Tuesday Tunes

This is starting to become a rather infrequent posting. For whatever reason, as I was indulging in my latest Facebook addictions (Bejeweled Blitz and Farkle) and listening to Pandora, I felt the urge to go ahead and put up a Tuesday Tunes post this evening.

I've been on a bit of a Lifehouse kick lately. I like the mellow rock sound that they have, but I also think the lyrics are fantastic (at least most of the time).

When I listen to this song, I hear somebody struggling with something that life has thrown at him. Apparently, one of the band members wrote this song for a girl that he had been friends with for a long time and who had just gotten out of a serious relationship. I think one of the great things about music is that it can speak to us in different ways depending on where we are in life. It's a great song. The clip below is from their Unplugged set on VH1 in October 2007.

Somewhere in Between lyrics

I cant be losing sleep over this, no I cant

And now I can not stop pacing

Give me a few hours, Ill have all this sorted out

If my mind would just stop racing

Cause I cannot stand still

I cant be this unsturdy

This cannot be happening

This is over my head but underneath my feet

Cuz by tomorrow morning Ill have this thing beat

And everything will be back to the way that it was

I wish that it was just that easy

Cuz Im waiting for tonight

Then waiting for tomorrow

And Im somewhere in between

What is real, and just a dream

What is real, and just a dream

What is real, and just a dream

Would you catch me if I fall out of what I fell in

Dont be surprised if I collapse down at your feet again

I dont want to run away from this

I know that I just dont need this

Cause I cannot stand still

I cant be this unsturdy

This cannot be happening

Cuz Im waiting for tonight

Then waiting for tomorrow

And Im somewhere in between

What is real, and just a dream

What is real, and just a dream

What is real, and just a dream
