Should I Add Another Theme Song?

Randy sent this song to me yesterday after I sent him a text telling him I was freaking out and couldn't breathe. When I talked to him last night I told him I did not understand how all the feelings kept coming at me, and that it was wrong to be falling for him so quickly, no matter how easy he made it. He explained it as being like a campfire. You have a nice fire at your camp and you let it die down, but if you want to build it back up again there is usually an ember or two you can just blow on and the whole thing lights up again. We were in love all those years ago and due to the circumstances at the time we let that die down, but it was never totally gone and now after all these years that love has been exposed to air again and it has come back as strong as before, only better because we have our life experiences to bring to the table, and the issues of the past are no longer part of the equation.  

All really nice words, but I am still ready to go back underneath my bed and hide. 

The other odd thing about him sending me this song is that the sculpture  I wanted and did not buy yesterday was of a woman holding out her arms and copper pieces falling from her hand spelling out "Spread Your Wings.'

He makes it so easy, and I keep making it so hard, but the man does know his music!


Leap Of Faith :
After my baby quit me
I wouldn't even go outside
And when my friends tried to fix me up
I'd crawl up underneath my bed and hide
I knew I was never gonna change my luck
'Til I got my courage up enough to try
And when I went ahead and spread my wings
I found out I could fly

Sometimes all it takes is a leap of faith
Sometimes all it takes is a leap of faith

I had no way of knowing
What would come from our first kiss
It scares me now just to think about
The good love I might have missed
Now I was just trying to find some help
I was trying to see myself as a survivor
I had to rise on up on the ashes of love
And jump back into the fire

Sometimes all it takes is a leap of faith
Sometimes all it takes is a leap of faith

Sometimes you've go to believe
Before you see the proof
You can wait a lifetime
For a moment of truth

Sometimes all it takes is a leap of faith

Sometimes you've go to believe
Before you see the proof
You can wait a lifetime
For a moment of truth

Sometimes all it takes
Sometimes all it takes
Sometimes all it takes is a leap of faith
