I was watching Space Channel and Star trek:Enterprise came on. I think the theme song is PERFECT.
It's been a long road Getting from there to here It's been a long time But my time is finally near
And I can feel the change in the winds right now Nothing's in my way And they're not gonna hold me down no more No there not gonna hold me down
Cause I've got faith of the heart I'm going where my heart will take me I've got faith to believe I can do anything I've got strength of the soul And no one's gonna bend or break me I can reach any star I've got faith I've got faith Faith of the heart
It's been a long night Trying to find my way Been through the darkness Now I finally have my day And I will see my dreams come alive at last I will touch the sky And they're not gonna hold me down no more No there not gonna change my mind
Cause I've got faith of the heart I'm going where my heart will take me I've got faith to believe I can do anything I've got strength of the soul And no one's gonna bend or break me I can reach any star I've got faith Faith of the heart
I've known a wind so cold and seen the darkest days But now the winds I feel, are only winds of change I've been through the fire and I've been through the rain But I'll be fine
Cause I've got faith of the heart I'm going where my heart will take me I've got faith to believe I can do anything I've got strength of the soul And no one's gonna bend or break me I can reach any star I've got faith
I've got faith of the heart I'm going where my heart will take me I've got strength of the soul And no one's gonna bend or break me I can reach any star I've got faith I've got faith Faith of the heart
Just trying to find your way anywhere But you�ve come to find you�re alone Its getting dark and you�ve lost your way I haven�t let you go as long as you know that..
I�m losing what�s left of my dignity But ill fight till the end for her heart Ill never give up for what�s possibly For better for worse this love must be cursed
Just try to keep your head down But you come to find that trust has come and gone Everyone out there is listening But you don�t care at all and you�re probably glad to know
I�m losing what�s left of my dignity But ill fight till the end for her heart Ill never give up for what�s possibly For better for worse this love must be cursed
You already let it pass through your lips you can�t take it back now [x4]
I�m losing what�s left of my dignity But ill fight till the end for her heart Ill never give up for what�s possibly For better for worse this love must be cursed
Holding on to her This love must be cursed I�m holding on to her This love must be cursed I�m holding on
I�m afraid to say she never made it home Couldn�t keep her head on She was so close I�m afraid to say she never made it home [x5
Standing on top of the edge it feels like it's going down Everything stays in my mind feeling in a daze on the ground Feels like it's gonna give life's to hard to live anymore I think I've had enough things too tough I'm out the door
All in all it's just another day now You're falling down What you gonna do Standing on top of the world tonight No ones looking back at you
Stand tall It's going on It's going on It's gonna be just fine You're holding on Holding on today
Things don't stop and the others announced they're moving on Salt & tears in the minds in the mouths of a bad decision Too late for another mistake it's bringing me down With all your faults it isn't your fault what's going on
All in all it's just another day now You're falling down What you gonna do Standing on top of the world tonight No ones looking back at you
Stand tall It's going on It's going on It's gonna be just fine You're holding on Holding on today
So you lost yourself So you lost your way Found life through someone else But you threw it all away
All in all it's just another day now You're falling down What you gonna do Standing on top of the world tonight No ones looking back at you
Stand tall It's going on It's going on It's gonna be just fine You're holding on Holding on today
Times rolling on rolling on today It's going on Going on today
I was out mowing the lawn today listening to an unreleased album from a sadly unheralded band called Little Feat (although they've been one of my favorites for years!) and on came one of Alan Toussaint's songs they made popular, "On Your Way Down"
Quote
On Your Way Down -- Alan Toussaint
Sunrise Sunset Since the beginning it hasn't changed yet People fly high begin to lose sight You can't see very clearly when you're in flight
It's high time that you found The same people you misuse on your way up You might meet up On your way down
Vintage wines from the year '62 It's your thing, it's your thing It pleases you You got to frown when you cross town You think it's an honor just to have you around
It's high time that you found The same dudes you misuse on your way up You might meet up On your way down
You think the sun rises and sets for you But the same sun rises, sets and shines On the poor folks too I don't mind you turning round I myself would even like a little higher ground
It's high time that you found The same people you walk on on your way up You might meet up On your way down On your way down
Sadly, I can't find a YouTube video of Feat doing this number, but there is a passable version done by Gov't Mule:

This is a cool song by Three days Grace and it is kind of helping me through some rough patches in Plan B. It is good to be able to SCREAM songs every once in a while(or daily as needed ).
Gone Forever"
Don't know what's going on Don't know what went wrong Feels like a hundred years I Still can't believe you're gone So I'll stay up all night With these bloodshot eyes While these walls surround me with the story of our life
I feel so much better Now that you're gone forever I tell myself that I don't miss you at all I'm not lying, denying that I feel so much better now That you're gone forever
Now things are coming clear And I don't need you here And in this world around me I'm glad you disappeared So I'll stay out all night Get drunk and f'in fight Until the morning comes I'll Forget about our life
I feel so much better Now that you're gone forever I tell myself that I don't miss you at all I'm not lying, denying that I feel so much better now That you're gone forever
First time you screamed at me I should have made you leave I should have known it could be so much better I hope you're missing me I hope I've made you see That I'm gone forever
And now it's coming clear That I don't need you here And in this world around me I'm glad you disappeared
I feel so much better Now that you're gone forever I tell myself that I don't miss you at all I'm not lying, denying that I feel so much better now That you're gone forever And now you're gone forever And now you're gone forever
In a relax and let the insults of life wash over you vein -
I ran across an old friend this morning:
These guys were new age before new age was a buzzword.
This tune always made me think of floating in air. So I made a tape of it and carried it with me when I soloed in my ultralight many years ago. I also listened to it continuously while soaring off the cliffs of the Na Pali Coast after the first D-Day of the VLTA.
Helped me along, it did.
Also reminds me of Hebrides Overture (Fingal�s Cave).
[The site Weaves, 2L and I usually post tunes for each other is down today. So I thought I would place this here for all to hear.]

This song is not about an affair or a d-day in my life, or any thing like that, it's about my DH and the way he keeps saying "yes, but that was before!!!!!!"
To explain, he left me a few months ago. He packed up everything he owned (and even some of the stuff I owned ) and headed back up north. He did say I could go with him, if I wanted to. But, it seemed really closer to an after thought, than a request, if you know what I mean.
Anyway, I let him go. I have moved three different times since I married him and wasn't about to move again. Plus, he was acting really wayward in my opinion, so I thought it best to stay put and let him go.
After a few weeks he asked to come back. I have to say that I was really heartbroken and having a very, very hard time, but I didn't let on. I just decided I would be okay and it was probably for the best and to let him go. I did a little plan A on the phone by not love busting, but I certainly wasn't trying to meet any of his needs. I was just trying to act with grace and class, even though inside and to my friends, I was a basket case.
Now, he is back and we are both working hard to make this marriage work and to be good to the other.
Anyway, this song is for him. Even though he doesn't read here and does not especially like this place. Actually, he can't stand it.
So, maybe this is for me. It's a great tune, and I happened to have seen Jonny Lang in a bar in my home town when he was about 16 years old, and he was incredible. I normally can't stand blues, but his voice is just unbelievable.
