Last of the Ones

I’ve been sitting pretty. I’ve been standing still. But, you move me to pieces with just your force of will. And, oh, how much I suffer for all my thinking small while you walk up in wonder and have no fear at all and now I’d like to know what it’s like to have the world at your command, drop the reigns when life gets heavy in your hands. With a spark of youth and a heart so full, you’re my living proof that everything is possible and now I’d like to know what it’s like to be you as you’re living every moment. Must be nice to be you taking life with arms wide open. I think I’d like to know what it’s like Will you show the world to me, the one I need to know, with the innocence you see so I can watch you go, watch you go. And you keep running with your head held high, your arms outstretched, a smile the only reason why. And now I’d like to know what it’s like to be you as you’re living every moment. Must be nice to be you taking life with arms wide open. I think I’d like to know what that’s like.I can love you like me. I can love you like me in this song

Brighter than anything else at this distance I know it seems larger than life but it isn’t the world that you’re in, it’s just the world that you are Nothing warms up in this light. It’s like it’s never inside. You just hope that it might be what you think that you need in your life if you can stay who you are. . Don’t you know that you’re the moon? When you suffer in your silence, I’m a tide that you have moved. I come rushing by your guidance. Turning and turning away, I thought you’d leave me alone in the mess that we made but you just follow your course and you’re home. It’s just a matter of time. I feel your heat at the door. I wanted light but it’s burning like never before. Maybe it feels like you’re going too far because you’re reaching so high. Don’t you know that you’re the sun? You are turning with such violence. I am taken and undone. I am burning in the brightness. Oh my love, let’s see how far you can go. I don’t know how you don’t know that you are what you are. Oh my love, let’s see how far you can go. I don’t know how you don’t know that you are what you are. Oh my love, you’re just like the stars above Don’t you think that you’re not enough ‘cause I know that you are…

I can love you like a song, give you words to sing along, all the words you want to hear I can love you every day so I never miss your face should the daylight disappear then, I can love you in a dream keep you coming back to me if you have to leave me here I can love you like me. I can love you like me but in this song. I can love you like a storm then settle down and keep you warm, be the place you want to go I can love you like a wave, come in crashing on your day and, should you find your nights alone, Then, let me love you like my heart’s wrapped around you in the dark, be you mine to have and hold I can love you like me. I can love you like me but in this song. Others can take all of these words and make the same mistakes we’ve made that I won’t erase. There’s not a single moment that I’d ever trade. I want to love you like it’s wrong, wrap the words around my tongue, let the meaning fall below. Just, let me love you until it’s right, leave the questions all behind because, believe me, now I know.

If you stare too long at a picture frame, you turn to gray You want to add some color back again, well, that’s okay I can tell you what it feels like when you come inside I want to lose myself for a little while. Can you help me hide? I’ve been waiting on the hourglass with you, my friend And I’ve had moments of such purity and you knew me then You’ve been kind enough to walk with me so far off track I just want to be myself for a little while. Can you take me back? You’re the last of the ones who know. You’re the last of the ones who know I know. You’re the last of the ones who know I know. I know, I know. In the world that we’ve been walking in, I’m well aware That only we can see the truth of this and, no, they don’t care And I don’t even want the ability to make them see I just want to find out who I am again, who you let me be You’re the last of the ones who know. You’re the last of the ones who know I know. You’re the last of the ones who know I know. I know, I know I’ve written every song I could possibly and this still won’t leave me alone It comes into my head like a prophecy. It comes out of my mouth like my own. No one has to tell me, I’ve been told

Quiet Now 04:26
Why are you quiet now, why are you quiet now Why are you in your head I want you to come out and tell me all about the things you haven’t said let me get you over it, take off all that’s on your mind lay your head upon my lap and let the words unwind When you look at me this time just tell me it’s alright to be this way Why are you holding back Why are you holding back There’s no other place to be We are just here and now We know what we’re about Nobody else can see So let me get you over it Why let all the world decide Wrap your arms around my waist Cause we won’t be denied Lay here in my arms,be just who you are. I want to be awake We’ll just wander in the ways that we are loved that no one can explain When you look at me this time just tell me it’s alright to be this way What if we let it go What if we let it go Maybe the world will change Maybe a heart would have a chance To stop and learn to beat in other ways So let me get you over it we don’t have to be defined Put your hand inside my hand and, baby, nevermind Lay here in my arms,be just who you are. I want to be awake We’ll just wander in the ways that we are loved that no one can explain When you look at me this time just tell me it’s alright to be this way credits

Find A Way 02:58
I’ll find a way to be nice when I want to be unkind I’ll find a way to be quiet when I want to speak my mind I’ll find a way to be here even though you don’t need me I know I cannot be right all the time. It’s not possible And, time will not always move Time will not always move Time will not always move so slowly When I find a way to be loved in a way that you’ll know you’re loved And I can push you clear of my solid grip on fear And I know my mind so my heart won’t be far behind And you’ll know where I am even though you don’t understand How time will not always move Time will not always move Time will not always move so slowly Oh but, everybody knows…everybody knows Everybody knows how you can’t see when you’re too close But I’ll find a way, I’ll find a way, I’ll find a way

about

Laura Marie San Antonio, Texas

Now the reason we're here
Every man, every woman
Is to help each other
Stand by each other
When love walks in the room
Everybody stand up
Oh it's good, good good
Say I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you - The Pretenders

At some point in my life, I heard this song and decided (before I knew I decided) that my life purpose was to send a "message of love". Be <3
