Yours To Keep

I am not one to write about happy things, love that lasts, or sunny skies with no worries.  Maybe it's because I think that is uninteresting and bland.  But it is kind of ironic that as much as I hate simple, plain, happy go lucky things or situations, I feel that is the exact thing I am striving for in life.  Peace, happiness, calm, smiles, no worries, and of course, sleeeeeeeeeeeeep.  So, maybe I should stop fighting the happy boring things, maybe I should start writing more about love that lasts or love that is worth keeping or relationships that never end or sunny skies and birds chirping.  Maybe I should start writing about strength and courage and resilience as opposed to struggling and giving up and hopelessness (ok, I don't think I write about that too much, I hope not!).  But, I woke up today, tired as usual, but my mind, my heart are wanting to be happier, freer, and maybe more optimistic...so, here ya go, a song to illustrate that I don't always need to whine and complain about things not working out, I can actually put myself out there in hopes for a happy ending :)  Here's to happy ending darnit!!

Word by word, cheek to cheek, I’ll be yours, yours to keep
Hand to hand, and eye to eye, you and I, we will fly
So, leave all behind, don’t answer more calls,
Cuz if you want me say you want me
If you need me say you need me
If you want, say you want me,
I’m yours to keep, I'm yours to keep.

Meal by meal, heart to heart, stay with me so we can talk
State to state, soul to soul, you and I, we will hold
So, leave all behind, don’t answer more calls,
Cuz if you want me say you want me
If you need me say you need me
If you want, say you want me,
I’m yours to keep, I’ll be yours to keep.

So give me your heart, say you’ll be mine, and I promise to give you my time
And then you’ll know, and I’ll always show that I love you, and our love will grow…

Word by word and cheek to cheek, I’ll be yours, yours to keep
Hand to hand and eye to eye, you and I we can fly
So leave all behind, and don’t answer more calls cuz
If you want me say you want me
If you need me say you need me
And if you want me say you want me, I’m yours to keep
I’m yours to keep!!!!
