New Song…
You ever get a song stuck in your head?
Now, do you ever get a song stuck in your heart?
You know, a song that speaks to you about you. At odd times during the day, you find yourself singing it.
I did that for probably a year with The Fray’s “Argument in a Cable Car”. I really did feel like I was in over my head and everyone could tell. I still feel that way sometimes but the new job helps. I’m not as worried as I was 18 months ago.
Now I have a new song. The very first dancer on “So You Think You Can Dance” this season performed her solo routine to this song. I’d never really given it much thought before but after I watched her dance, I haven’t been able to forget it. She was so beautiful and her performance completely depicted the longing in the song.
“Stop and Stare” by One Republic
Stop and stare
I think I’m moving but I go nowhere
Yeah, I know that everyone gets scared
But I’ve become what I can’t be, oh
Stop and stare
You start to wonder why you’re here not there
And you’d give anything to get what’s fair
But fair ain’t what you really need
Oh, can you see what I see?
No need to explain all that much. You guys know me so well I suspect you can list all the reasons that rings so true for me. And there are lots of reasons. Not just one. The rest of the song is equally amazing. Talks about “steady hands” taking the wheel. My hands aren’t that steady. I’m a mess some days but thankfully the Lord’s hands are steady and He’s driving. I’m very happy about that.
