Lost in the Light

It's a new music weekend for me, which is good, because dang, the weather is cold and gloomy, and my kids are off enjoying sand and surf!

I was introduced to this song (and this band) driving home from the wettest, coldest run I've maybe ever done:

I'm lost in the light
I pray for the night
To take me, to take you too

After so many words
Still nothing's heard
Don't know what we should do

So if someone could see me now
Let them see you

'twas my greatest thrill
When we just stood still
You let me hold your hand 'til I had my fill

Even counting sheep
Don't help me sleep
I just toss and turn right there beside ya

So if someone could help me now
They'd help you too

They'd help you too
See you through
All the hard things we've all gotta do

'Cause this life is long
So you wouldn't be wrong
Being free, leaving me on my own

And I held my own
Still I rattled your bones
I said some awful things and I take them back

If we would try again
Just remember when
Before we were lovers I swear we were friends

So if someone could see me now
Let them see you

Let them see you
See you through
All the hard things we've all gotta do

'Cause this life is long
So you wouldn't be wrong
Being free, leaving me on my own

A lovely song about how sometimes relationships with people we love don't work out, and that's ok.

As soon as I got home, I ran a bath, made some tea and oatmeal, got rid of the chill and then crawled into bed. That's the kind of day it is here -- thankfully the temps should rise and the sun should come out later in the week. Then it'll feel a little more like "spring" break!
