I should be in bed November 18, 2006
Posted by Aaron in : Life , trackbackWell its 3:30, I’ve been debating not going to bed. I should, there is lots of work to do tomorrow. I’d just been putting it off, as I am prone to do. Maybe just because I like staying up late and chain-losing hands of solitaire and/or catching up on tv shows that I may or may not have seen before already. I should go to bed, but I think I’ll see what music yonder shuffle brings, and fling aces kings and queens about with reckless incompetency, if not till the morning, then just a few more songs.
Update: God may not play dice with the universe, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have a sense of humor. Seconds after I initially finished this post, true to what I said, I had windows deal me another hand and I hit play… and here in its entirety is what shuffle brought me:
Looked out my window last night,
From my pillow and I,
Saw the willows weeping a causal sigh.
Man in the moon looked rather,
Sad and confused as if he’d,
Become a mirror into my watery eyes.
I dreamed and prayed through the night,
Please send some grace with your morning light[Chorus]
And he sent you along like a summer day
With a blue-sky smile on your funny face
And a bird flew by singing everything’s gonna be, ok yeah
So we laughed all day with the man in the moon
And we thanked the good Lord for the afternoon
‘Cause he showed me His love by sending me you
And it’s ok now
Everything’s okOpened my window tonight,
Saw the rain falling light,
Whispering that everything in alright.
Long, low, and gentle rumble,
Starts in the west and tumbles,
Across the corners of the colorless sky.
I blow a kiss through the dark,
Sails on the thunder and reaches heaven’s heart.[Chorus]
And he sent you along like a summer day
With a blue-sky smile on your funny face
And a bird flew by singing everything’s gonna be, ok yeah
So we laughed all day with the man in the moon
And we thanked the good Lord for the afternoon
‘Cause he showed me His love by sending me you
And it’s ok now
Everything’s okWe laughed all day,
And we thanked the good Lord,
Cause He showed me His love,
Ok now[Chorus]
And he sent you along like a summer day
With a blue-sky smile on your funny face
And a bird flew by singing everything’s gonna be, ok yeah
So we laughed all day with the man in the moon
And we thanked the good Lord for the afternoon
‘Cause he showed me His love by sending me you
And it’s ok now
Everything’s Ok

And the humor continues, Relient K’s “This Week the Trend”, followed by “The Gospel is Peace” from Smalltown Poets. I’m not going to bother to post their lyrics though, this page could end up being quite large.
God is so poetic!
