Thanks, Insom, you're giving me lots of great new artists to get acquainted with!

 

"Takes A Little Time" - Amy Grant

"It takes a little time sometimes

To get your feet back on the ground

It takes a little time sometimes

To get the Titanic turned back around

It takes a little time sometimes

But baby you're not going down

It takes more than you've got right now

Give it, give it time

 

"You can't fix this pain with money

You can't rush a weary soul

You can't sweep it under the rug now honey

But it don't take a lot to know

 

"Well it may not be over by morning

But Rome wasn't built in a day

You can name that thing a thousand times

And it won't make it go away ..."

CHANTAL KREVIAZUK

"FEELS LIKE HOME"

 

Fluter

Thanks, Fluter, that is a lovely song.  I actually have this one of hers on my playlist, in keeping with the theme ...

 

"Weight Of The World" - Chantal Kreviazuk

 

"I don't know why I was so afraid all the time

Memories seemed to bother me my whole life

I used to carry the weight of the world

And now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly ...

 

And now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly ..."           

 

                                   

[[...]]

This is one of my all time favorite songs.  I still remember the first time I heard it many, many years ago, I practically melted on the spot.  And it still gives me goose bumps today.

 

"Sweetest Decline" - Beth Orton

 

"What's the use in regrets

They're just things we haven't done yet

What are regrets

They're just lessons we haven't learned yet

 

"It's like catching snow on your tongue

You can't pin this butterfly down

Can't pin this butterfly down  ..."

 

[[Fl...]]

Mornin abcd

I think this is what we are all reaching for...don't you?

The Freedom to "SPREAD OUR WINGS AND FLY

 

And now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly ..."[/i]

 

Thank you for sharing this song, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Hugs and Friendship,

Fluter

Absolutely, Fluter!  Someday, someday ... soon ... soon ...!   

And this song, I love, I find it quite hauntingly beautiful ...

 

"It's Going to Be Alright" - Sara Groves

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGeR6Ymi4Do

 

"I believe you'll outlive this pain in your heart

And you'll gain such a strength from what is tearing you apart

 

"Oh, I believe, I believe that

It's going to be alright

It's going to be alright

 

"When some time has past us, and the story can be told

It will mirror the strength and the courage of your soul

 

"Oh, I believe, I believe

I believe that I'm going to be alright

I believe that we're going to be alright

"I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe ..."

The Chieftains and Mick Jagger - The Long Black Veil

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYE-x0Yje98&list=PLBCg06l-QlbsmgyLlY84QJmTfved-Zn1L

 

A couple favorites of mine for getting going in the morning:

 

Flogging Molly:

 

The worst day since yesterday

 

 

"though these wounds have seen no wars,

except for the scars I have ignored,

and this endless crutch, well it's never enough,

it's been the worst day since yesterday

 

Far Away Boys

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V72fxBu43Dc\

 

And to counterbalance the whole mournful irish theme going on above, some soul:

 

Sam Cooke - Another Saturday night

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i98_Lqcryp8

 

Sam Cooke - Jesus gave me water

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3d1jvP8FG1E

[[...]]

Ouch, Thio!  Now I've really fallen and can't get up. 

I think we need to temper that with something extra warm and sappy ...

 

"I Made It Through The Rain" - Barry Manilow

 

"When friends are hard to find

And life seems so unkind

Sometimes you feel so afraid

Just aim beyond the clouds

And rise above the crowds

And start your own parade

 

"Cause when I chased my fears away

That's when I knew that I could finally say

 

"I made it through the rain

I kept my world protected

I made it through the rain

I kept my point of view

I made it through the rain

And found myself respected

By the others who

Got rained on too

And made it through ..."

[[...]]

"Titanium" - David Guetta (featuring Sia)

 

"I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose

Fire away, fire away

Ricochet, you take your aim

Fire away, fire away

 

"You shoot me down but I won't fall

I am titanium

You shoot me down but I won't fall

I am titanium ..."

 

                                                                       

[[...]]

"Brave" - Idina Menzel

 

"Don't know just where I'm going

And tomorrow, it's a little overwhelming

And the air is cold

And I'm not the same anymore

 

"If this is the moment I stand here on my own

If this is my rite of passage that somehow leads me home

I might be afraid

But it's my turn to be brave

 

"And I might still cry

And I might still bleed

These thorns in my side

This heart on my sleeve

And lightening may strike

This ground at my feet

And I might still crash

But I still believe ..."

"Break Free" - Ariana Grande

 

 

This is the part when I say I don't want ya

I'm stronger than I've been before

This is the part when I break free

'Cause I can't resist it no more

 

You were better, deeper

I was under your spell

Like a deadly fever, yeah, babe

On the highway to hell, yeah

"Tomorrow (A Better You, Better Me)" - Tevin Campbell

or 

- A great remix

 

"I hope tomorrow will bring a better you, a better me

I know that we'll show this world we got more we could be

So you should never give up on your hopes and your dreams

You gotta get up, get out, get into it, get it on to be strong

 

"If we try, we can fly to a whole 'nother place

All we need is belief and a smile on our face

We can go anywhere we want, any road we decide to take

And we're never, never, never too far from tomorrow today

 

"If we try, we can fly to a place in the sun

All we need is precious dreams and a friend we can trust

We can go anywhere we want, any road that we can take

And we're never too far from tomorrow today ..."                       

[[...]]

"Keep Holding On" - Avril Lavigne

 

"You're not alone

Together we stand

I'll be by your side, you know I'll take your hand

When it gets cold

And it feels like the end

There's no place to go

You know I won't give in

No I won't give in

 

"Keep holding on

Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through

Just stay strong

Cause you know I'm here for you, I'm here for you

 

"There's nothing you could say

Nothing you could do

There's no other way when it comes to the truth

So keep holding on

Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through ..."

"Before The Morning" - Josh Wilson

 

"Do you wonder why you have to

Feel the things that hurt you

If there's a Gd who loves you

Where is He now?

 

"Maybe there are things you can't see

And all those things are happening

To bring a better ending

Some day, somehow, you'll see you'll see

 

"Would you dare, would you dare to believe

That you still got a reason to sing

Because the pain that you've been feeling

It can't compare to the joy that's coming

 

"So hold on, you got to wait for the light

Press on and just fight the good fight

Oh, the pain that you've been feeling

It's just the dark before the morning

 

"Because the pain that you've been feeling

It's just the hurt before the healing ... "
