My first year as an RA, one of my sweet residents, Melissa, introduced me to this band called Simple Fool. I wore that CD OUT! I have yet to find another one, but I found their myspace and I think you should GO TO IT and listen to my favorites:
I Know Now
and
Daughter
Daughter is such a great song for a woman like me. It's one of those songs I would have liked to have written--was someone following me around as a sophomore in college and writing songs about my life?
I feel like somebody needs to listen to this song today.
Maybe it's just me.
Man, that line...
I'll wrap my arms around you when you can't sleep...
gets me every time.
My mom used to talk about Jesus holding her a lot. She loved that painting of the little lamb in the arms of Jesus. She said she was that little lamb.
I don't know who needs this today but here it is...Believing He will use this to heal your heart a little, sister.
tears fall
lips quiver
she wears her heart on her sleeve
her mouth smiles
her eyes don't sometimes
life's hard to believe
door's been closed
and blankets pulled over her head
her mind goes over
the things that have been said
I will love you unconditionally
I'll wrap my arms around you
when you can't sleep
and I'll hold your head
when you just weep and weep
Daughter, I'll love you
Can this be
when I've failed You
again and again
there are days
when I don't even talk to You, oh
and I don't deserve this
I don't deserve You
I don't deserve this
I don't deserve You
You say
I will love you unconditionally
I'll wrap my arms around you
when you can't sleep
and I'll hold your head
when you just weep and weep
Daughter, I'll love you unconditionally
Daughters, He will love you unconditionally--His love is not like the love of this world.
Love you all.
