Missing You...
A couple friends of mine are getting married in late August. Yesterday she asked me if I could suggest any songs to play at the wedding and/or reception. “Sure I can - I can give you an entire play list”, I told her. So I did.
Then I heard a song on my way to work this morning and I thought how appropriate it would be to include it. I keep a kind of a “Song of the Day” journal. Every day it seems that a song will just pop into my head - without even hearing it - that reflects the general mood of the day (but we’re not actually influenced by Pop Culture, are we?). So I do a search on the lyrics, copy them into a Word doc, and file it away in a couple different places.
Anyway, as I looked at the lyrics (I’ve never been the huge Whitesnake fan -what exactly IS a Whitesnake anyway? - and probably haven’t actually listened to the song for more than 10 years) it occurred to me that it actually has quite a lot of meaning to my own life these days.
I never thought that I could ever feel any more in love as I have been feeling over the past few years. But, as “they” say: “Absence makes the heart grow fonder…”
Is This Love?
~Whitesnake~
I should have known better
Than to let you go alone,
It’s times like these
I can’t make it on my own
Wasted days, and sleepless nights
And I can’t wait to see you again
I find I spend my time
Waiting on your call,
How can I tell you, baby
My back’s against the wall
I need you by my side
To tell me it’s alright,
’cos I don’t think I can take anymore
Is this love that I’m feeling,
Is this the love, that I’ve been searching for
Is this love or am I dreaming,
This must be love,
’cos it’s really got a hold on me,
A hold on me...
I can’t stop the feeling
I’ve been this way before
But, with you I’ve found the key
To open any door
I can feel my love for you
Growing stronger day by day,
An’ I can’t wait to see you again
So I can hold you in my arms
Is this love that I’m feeling,
Is this the love, that I’ve been searching for
Is this love or am I dreaming,
This must be love,
’cos it’s really got a hold on me,
A hold on me...
Is this love that I’m feeling,
Is this the love, that I’ve been searching for...
Is this love or am I dreaming,
Is this the love, that I’ve been searching for...
