o bebo...

wanted to update today...but really don't have a solid idea of what i'd say right now. there's been a lot on my mind but i'm not sure how to sort it out quite yet...i'll let you know if i ever do. but in the mean time - lately i've been on a big Bebo Norman kick....his latest album "Try" - o man...lots of good stuff here. i think i'm picking it up tonight so let me know if you want to borrow it...here are two songs that just really hit me hard this week....

Drifting by Bebo Norman

Sometimes when I'm all alone
I don't know if I can
Take another breath
Some say home is where the heart is
Tell me where my home is
Cause I am scared to death

Falling from the rooftop
Crashing like a raindrop
Can you make my heart stop
Shaking like a leaf
Standing at the floodgate
Steady as an earthquake
Can you hear my heart break
Tearing at the seams

I am drifting in the deep end
Holding on to your hand
Is all that saves me now
Life can treat you like a beggar
You hold me together
But I don't know how

Falling from the rooftop
Crashing like a raindrop
Can you make my heart stop
Shaking like a leaf
Standing at the floodgate
Steady as an earthquake
Can you hear my heart break
Tearing at the seams

Some say home is where the heart is
And my heart is in your hands
You are all I need

Rising from the ashes
lifted from the madness
Now you see my heart is
Deep enough to dream
Heal me from the deathblow
Lead and I will follow
Now you feel my heart glow
Mending at the seams

Soldier
Remember the time when i thought of letting go
and taking back my hand
when all i could think was how long can i follow you
and where do i stand in this world

i lost my faith, my reason to believe
when i refused to see
oh Lord, you carried me

and just like a soldier
you battle for my soul
but more like a father
you come and take me home

what is the worth of a man living for himself
with a heart of his own
and every day goes in and out, still without a sign of life

but father wont you please give me more
when everything is closing in on me
i know you set me free the day you died for me
and how is this man who calls me by name
and covers himself with all of my shame
but not even death could make you surrender
i remember
