space bar is broke...but this lyrics kind of sum up my mood...
And now,
I miss everything about you
Can't believe that I still want you
And after all the things we've been through
I miss everything about you

Have I found you, flightless bird?
I heard this song and it is really kind of touching. For me the first versre reminds me of my son and this past summer and all the water play we had...
I was a quick, wet boy
diving too deep for coins
yayayay street light eyes
on all my plastic toys
And when the cops closed the fair
I cut my long baby hair
??????
HAVE I FOUND YOOOOUUUUUUU?
FLIGHT. LESS. BIRD
yayayayaay
yayayayay
or HAVE I LOST YOUUUUUUUUU?
AMERICAN. MOUTH.
OK, I don't really know all the words or get the song entirely, but that part reminds me of my son. I picture him just running around with his chest out, doing the toddler chest out run. And his little arms, hands in fists just pumping back and forth fast as he does his fast toddler run, choking out his laughter through his smiling teeth. HAVE I FOUND YOUUUUUU? FLIGHT. LESS. BIRD.
I think I am going to google the meaning...See what the artist was trying to convey. B/c I am probably way off track.
Well, the internet did not turn up anything solid. Just checked out some other bloggers thoughts on the lyrics. To me, the first verse is about my son...
Thinking on children. And songs from soundtracks. I remember the song from the Mama Mia soundtrack. My husband was watching with my nieces when they visited last summer. I was laying down with the baby, trying to put him to sleep. The baby I'm referring to was my then 2-year-old. Always gonna be mama's baby, don't care how old you are. Anyway, that song was also striking. This time b/c of it's description of raising a girl and I thought it was applicable to my relationship with my nieces. The words are below....
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see what's in her mind
Each time I think I'm close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time
