    The first two songs I posted really touch my heart. I cannot hear then without tearing up.

    This song is one that reminds me of myself. I have major commitment issues. LOL really though I do.

    TRISHA YEARWOOD (Singer)

    Harmless Heart
    (Kim Patton Johnston/Liz Rose - Writers)

    You said you were afraid to trust
    So sorry for yourself it must be hard
    Living inside your head
    And I'm no angel in disguise
    I've had my share of alibis
    But I was true to you
    I meant every word I said
    What's the use
    You believe whatever you want to

    You can run, you can hide
    Love will still come to find you
    You can turn it away
    Keep romancing your pain
    Your the best at self-defense
    I'd say you've mastered the art
    But baby, mine was a harmless heart

    In your eyes I'm like the rest
    You set me up to fail the test
    And prove that you were right
    Everyone lets you down
    The ghost of all that might have been
    Is tapping on your shoulder
    But you just keep right on movin'
    You never turn around
    If you ever do
    I hope you see that I really loved you

    You can run, you can hide
    Love will still come to find you
    You can turn it away
    Keep romancing your pain
    Your the best at self-defense
    I'd say you've mastered the art
    But baby, mine was a harmless heart

    Your the best at self-defense
    I'd say you've mastered the art
    But baby, mine was a harmless heart
    Baby, mine was a harmless heart

    Watching The Wheels


    John Lennon

    People say I'm crazy doing what I'm doing
    Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin
    When I say that I'm o.k. well they look at me kind of strange
    Surely you're not happy now you no longer play the game

    People say I'm lazy dreaming my life away
    Well they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me
    When I tell them that I'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall
    Don't you miss the big time boy you're no longer on the ball

    I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
    I really love to watch them roll
    No longer riding on the merry-go-round
    I just had to let it go

    Ah, people asking questions lost in confusion
    Well I tell them there's no problem, only solutions
    Well they shake their heads and they look at me as if I've lost my mind
    I tell them there's no hurry
    I'm just sitting here doing time

    I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
    I really love to watch them roll
    No longer riding on the merry-go-round
    I just had to let it go
    I just had to let it go
    I just had to let it go

    Every time I start to feel a little "old", this song always makes me feel better.

    Touch of Grey
    Grateful Dead

    Must be getting early
    Clocks are running late
    Paint by number morning sky
    Looks so phony

    Dawn is breaking everywhere
    Light a candle, curse the glare
    Draw the curtains
    I don't care 'cause
    It's all right

    I will get by / I will get by
    I will get by / I will survive

    I see you've got your list out
    Say your piece and get out
    Yes I get the gist of it
    but it's all right

    Sorry that you feel that way
    The only thing there is to say
    Every silver lining's got a
    Touch of grey

    I will get by / I will get by
    I will get by / I will survive

    It's a lesson to me
    The Ables and the Bakers and the C's
    The ABC's we all must face
    And try to keep a little grace

    It's a lesson to me
    The deltas and the east and the freeze
    The ABC's we all think of
    Try to give a little love.

    I know the rent is in arrears
    The dog has not been fed in years
    It's even worse than it appears
    but it's all right.

    Cows giving kerosene
    Kid can't read at seventeen
    The words he knows are all obscene
    but it's all right

    I will get by / I will get by
    I will get by / I will survive

    The shoe is on the hand it fits
    There's really nothing much to it
    Whistle through your teeth and spit
    causeit's all right.

    Oh well a Touch Of Grey
    Kind of suits you anyway.
    That was all I had to say
    It's all right.

    I will get by / I will get by
    I will get by / I will survive
    We will get by / We will get by
    We will get by / We will survive
