Song of the Day

Have you ever had a song that just GOT to you? It seemed as though it was written for YOU, about YOUR thoughts?

I got a few new albums over the weekend, and I started listening to them today during all of my driving time. As I was leaving one rehearsal and on my way to another, one song came up that just hit me like a ton of bricks. The piano introduction got me completely invested, and by the time the lyrics started, I had already determined that it was one of the greatest songs ever written. Then, when I actually heard the lyrics, I felt like Gavin DeGraw had somehow channeled my subconscious into a song. I probably wouldn’t have made dancing references, but hey! It’s my subconscious, er, I mean Gavin Degraw's words...

Enjoy!

“Dancing Shoes” by Gavin DeGraw

It's so nice to see you.
Can we sit and talk for a while?
I have searched forever,
I can't imagine anything better.

Kids upon the stairway,
Couples on the sidewalk squares.
If I get to your heart soon,
I'll call a perfect afternoon.

Won't you call my number.
Don't push, but don't hesitate.
Wake me from this slumber.
Rush me, but leave time to wait.

Checkmate on my shoulder.
I'm tired of this win or lose.
Well, I'm no knight in shining armor,
But I'm no pair of dancin' shoes.
I'm no pair of dancin' shoes.

My patience ran away.
Take me with you.
You keep me holding on.
Nothin's understood
You're so confusing
Tell it to me straight

Won't you call my number.
Don't push, but don't hesitate.
Wake me from this slumber.
Rush me, but leave time to wait.

Rush me but leave time to wait

I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin’ shoes

I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin’ shoes

I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin’ shoes

I got nothin' left to lose
But I'm no pair of dancin’ shoes
