Look at Me

Ah, the ol' schedule caught up with me again this week, leaving y'all without an e-mail post today. My apologies.

And, for some reason, this song has been stuck in my mind the past day or so. I wrote it "back in the day" when I was doing that sort of thing regularly.

LOOK AT ME

I'm a child, look at me, I am growing wings
Butterfly, floating free on the rising wind
I could share it with you if you'd only see
How He holds all our tomorrows
In a moment

I'm a dream, look at me, I am coming true
I could be everything, if you only knew
How I long to be part of your heart and soul
And we could hold onto forever
In a moment

People can be such a lonely autumn
But winter never frightens those
Who know the spring
You can never find peace of mind
In the moonlight
But morning sun puts all your doubts to wing

I'm a song, look at me, I'm a serenade
Everything you would want in a grand parade
But I'm just passing through and it won't be long
Until I'm changed into forever
In a twinkling

(short acoustic guitar solo)

And people can be such a lonely autumn
But winter never frightens those
Who know the spring
And you can never find peace of mind
In the moonlight
But morning sun drives all your doubts to wing

I'm a child, look at me, I am growing wings
Butterfly, floating free on the rising wind
I could share it with you if you'd come with me
And we could lose this life together
In a moment

WEB SITE of the WEEK: List member and fellow blogger Zach Y. turned me on to http://swagbucks.com/. It's a search site that pays you "swag bucks" for using it, as well as for many other things. With those bucks, you can purchase gift certificates to online retailers, or spend them on "swagstakes" where prizes such as an iPad or Amazon Kindle are given away.
