Day two!

The 7 days meme:
Day one • a picture
Day two • a song
Day three • a book
Day four • a site
Day five • a youtube clip
Day six • a quote
Day seven • whatever tickles your fancy

We are the music-makers. We are the dreamers of dreams. That quote has nothing to do with my song, but I love it. I am tiiiired tonight. Possibly a side-effect of trying on every wedding dress in the city. ;) (Which is maybe a small exaggeration.)

Anyway, song time. I had a hard time picking this one because I reeeeally like my music. But I love this song and it is one of the songs I identify with, I think. If that makes sense.

I Stand, Idina Menzel:

When you ask me
Who I am
What is my vision
Do I have a plan
Where is my strength
Have I nothing to say
I hear the words in my head
But I push them away

Cause
I stand for the power to change
I live for the perfect day
I love till it hurts like crazy
I hope for a hero to save me
I stand for the strange and lonely
I believe there’s a better place
I don’t know if the sky is heaven
But I pray anyway

And I don’t know what tomorrow brings
The road less traveled
Will it set us free?
Cause we’re taking it slow
These tiny legacies
I don’t try and change the world
But what will you make of me?

I stand for the power to change
I live for the perfect day
I love till it hurts like crazy
I hope for a hero to save me
I stand for the strange and lonely
I believe there’s a better place
I don’t know if the sky is heaven
But I pray anyway

With the slightest of breezes
We fall just like leaves
As the rain washes us from the ground
We forget who we are
We can’t see in the dark
And we quickly get lost in the crowd

I stand for the power to change
I live for the perfect day
I love till it hurts like crazy
I hope for a hero to save me

I stand for the power to change
I live for the perfect day
I love till it hurts like crazy
I hope for a hero to save me
I stand for the strange and lonely
I believe there’s a better place
I don’t know if the sky is heaven
But I pray anyway

I need to stop typing these up when I'm tired and ready to pass out because I forget what I want to say about them. ;)

Love shouldn't hurt.

And you can save yourself. You're my hero.

But I like that song. The chorus is catchy.

Cass says we need to pick out colors?

:P Don't pick on my song! And I didn't say I take it LITERALLY. (Besides, can you imagine Mom's reaction to that line about hoping for a hero to save me? I'd need a hero!)

Anyway, that line--"I love till it hurts like crazy"--I don't tend to think of it as a bad hurting. More like "I love without limitations" or with everything in me or like... I'm not explaining this right. I can't find the words for it! Like I love you.

We do. I promised her we'd decide this weekend, so there can be MORE dress shopping! Bridesmaids this time, though.

Sorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry. <3 (Hahaha. Well, I'll pick up your books again anytime, BooBoo.)

Oh. That makes sense. That's how I love you, too. You explained it just fine.

Wow, I'm glad I don't have to wear a dress. What colors do you want?

[cisskabob.livejournal.com]

I forgiiiiiiiive you. ♥ (Dork. You did save me, anyway.)

Not exactly the way I want to, but I'm glad it makes sense. I think of that line more in terms of not being afraid to love and love completely, maybe?

Yes, but your tie will need to be the right color. ;) Ummm... well, good question. But I think I have to sleep on it. Let's go to beeeeed now, I'm tired!

That's a great song, Cissie. It's fitting and I love you. And I'm not sorry you're tired because it was a good day out.

I love you too! I'm not sorry either. It's a good tired!
