Day 36


Towards the beginning of this endeavor to happiness, one of my tasks was to create a playlist for a friend. One of the things I said in that post was that I love being introduced to new music. Music is the gift that keeps giving and it speaks volumes - no pun intended. "Where words fail, music speaks" (Hans Christian Andersen). He was right and that's why I love music so much. While I enjoy writing, there are just some moments in life when I'm unable to write. So, instead I listen to music and sing at the top of my lungs.

Earlier tonight, I was listening to a song by one of my favorite bands, Poema, called Love of My Life. While listening to the song, I scrolled through the suggestions on the side bar and found this little beauty:


Airplanes 
By Local Natives

The desk where you sit inside of a frame 
Made of, made of wood
I keep those chopsticks you had from when you
Taught abroad in Japan

I love it all 
So much I call I want you back, back, back
You back
I did not know you as well as my 
Father knew you 
Every question you took the time to sit and 
Look it up in the encyclopedia

I love it all 
so much I call 
I want you back, back, backYou back
I love it all 
So much I call
I want you back, back, back
You back, yeah

It sounds like we would've of had a great deal 
To say to each other
I bet when I leave my body for the sky the wait
The wait will be worth it

I love it all
So much I call
I want you back, back, back
You back

I love it all
So much I call
I want you back, back, back
You back
