I Hear Goodnight - Ingram Hill

♫Well I closed my eyes this mornin'
Last night to me and my friends
Found myself spinnin' once again
Telephone rings for me
Still dirty from the day before
Feel the day's gonna leave me wantin' more

Gonna need some time
Let the night unwind
Face down on the floor
Like a drug you take
Fillin' in my fates
It's killin' me to know
I'm dyin for more

Annie you've never been good for me
But I still wanna be wrong
I said too much and now you're gone
And Annie you've never been true to me
But I still buy your lies
Tell me why when you say goodbye
I hear goodnight

Well I drove down every alley
Wore the shine off these old shoes
Shouldn't hurt this much when there nothin' to lose

I tell myself a story
I hang on every line
What if you adored me
Would I still be so blind
Every single time?♫



(Another Annie song :-(   Gotta start wondering about the name! I hate the name Ann. It is so boring and lacking in personality. Vanilla. I suppose Ann-marie would have been fine (which is my given name). I went with Annie, for some unknown latent reason. (oh yes...now I remember...) Are there songs about Kate? Carlie? Am I just aware because the name is mine....like I am aware of FourNineteen? )

three letters

who can absolve me

in one vowel?

June - Tyler Hilton

♫June, what you gonna do without me?
Soon, you're gonna have to move around me,
It's never what you wanted but it's been awhile coming,
Oh June, what you gonna do?

Throw your stones, if you need to take it out on me,
Don't you know, that's the way it's always gotta be,
There's no room, in the end your little fantasy,
Won't come true, that's so you,
June

June, I love the hats you wear to meet me,
But soon, you're gonna have to chose between me
And everything you wanted, girl you knew you had it coming,
Oh June, I said what you gonna do?

She screams and she cries and nobody cares,
She's never alone, she needs everyone there,
But she's not gonna get a reaction from me 'cause I let go,
And it's so hard to go.♫


(I love this song. I want to be left of center :)  I love this!. You'll have to listen to it on iTunes though because all the Youtube versions have bad sound quality.)

Dancing Shoes - Arctic Monkeys

I dunno...I just like it. Makes my feet jiggle :) TGIF!

Shadowfeet - Brooke Fraser

♫Walking, stumbling
On these shadowfeet
Toward home, a land that I've never seen

I am changing
Less and less asleep
Made of different stuff than when I began

And I have sensed it all along
Fast approaching is the day

When the world has fallen out from under me
I'll be found in you, still standin'
When the sky rolls up and mountains fall on their knees
When time and space are through
I'll be found in you

There's distraction
Buzzing in my head
Saying in the shadows it's easier to stay

But I've heard rumours
Of true reality
Whispers of a well-lit way.♫

ADHESION

I am adhesive

rolling into being

the way you stick to me, the tenacity.

We are adhesive

the way she sticks to us, permanent

all these adhesions

binding our tissue

such a delicate word....tissue

can we be made of something so fine?

We should shred, moving through the world

and I suppose we do

though rolling on

picking up adhesions

I've heard rumors of a whole woman

who had no need

She lived in a garden

and then she didn't

Apologies - Grace Potter and The Nocturnals

(Where has this band been all my life? Described as "home based in Vermont, it blends a cool funky kinda soul with a honest, but heavy 70′s vibe" by Living In The Spiral, and I wholeheartedly agree. Gotta go find me some more of this as this is the first I've heard!)

♫Yesterday he said my eyes
Were fading fast away
I said well what do you expect
You asked me not to stay and if it had all been for the best
I wouldn't feel this way
And he said

Oh he said it's crazy
How love stays with me
You know it hurts me
Cause I don't wanna fight this war
It's amazing to see me reading through this scene
Of love and fear and apologies

My love is like a blanket
That gets a little bit too warm sometimes
I wanna wrap somebody in it
Who can hold me in his arms
Cause when it got a little too hot in there
He was always stepping out for air and he froze
Oh he froze

He said it's crazy
How love stays with me
You know it hurts me
Cause I don't wanna fight this war
It's amazing to see me reading through this scene
Of love and fear and apologies

Yesterday he looked at me
With a tear in his eye and said
I'll always tell you you're my friend
I hope I don't have to lie
Cause it's clear you love another man
I said you're damn right

And he said
He said it's crazy
How love stays with me
You know it hurts me
Cause I don't wanna fight this war
It's amazing to see me reading through this scene
Of love and fear and apologies
He said it's crazy
How love stays with me
You know it hurts me
That i didn't figure it out before
And now it's too late for a soliloquy
It's way too late for dignity
It's time for apologies.♫

Nothing Fancy - Dave Barnes

♫There's nothing fancy bout the way I love you,
There's nothing you could not find in any other man.
There's nothing fancy bout the way I love you,
But I love you as hard as I can.

There's no good reason for the way you love me,
But you're my walking dream come true.
There's no good reason for the way you love me,
But I thank God that you do.

I don't know the perfect conversation,
I don't know the way to turn a head,
I don't know the perfect way to prove my love,
But I know I'll love you till I'm dead.

There's nothing fancy bout the way I love you,
It's as simple as the stars in the sky, and the blue in the sea.
There's nothing fancy bout the way I love you,
But it sure is fancy how you love me.♫


(The lyrics aren't spectacular. The sentiment is lovely and the melody makes it a winner. As a songwriter, Barnes has both written and co-written songs for Marc Broussard, Bebo Norman, Matt Wertz, Andrew Ripp, Billy Currington, and many other singers. I'm not surprised about the Matt Wertz connection, as both artists flip my heart the same way. Broussard surprises me, but no doubt it was Gavin's Song, and Jeremiah's Prayer if I were to hazard a guess. Ahhh yes...just Googled. Gavin's song co-written with Dave Barnes. Barne's has a recognizable style. Humble. Connected. Earthy. I'm a huge fan.)

Rise Up - Disciple

♫Here I come, I'm 'bout to rise up
With all of my people, we're 'bout to rise up
Here we come now, we're 'bout to rise up
With all of my people, we're 'bout to rise up.♫


My favorite wake up song :)
Not much to it...
but it get's my feet moving at 0-dark:30.

Good Morning!
