My theme song for today

[annathepiper]

Because this is pretty much where I need to be right now. GBS is extremely good at helping me clear my head.


Let It Go
Released February 2004
(written by Doyle/Sampson/Daly)

Hey man, you don't know what you're missing
You count your curses and forget about the blessings
Don't you think you should learn a little lesson
What are you waiting for?

Hey man, what makes you so special
Can't seem to find the angels for the devils
Don't you think that if you learned to love a little
You'd live a whole lot more

Chorus
Let it Go Let it Go
This is smaller than you know
No bigger than a pebble lying on a gravel road
Let it Go Let it Go
Got to leave it all behind you
Give the sun a chance to find you
Let it Go

Lift you head, there's no time for crying
You made your bed but don't think its fit to lie in
Wasted on the ground when you know you should be flying
What are you waiting for?

Chorus

Bridge
How can a man not see
It seems so clear to me
You've just got to live and learn
Smile at the simple stuff
This road ain't long enough
To miss a single turn

Chorus 2x

That must be off the latest album, cause I don't have that song. Which is a pity cause I clearly need it too.

*hugs*

yeah, that's a damn good one. wonder what circumstances brought it to its author's brain?

[annathepiper]

Yep, it's on Something Beautiful*. This ditty and "Something Beautiful", the title track, have been duking it out for the position of song off that album that I need the most when I'm having days like this one.

*snugs a Meems!*

[annathepiper]

Indeed. This and "Something Beautiful" are the two major songs off that album that I need on days like this.

I'll be making a pass or two through the holy trinity of "Ordinary Day", "When I'm Up", and "Mari-Mac", too.

For some reason, Mari-Mac always makes me think of McDonald's.

Ordinary Day is the top song for me to get out of the funk I fall into from time to time.

[annathepiper]

Indeed. :) It provided me amazing comfort when my dad passed away, and it continues to embody the very spirit of why I love GBS so much: pure musical joy.
