sweet spring Saturday

U2 LYRICS

"City Of Blinding Lights"

The more you see the less you know
The less you find out as you go
I knew much more then than I do now

Neon heart, day-glow eyes
The city lit by fireflies
They're advertising in the skies
And people like us

And I miss you when you're not around
I'm getting ready to leave the ground

Oh you look so beautiful tonight...

Don't look before you laugh
Look ugly in a photograph
Flash bulbs, purple irises the camera can't see

I've seen you walk unafraid
I've seen you in the clothes you've made
Can you see the beauty inside of me?
What happened to the beauty I had inside of me?

And I miss you when you're not around
I'm getting ready to leave the ground

Oh you look so beautiful tonight...tonight
In the city of blinding lights

Time...time....time...won't leave me as I am
But time won't take the boy out of this man
Oh you look so beautiful tonight
Oh you look so beautiful tonight
Oh you look so beautiful tonight

In the city of blinding lights,
The more you know
The less you feel
Some pray for, others steal
Blessings not just for the ones who kneel, luckily


 

What a gloriously beautiful spring day this was.  I spent as much time outside as I could, cleaning the leaves and winter debris out of the garden, walking the dog, sitting outside next to Dan (once he got home), both of us holding hands and reading books in the late afternoon sunshine.

Tonight the moon is full in a clear night sky. Coyotes are running through the neighborhood, singing to the moon. How cool is that?
