This week's heart-song. I found it by accident, as all good heart-songs are found. Well, it's more like the heart-song for the past two months, but anyway, here 'tis:
Everything's Ok, by Chris Rice
Looked out my window last night,
From my pillow and I,
Saw the willows weeping a causal sigh.
Man in the moon looked rather,
Sad and confused as if he'd,
Become a mirror to my watery eyes.
I dreamed and prayed through the night,
Please send some grace with your morning light
Chorus
Then he sent you along like a summer day
With a blue-sky smile on your funny face
And a bird flew by singing eveything's gonna be ok, yeah
So we laughed all day with the man in the moon
And we thanked the good Lord for the afternoon
'Cause he showed me His love by sending me you
And it's ok now
Everything's ok.
Opened my window tonight,
Hear the rain falling light,
Whispering that everything in alright.
Long, low, and gentle rumble,
Starts in the west and tumbles,
Across the corners of the colorless sky.
I blow a kiss through the dark,
Sails on the thunder and reaches heaven's heart.
Chorus
'Cause he sent you along like a summer day
With a blue-sky smile on your funny face
And a bird flew by singing eveything's gonna be, ok yeah
So we laughed all day with the man in the moon
And we thanked the good Lord for the afternoon
'Cause he showed me His love by sending me you
And it's ok now
Everything's ok.
[instrumental interlude]
We laughed all day,
And we thanked the good Lord,
Cause He showed me His love,
Ok now.
Chorus
And he sent you along like a summer day
With a blue-sky smile on your funny face
And a bird flew by singing eveything's gonna be ok, yeah
So we laughed all day with the man in the moon
And we thanked the good Lord for the afternoon
'Cause he showed me His love by sending me you
And it's ok now
//Everything's ok, yeah//
Everything's ok.
It's funny, 'cause that's kinda sorta exactly how things happened, too. =)
over 'n out.
E.O.
