Love Is Waiting

LOVE IS WAITING

In the autumn on the ground
Between the traffic and the ordinary sounds
I am thinking signs and seasons
While a north wind blows through

I watch as lovers pass me by
Walking stories, who’s and how’s and why’s
Musing lazily on love, pondering you

Let’s give it time, give it space
And be still for a spell
When it’s time to walk that way
We wanna walk it well

CHORUS
I’ll be waiting for you baby
I’ll be holding back the darkest night
Love is waiting ‘til we’re ready
‘Til it’s right
Love is waiting

It’s my caution not the cold
There’s no other hand that I would rather hold
The climate changes, I’m singing for strangers about you

Don’t keep time, slow the pace
Honey hold on if you can
The bets are getting surer now
That you’re my man

CHORUS

Bridge
I could write a million songs about the way you say my name
I could live a lifetime with you and then do it all again
And like I can’t force the sun to rise
Or hasten summer’s start
Neither should I rush my way into your heart

C.S. Lewis Song

C.S. LEWIS SONG

If I find in myself desires nothing in this world can satisfy
I can only conclude that I was not made for here
If the flesh that I fight is at best only light and momentary
Then of course I’ll feel nude when to where I’m destined I’m compared

CHORUS
Speak to me in the light of the dawn
Mercy comes with the morning
I will sigh and with all creation groan
As I wait for hope to come for me

Am I lost or just less found,
On the straight or on the roundabout of the wrong way?
Is this a soul that stirs in me,
Is it breaking free, wanting to come alive?

‘Cause my comfort would prefer for me to be numb
And avoid the impending birth
Of who I was born to become

CHORUS

Bridge
For we, we are not long here
Our time is but a breath
So we better breathe it
And I, I was made to live
I was made to love
I was made to know you
Hope is coming for me

CHORUS

Music Headache!

I don't know if it's just me, but have you ever had a music headache? I wonder, is there such thing? I've been having really hard sleeping issues this past week. The week before last, because of my health problems, I was going to bed at 8pm every night! That is very different for an average 15 year old these days! I read my Bible and pray every night before my lights go off. I really don't get it. I think, will reading a reassuring and comforting Psalm help when David was having troubles? I try it, but it never works. I lay my head down on my big fluffy pillow, curl up like a baby, hug my teddy bear, and pull up my warm feather comforter and begin to fall asleep. Suddenly, a song get's popped into my head. Doesn't matter what song, whether it's what I'm studying in piano, what we are singing in choir at school, or the fun jazzy Michael Buble, or even my favorite band Casting Crowns, it won't go away!! I get my ipod out and listen to the song and hope that it will get out of my head. Nope, that didn't work, and definently made it worse! So, I watch a funny Pixar Short Film that would hopefully distract my mind a bit. Nope, that just made it worse! So, I get out my journal, and start writing down whatever comes to my mind first. Does that help? Nope, it just made it worse! All these thoughts are just running through my head and won't go away!! I've been a week behind in school; trying my hardest to catch up to the peeps in my class, so it's been a little bit stressful. So, all these tests I'm studying for are building up more and more. I'll be laying there with my eyes open and suddenly a thought of what kind of ion is in a base from my physical science class will come into my head. Then a crazy idea of a new invention! Or, what it would be like to become a famous chef! ALL THESE RANDOM MUSIC AND THOUGHTS WON'T GO AWAY! What a music headache.....maybe I should not listen to any music for a month! If anyone has any ideas please comment on this post! I've tried most everything. I've even tried to drug myself with Benadryl, and that doesn't work. I'll prop my head up and try to sleep so all the blood doesn't rush to my brain, and that doesn't seem to work either. I'll play games on my laptop to try and make my eyes tired, and that doesn't work either! What is wrong with me? WILL THIS EVER STOP!!!!!! Anyone!!! JUST GIVE ME SOME ADVICE!!!! SOMEONE!!!!!!!! if you don't have any, and are having the same problems, maybe we could chat....and create some new medicine for the sleeping disorder. That's it! I have a sleeping disorder!!! Why do I still seem tired, even though I can't fall asleep. I've been so tired lately; yawning, drooping eyelids, dark circles under my eyes, but I still can't make myself fall asleep. Something is wrong, and I don't know what.

Someday, this music headache has got to stop!
