Any other way?

Mediocrity has always been a safe place for me. Average.
But these days, with everything in my life pointing towards "more"
I have to start dealing with "more" - "above average" - "better"
rObC bought the soundtrack of Shrek the Third and there I found this little GEM.
I think this will be the theme song to all the new adventures I intend to accumulate!
This song makes me feel..
I imagine the wind blowing through my hair and my heart soars!




Other Ways - Trevor Hall

As I walk one day
I feel like a clown
in a circus of my own,
oh, my cover, it's blown.
Feel like I got a heart made of teer,
I thought of you this mornin'.

Well I sleep into a stay
as I awake, well,
I start to frown
but than I can't get your smoke out of my eyes.
I guess I lose, guess you win,
I thought of you this mornin'.

Well, I think about all the other ways I could have played,
all the other simple moves I could have made,
all the other calls that I could have dealt,
all the books I didn't read upon my shelf,
all the other ways I could have sung my songs -
realize that none of it went wrong...it was all play -
how could it be any other way?
How could it be any other way?

Now that the chains are off I'm free to roll.
Everywhere I go I feel like I'm home.
Nothing hides, everything is shown,
Cesar is with me, I'm never alone.
Guess you lose, guess you win,
I thought of you this mornin'
Well, I think about all the other ways I could have played,
all the other simple moves I could have made,
all the other calls that I could have dealt,
all the books I didn't read upon my shelf,
all the other ways I could have sung my songs -
I realize that none of it went wrong...it was all play -
how could it be any other way?

How could it be any other way? (repeat)

With my heart soaring it feels much easier to do "better" and "more"!
This is going to be fun!

Glad you enjoyed the CD, now I want to hear it too! :-)

Yep, I agree, I would not have done anything any other way... I mean I cannot imagine not having my kids, my friends or not meeting you for that matter.
However... could have braked a tad harder and not clipped the pavement... hindsight is an unforgiving mistress sometimes.
