CHASING CARS...

Soo…I am at my house in Belfast..Lying in my bed listening to a little chasing cars, and I am once again reminded of all that I am thankful for..i am thankful to be here…to be given a second chance with Peter because that’s what this year is for he and i..a fresh start a second chance at God’s goodness, a chance for new beginnings and a new journey. The homesickness has not yet fully departed my heart, but it has been replaced with thankfulness, gratefulness…grateful that I am homesick, that there are people I care about back home that I do have people to miss, thankful for this opportunity to be in Belfast, in another country, another city..

So the song chasing cars…I know I have become quite famous for putting on the lyrics to Breakaway by Kelly Clarkson..so I thought maybe id try it with Chasing cars…anyhow..i love this song…everyone should listen to it..its by Snow Patrol (group from N. Ireland) and I think I first heard it on Grays Anatomy (see people that show has some good music on it..it's good for something right??)..and I remember when Erin was here telling her how much I loved this song and how it reminded me of Peter…and this is the song peter and I danced to in the kitchen..the one that almost always makes me cry…so it goes like this…

We 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 ( I love you!) are said too much than 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….blah blah blah..

All that I am, all that I ever was..is here in your perfect eyes…they’re all I can see…blah blah blah..

So that’s my song…

You're funny...everytime I listen to that song, it reminds me of you! I love that you truly listen to the lyrics and just not the noise of it all!

But remember, we can not make it alone; we do need Someone - He is always there to love you and help you love the world for Him.
