Have you ever felt like a song was written just for you? There are times when I turn on the radio that I swear the artist is singing just for me. I promise I'm not that vain. What I mean is that I connect so intensely with the song that I could have written it. While I do not relate to the whole song, lately every time I hear the first few lines of lyrics to The Fray's song Never Say Never, I'm amazed at how well i can relate to it.
Here it is:
There's some things we don't talk about
Rather do without
And just hold the smile
Please don't get me wrong, my life is absolutely wonderful right now. August is a fabulous month for the hubby and I. Hubs got promoted yesterday. We head to Maui in just a few short weeks. Plus we are packing up and moving out of our VERY tiny apartment into a beautiful new place. So why the Debbie Downer lyrics? I think it's because in just a few shorts lines it summed up the way I felt while the hubs was deployed for 15 months.
what lyrics are inspiring you right now and why?

My Grown Up Christmas List
Today, I share with you what I would really like for Christmas. I've always loved these lyrics and find them especially fitting this year. Stay tuned in the next day or two I will be sharing my since "I can't have world peace" Christmas list.
"My Grown Up Christmas List"
Do you remember me
I sat upon your knee
I wrote to you
With childhood fantasies
Well, I'm all grown up now
And still need help somehow
I'm not a child
But my heart still can dream
So here's my lifelong wish
My grown up christmas list
Not for myself
But for a world in need
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never startand wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown up christmas list
As children we believed
The grandest sight to see
Was something lovely
Wrapped beneath our tree
Well heaven only knows
That packages and bows
Can never heal
A hurting human soul
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown up christmas list
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth(there'd be)
What is your "grown-Up Christmas list" this year?
