Question of the Day!

Highly emotional moments deserve songs.... so here are two important ones for me:

What is a line from a song - a song lyric - that has always stuck with you?

Leader of the Band



"But his blood runs through my instrument and his song is in my soul
My life has been a poor attempt to imitate the man
I'm just a living legacy to the leader of the band"

This song came out just after my dad died. I was twelve and it really hit home. My dad was not all that musical, I get my musical talents from my mother and her mother, but the strength of DAD hit home with this. I was his living legacy... his only child.

And... A Thousand Years



"I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more"

This is a song that came out after I lost one of my cats - I actually lost 3 over the course of 4 years and they each meant so much to me. These lyrics spoke to me as I remembered them and the fact that they each chose me to be their person. They each left their mark on me and I am forever grateful for having had each of them in my life.
