More Lyrics
I seem to be on a lyrics binge lately... Today I was driving home in the crappy rain, and I heard a song on the radio that seemed familiar. About a minute into it, I realized that I had heard the song at the camp I went to this past June. Our coordinator would use songs during devotional time, and one night he played "Fix You" by Coldplay. The song didn't make too much of an impression on me at the time, so I have no idea why I was able to make that connection today. But this afternoon, the words had so much more meaning. I don't know if I have ever had such a lag time on understanding something.Tomorrow I have to do something that scares me a little bit, but I also think it could be exciting. It will be difficult, but I know it will be positive. I can't help but wonder if there is a reason why I heard that song today, and connected it to that time at camp. I am so ready to give up on "things happening for a reason" but I'm also so dysfunctionally stubborn, I think I have to give it another chance.

"Fix You"
When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
When the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
High up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
If you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I...
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Try on 'The Wind' by Cat Stevens...you'll love it.
I've heard it, it is one of my favorite CS songs, along with "If I laugh" and "Wide World"
