1. Beautiful....
Thank you...
:loveya:
I came here at the right time to find myself...eerie

Right outside this lazy summer home
you ain't got time to call your soul a critic no.
Right outside the lazy gate of winter's summer home,
wond'rin' where the nut-thatch winters,
wings a mile long just carried the bird away.

Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world,
the heart has it's beaches, it's homeland and thoughts of it's own.
Wake now, discover that you are the song that the mornin' brings,
But the heart has it's seasons, it's evenin's and songs of it's own.

There comes a redeemer, and he slowly too fades away,
And there follows his wagon behind him that's loaded with clay.
And the seeds that were silent all burst into bloom, and decay,
and night comes so quiet, it's close on the heels of the day.

Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world,
the heart has it's beaches, it's homeland and thoughts of it's own.
Wake now, discover that you are the song that the mornin' brings,
But the heart has it's seasons, it's evenin's and songs of it's own.

Sometimes we live no particular way but our own,
And sometimes we visit your country and live in your home,
sometimes we ride on your horses, sometimes we walk alone,
sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own.

Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world,
the heart has it's beaches, it's homeland and thoughts of it's own.
Wake now, discover that you are the song that the mornin' brings,
But the heart has it's seasons, it's evenin's and songs of it's own.

peace~

4. I had to : )
I've been drowning in music for I don't know how many days...
The lyrics are intense ...
I read so much into this song...never heard it before...
Just love it....
There's a reason that you're a Dead head....
:loveya:

peace~

3. I wonder if they were the inspiration for this masterpiece:


That sounds about right. Grateful Dead and Kinkade are like Kylie Minogue and Jackson Pollock! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cU-yNFZ4iWg

:woohoo:


Want some egg nog?

5. Santa babyyyyy....
Believe it or not, I have never actually dranken, er...drunken, er...drunk, er...drank? eggnog.

We owed a diner when I was young...it had a real milkshake machine. My dad used to make me drink vanilla shakes that had a raw egg in them. I could never get past that gross out factor. The word eggnog reminds me of that, so I never tried it.

:hi:
