What song describes you?

[Beekissed]

I'm Walkin' on Sunshine!!!

 

[Spookwriter]

It's a gospel song. But pay attention to the chorus. Some awesome words
that I live by.


I'm a Winner Either Way


A LOVED ONE KNEW HE'D REACHED THE END OF LIFE'S JOURNEY,
BUT HE'D BEEN HOLDING TO GOD'S HAND A LONG, LONG TIME
AND AS I KNELT BESIDE HIS BED,
MY HEART WAS THRILLED AT WHAT HE SAID,"
IF I GO, OR IF I STAY, THE VICTORY IS MINE."

I'M A WINNER EITHER WAY, IF I GO OR IF I STAY
FOR I'LL STILL HAVE MY JESUS EACH PASSING DAY
I'LL HAVE MY HEALING HERE BELOW, OR LIFE FOREVER IF I GO
OH PRAISE THE LORD, I'M A WINNER EITHER WAY.

NONE OF US REALLY KNOWS ABOUT TOMORROW,
WE MUST PREPARE TO GO TO HEAVEN ANYDAY
BUT WHILE WE'RE HERE LET'S TRUST THE LORD,
HE'LL LEAD US SAFE TO OUR REWARD
AND BY HIS GRACE, WE'LL BE A WINNER EITHER WAY

(CHORUS)
I'M A WINNER EITHER WAY, IF I GO OR IF I STAY
FOR I'LL STILL HAVE MY JESUS EACH PASSING DAY
I'LL HAVE MY HEALING HERE BELOW, OR LIFE FOREVER IF I GO
OH PRAISE THE LORD, I'M A WINNER EITHER WAY.


.....

I'm a winner either way....I had these words chisled in the stone
a long time ago. I live my life just that way. In a little church a long
time ago, I got down on knees and I gave my life to the Lord.

Beautiful song Spook. Music is music no matter the genre, it speaks to us.

 

[Beekissed]

Another one for me.


The Byrds - Wasn't Born To Follow

Oh I'd rather go and journey where the diamond crest is flowing and
Run across the valley beneath the sacred mountain and
Wander through the forest
Where the trees have leaves of prisms and break the light in colors
That no one knows the names of

And when it's time I'll go and wait beside a legendary fountain
Till I see your form reflected in it's clear and jewelled waters
And if you think I'm ready
You may lead me to the chasm where the rivers of our vision
Flow into one another

I will want to die beneath the white cascading waters
She may beg, she may plead, she may argue with her logic
And then she'll know the things I learned
That really have no value in the end she will surely know
I wasn't born to follow


A number of things hit home for me with this song.
The scene in the movie Easy Rider where this song plays is beautiful.
I love the outdoors and nature. The lyrics speak to me.
Despite a career in the US Army I chafe against the bit and I wasn't born to follow.

My song, right now, is "Fallin for you" by Colbie Callait. I just so identify with it at the moment, but maybe thats just me being a typical teenage gal hankering over a guy.

I don't know but I think I may be fallin' for you
Droppin' so quickly maybe I should keep this to myself
Wait until I know you better

I am tryin' not to tell you but I want to
I'm scared of what you'll say
So I'm hidin' what I'm feelin'
But I'm tired of holdin' this inside my head

I've been spendin' all my time just thinkin' 'bout you
I don't know what to do I think I'm fallin' for you
I've been waitin' all my life and now I found you
I don't know what to do I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you

As I'm standin' here and you hold my hand
Pull me towards you and we start to dance
All around us I see nobody
Here in silence it's just you and me

I am tryin' not to tell you but I want to
I'm scared of what you'll say
So I'm hidin' what I'm feelin'
But I'm tired of holdin' this inside my head

I've been spendin' all my time just thinkin' 'bout you
I don't know what to do I think I'm fallin' for you
I've been waitin' all my life and now I found you
I don't know what to do I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you

Oh I just can't take it my heart is racin'
Emotions keep spinnin' out

I've been spendin' all my time just thinkin' 'bout you
I don't know what to do I think I'm fallin' for you
I've been waitin' all my life and now I found you
I don't know what to do I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you I think I'm fallin' for you

I can't stop thinkin' 'bout it I want you all around me
And now I just can't hide it I think I'm fallin' for you
I can't stop thinkin' 'bout it I want you all around me
And now I just can't hide it I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you oh oh oh no no oh oh oh oh
Oh I'm fallin' for you

ETA: Forever Young by Alphaville is another one i love, as is "Firework" by Katy Perry. I really identify with the latter!

 

[Mahonri]

How does it go?

I'm just too good to be true.

Can't take your eyes off this fool.

I'm just like heaven to touch.

E'ryone digs me so much..

you know the rest of the words...

Ok, here's one for me, as my wife is leaving wednesday to fly to vegas for a week leaving me the demon horde. My SIL's wedding. I will have my sweet boy timmy though...

Kelly, here's one; as I am missing you already

Nothing Else Matters - Metallica

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
and nothing else matters

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
and nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
but I know

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
but I know

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us, something new
Open mind for a different view
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they say
never cared for games they play
never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
and I know

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
No, nothing else matters
