I find it interesting that certain events evoke connections with certain descriptive song lyrics...whether or not those lyrics have anything to do with the event the mind connects them to. This week there have been some wasting time events, there have been some events that have felt like chasing cars in no particular direction, and there have been many a time when I've cried out "I need your grace". I don't think any of the events of my week were what Snow Patrol had in mind when they put together today's song, but they're images nevertheless are the ones my mind has gravitated to since early this morning.
Chasing Cars
by Snow Patrol
We'll do it all
Everything
On our own
We don't need
Anything
Or anyone
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?
I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden
That's bursting into life
Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden
That's bursting into life
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes
They're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things
Will never change for us at all
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?
