzzle, you put me together

Paranoia nightmare raging in my sleep

You can kiss me on the cheek and wake me

Want to go to paradise, Baby, you can take me

 

Need to take my medicine, Baby, you can make me

Falling in a deep hole, and it's getting deeper

"Birds of a Feather" - Phish

https://youtu.be/OHEJDtc78CU

 

It’s easy sometimes when you just coast along

But like it or not something always seems to go wrong

Sometimes people build you up just so they can knock you down

Sometimes they will have you there cause they need someone around

 

Perhaps you’ll receive invitations for tea

Or perhaps you will laugh and you will make them all smile

Or maybe you’ll join them cause it had to be

Perhaps you’ll forget you forgot for a while

 

Birds of a feather are flocking outside

Birds of a feather are flocking outside

Birds of a feather are flocking outside

Birds of a feather are flocking outside

 

Like whippets they dance in a curly-queue dance

Of pulses and ringing and campfire chants

Of ritual drumming although at first glance

You thought you could run but you won’t take a chance

 

It’s not an experience if they can’t bring someone along

They hang on emotions they bottle inside

They peck at the ground and they strut out of stride

 

Birds of a feather are flocking outside

Birds of a feather are flocking outside

Birds of a feather are flocking outside

Birds of a feather are flocking outside

(x2)

"Feel The Light" - Jennifer Lopez

 

Here I go, here I go

Feel better now, feel better now

Here I go, here I go

It's better now, feel better now

 

Do you remember when we fell under

Did you expect me to reason with thunder

I still remember when time was frozen

What seemed forever was just a moment

 

Hurry up, hurry up

There's no more waiting

We're still worth saving

 

[CHORUS:]

Feel the light shining in the dark of night

Remember what we forgot, I know it's a long shot

But we're bringing it all back, we're bringing it all back

Feel the light shining like the stars tonight

Remember what we forgot, I know it's a long shot

But we're bringing it all back, we're bringing it all back

 

Here I go, here I go

Feel better now, feel better now

Here I go, here I go

It's better now, feel better now

 

I still remember when things were broken

But put together the cracks will close in

 

Hurry up, hurry up

There's no more waiting

We're still worth saving

 

[CHORUS:]

 

You and I can have it all tonight

So let's bring it back it to light

Now we have another chance to fly

Another chance to make it right

 

Feel the light shining in the dark of night

Remember what we forgot, I know it's a long shot

Feel the light shining like the stars tonight

Remember what we forgot, I know it's a long shot

But we're bringing it all back, we're bringing it all back

 

Here we go, here we go

Feel better now, feel better now

 

Here we go, here we go

It's better now

Feel better now

Falling Through Time - Asher Quinn (Asha)

 

http://blogs.sandiegozoo.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/SuLinCub.jpg

 

Come and walk with me

Through the mystery

There's a place that I know

Where the angels are falling through time

 

I've been there many times

Where unknowing becomes the road

And your struggles become your sacred songs

And the color of love

Is the ray in the dark, dark light

 

I believe in you

I would thieve for you

And I'll follow you faithfully

Even when you lose your way

 

Crossing the line with you

Tending the vine with you

Falling through time with you

 

A little further on before time began

There's a place in your soul

Where the spirits are singing your name

 

I've heard them many times

Where your shadow becomes your fate

And your sorrow becomes a karmic song

And the echo of love

Is a voice in the wilderness

 

I will wait for you

And open the gate for you

And I'll whisper the song of the cradle

As you fall asleep

 

I'll fall behind with you

I see the divine in you

I'm falling through time with you

 

Soar with the winds of your heart

They'll carry you home to who you really are

Oh joy, oh joy, to be who you really are

 

Where the rivers meet

And the air is sweet

There's a place between heaven and earth

Where your ray was formed

 

Do you remember this

Where your essence and all that you are

Incarnated just like a bright new star 

And the thunderous drums

Of the firmament pounded on

 

I lit a fire for you

I walked the wire with you

And I caught you each time

That you stumbled and started to fall

 

A light shines for you

I'd sacrifice mine for you

I'm falling through time with you

I'm falling through time with you
