"Laugh in the sunshine, sing, cry in the dark, fly through the night..."

Long As I Can See The Light by Creedence Clearwater Revival

Keeping the light in the center of my view! TGIF. "But I won't, won't, Be losin' my way, Long as I can see the light..."

Put a candle in the window 
'Cause I feel I've gotta move. 
Though I'm goin', goin'
I'll be comin' home soon
Long as I can see the light. 

Pack my bag and let's get moving 
'Cause I'm bound to drift awhile. 
Though I'm gone, gone 
You don't have to worry 
Long as I can see the light. 

Guess I've got that old travelin' bone
'Cause this feeling won't leave alone.
But I won't, won't 
Be losin' my way 
Long as I can see the light.

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Oh yeah

Put a candle in the window
'Cause I feel I've gotta move
Though I'm goin', goin'
I'll be comin' home soon
Long as I can see the light
Long as I can see the light
Long as I can see the light
Long as I can see the light
Long as I can see the light.

Hey Girl by O.A.R.

This song makes me want to sing super loud and dance in my seat!!!  Love all the different instruments in this version. The lyrics are all sorts of mixed up but they make me smile:) 
"My friends say she's crazy, and I agree, That's OK that's the way I like to be!"
"In my mind, I miss you, every night that you're not there, And all I'd like to do is sit around and breathe your air!!!"

I took this girl out last night and we left around twelve.
We walked along lonely streets and got to know ourselves.
I like to read, she likes to write.
She likes to sleep, and I love to stay up all night.
My friends say I'm crazy and I agree,
But that's okay cause that's the way I like to be!!!!

Hey girl, come with me and let yourself go.
Hey girl, come with me and let yourself go.

??????
But she didn't care, I didn't mind.
I was unaware that she liked to act so kind.
My friends say she's crazy and I agree,
Oh but damn girl, that's the way you got to me!!!

Hey girl, come with me and let yourself go.
Hey girl, come with me and let yourself go.


Hush my little baby, don't you say a word, 
Cuz I'm gonna give you everything I promised I would. 
Hush my little baby, please don't say a word, 
Cuz I'd like to give you everything I promised I would. 
Well I'll give you my heart and I will give you all my soul. 
And you can have my money, 
And if you'd like, you can have control. 
And all I want from you is love, and a little bit of faith, 
And maybe trust, honesty, goes a long, long way. 

In my mind, I miss you, every night that you're not there, 
And all I'd like to do is sit around and breathe your air. 
And although you don't feel the things that I might do, 
All i need is just you. 

Hey Girl, come with me and let yourself go, come on. 
Hey Girl come with me and let yourself go, go, go, just let yourself go. 
My baby, my darlin, let yourself go. 
My honey, my bunny, just let it all go. 
My peachy, just let yourself go.

I say now,
Hey girl, come with me and let yourself go

Angie by Gov't Mule

Not even "trying" is the worst! "Ain't it good to be alive/"

Angie, Angie
When will those clouds all disappear?
Angie, Angie
Where will it lead us from here?
With no lovin' in our souls and no money in our coats
You can't say we never tried
But Angie, Angie
You can't say we're satisfied.

Angie, you're beautiful
But ain't we said goodbye
Angie, I still love you baby
Remember all those nights we cried
All the dreams we held so close
Seemed to all go up in smoke
Let me whisper in your ear
Angie, Angie
Where will it lead us from here? Yeah

All the dreams we held so close
Seemed to all go up in smoke
Hate that sadness in your eyes
But Angie, I still love you baby
Everywhere I look I see your eyes
There ain't a woman that comes close to you
Come on baby dry your eyes
But Angie, Angie
Ain't it good to be alive!!!!!
Angie, Angie, you can't say we never tried

Bird Song by the Grateful Dead

Sometimes you hear a song at the most perfect of times!!! "Don't you cry, dry your eyes on the wind..."



All I know is something like a bird within her sang
All I know she sang a little while and then flew on
Tell me all that you know, I'll show you snow and rain

If you hear that same sweet song again, will you know why?
Anyone who sings a tune so sweet is passin' by
Laugh in the sunshine, sing, cry in the dark, fly through the night

Don't cry now, don't you cry, don't you cry anymore
Sleep in the stars, don't you cry, dry your eyes on the wind

All I know is something like a bird within her sang
All I know she sang a little while and then flew off
Tell me all that you know, I'll show you snow and rain
