Music of the Night

Well, Thanksgiving has come and gone.
I'm stuffed with turkey, and have felt the effects of that one amino acid that makes you drowsy.. crap, I've seen that comericial, what's it called again?! Oh well...

So now it's 1 AM and I'm on my laptop browsing my music library to find songs that fit me right now. Why's I got to pick a sad one?

"...and every victory has a taste that's bittersweet, and it's your face I'm a-looking for on every street..."

Dire Straits. "On Every Street." It's one of my songs for my sadder moods.

But why should I be sad? This is the time of year, of all times of the year, to be thankful for what I've got. Let me say it now: I've got so much it's nearly sickening. I'm grateful for all of that.

Man, I've got such a rebelious heart. "No no NO!!" it protests. Let's try to soothe it... let's see... *browses through library again...*

Okay, got something. This should help. The artist. The lyrics. Even the simple tune.I'm gonna post the whole song up here:


"Love"By John Lennon

Love is real
Real is love
Love is feeling
Feeling love
Love is wanting
To be loved

Love is touch
Touch is love
Love is reaching
Reaching love
Love is asking
To be loved

Love is you
You and me
Love is knowing
We can be

Love is free
Free is love
Love is living
Living love
Love is needing
To be loved


The lyrics are so simple. Yet incredibly true. The tune (I regret most ofyou don't know it) is simple, let beautiful enough. And the artist... well, I love the guy.

Yeah, that did help a little bit. I'd better get in a better spirit soon. Because with this holiday now passed, the one we've all been waiting for is now truely around the corner...
Let the new music begin!!!
