May Your Heart

May your heart be never alone when
The dawn's breaking
May your life be a rolling stone when
The ground starts shaking
And the world is waking

All I can tell you is to know who you are
And if they hurt you they can never do you harm
And if you want to you can love 'em till
The cold turns warm

May your kiss always feel like the first kisses
And may your truth help you heal
May you catch big fishes and get all your wishes
All I can tell you is to know who you are...

If you want me (I will be there)
If you need me (I will be there)
If you want me (I will be there)

Can you hear me?
If you're waiting (I will be there)
Your heart's aching (I will be there)
If you need me (I will be there)

Can you hear me?
And when you're lonely (I will be there)
When you call me (I will be there)
If you need me (I will be there)

Believe me I'm going nowhere
May your heart be never alone.

May your heart be never alone.

Believe

Children sleeping, snow is softly falling
Dreams are calling like bells in the distance
We were dreamers not so long ago
But one by one we all had to grow up
When it seems the magic's slipped away
We find it all again on Christmas day

Believe in what your heart is saying
Hear the melody that's playing
There's no time to waste
There's so much to celebrate
Believe in what you feel inside
And give your dreams the wings to fly
You have everything you need
If you just believe

Trains move quickly to their journey's end
Destinations are where we begin again
Ships go sailing far across the sea
Trusting starlight to get where they need to be
When it seems that we have lost our way
We find ourselves again on Christmas day

Believe in what your heart is saying
Hear the melody that's playing
There's no time to waste
There's so much to celebrate
Believe in what you feel inside
And give your dreams the wings to fly
You have everything you need
If you just believe

Just believe

---------------------------------------

And so let the Christmas celebrating begin...
I finished 3/4 exams and time to relax just a bit. For the past 4 days straight, I have been studying for my exams... for Wednesday, Friday, and today. So sad my life has become. Christmas is coming slowly but surely. I'm watching The Family Stone right now, and I'm so excited since my next exam is four days from now. Then time to read and have some time to sleep! I love sleep. I loveeee sleep. Enough about that.

So today I decide to be cute and all and wear tights with a dress and no socks in my shoes. Who knew it would be unbelievably fucking cold. But no worries, my feet are still intact. As I got off the bus on the way home, it started snowing. Not the chunky, flaky kind. It was the small, barely-a-snowflake kind, fluttering slowly with the wind. Just the early signs of what winter has to offer. It was quite relaxing, despite the coldness against my legs. Quite beautiful really. Just solids that have been to the skies and back, disappearing once the wind has taken it where it had to go. So that's my story about snow. I usually hate snow. But not today.

Update: A shitload of snow just fell.

Fearless

There's something about the way
The street looks when it's just rained
There’s a glow off the pavement
You walk me to the car
And you know I want to ask you to dance right there
In the middle of the parking lot
Yeah

We're drivin' down the road
I wonder if you know
I'm tryin' so hard not to get caught up now
But you're just so cool
Run your hands through your hair
Absentmindedly makin' me want you

And I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless

So baby drive slow
‘Til we run out of road in this one horse town
I wanna stay right here in this passenger’s seat
You put your eyes on me
In this moment now capture it, remember it

and I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I’d dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless

Well you stood there with me in the doorway
My hands shake
I'm not usually this way but
You pull me in and I’m a little more brave
It’s the first kiss,
It's flawless,
Really something,
It’s fearless.

Oh yeah
Cuz I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless

oh, oh

---------------------------------

It's hard to say that I am afraid. Run and never look back. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Lullaby

Didn’t they teach you?
Everything’s okay if you settle enough?
Forget your dreams
Let’s pretend I’m everything you want me to be

Complicated breathing
You never had the guts just to throw me away
Life moves slow
When everything’s a worse version of what you need

And I’m just the ground
That you happened to fall on
When you lost your balance walking around in the rain
And you got to your feet
Scratched your head and started to gather
The life that you dropped all around me

I can’t fight for a graveyard anymore

Some people have their money
To keep their legs pumping away at the ground
What moves me is fear
That I'll always be alone at the end of the day (at the end of the day)

And I’m just the ground
That you happened to fall on
When you lost your balance walking around in the rain
And you got to your feet
Scratched your head and started to gather
The life that you dropped all around me

I can’t fight for a graveyard
I can’t fight for a graveyard anymore

I’m just the ground
That you happened to fall on
I’m just the ground
I’m just the ground
I’m just the ground

And I’m just the ground
That you happened to fall on
When you lost your balance walking around in the rain
And you got to your feet
Scratched your head and started to gather
The life that you dropped all around me

I’m just the ground
I’m just the ground
I’m just the ground
I’m just the ground

I can’t fight for a graveyard anymore

---------------------------------

How do I keep the light from disappearing in your eyes, when you want it to?
