Lyrics

Ever since I can remember, I have LOVED listening to the words of songs. When I was in highschool, I developed my love for country music. I felt like most of the songs sung by the artists told a story ... somehow, I tried to find my story in thier lyrics.

If Tomorrow Never Comes .... Oh, Garth - you knew that I wanted to date that boy, but I wasn't allowed to.


Bye Bye - Jodee Messina .... oh how you knew I WOULD be ok after he broke my heart.


Unanswered Prayers ... Garth - you knew that I was praying, but I hoped my unanswered prayers would prove to be better than what I wanted.

Love Me - had the Collin Raye CD and this was my favorite song on there...

Expose' --- Micheal W. Smith -- Billy Ray Cyrus (Just kidding) ... all of them had songs that told stories of what I was going thru ... how I wanted to feel ... what I'd like to do ...


My daughter does this differently, she puts herself in roles in movies and TV shows. I have never done this ... but, maybe this is her relating to life - maybe finding songs that told my stories was the way I related.

Funny that I married a man who ministers to people thru song. I don't think music does the same to him. Probably b/c he is more concentrating on the tone/quality of thier voice and breathing rather than than the words. I think everyone has different things that tug on thier heart strings .... mine is music.

So, today I was cleaning out clothes and cleaning bathrooms - and I had this song on my iPod and I was just singing it over and over .....

If you have iTunes - you should download it.

Can't Live A Day .. by Avalon

I could live life alone

And never fill the longings of my heart

The healing warmth of someone's arms

And I could live without dreams

And never know the thrill of what could be

With every star so far and out of reach

I could live without many things

and I could carry on, but...

I couldn't face my life tomorrow

Without Your hope in my heart I know

I can't live a day without You

Lord, there's no night and there's no morning

Without Your loving arms to hold me

You're the heartbeat of all I do

I can't live a day without You

I could travel the world

See all the wonders beautiful and new

They'd only make me think of You

And I could have all life offers

Riches that were far beyond compare

To grant my every wish without a care

Oh, I could do anything, oh yes

But if You weren't in it all...

Make Him your Hope today .... I am.
