Day 4
This song is "On My Own" from the Musical Play "Les Miserables". It is sung by the character 'Eponine'. In this song she is talking about this man she loves "Marius", but he has fallen in love with another woman. Her life has been dark and lonely.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nrgnDDmRt0 This is Samantha Barks singing in the Les Miserables 25th anniversary.
And now I'm all alone again nowhere to turn, no one to go
to
without a home without a friend without a face to say hello to
And now
the night is near
Now I can make believe he's here
Sometimes I walk
alone at night
When everybody else is sleeping
I think of him and then I'm
happy
With the company I'm keeping
The city goes to bed
And I can live
inside my head
On my own
Pretending he's beside me
All alone
I
walk with him till morning
Without him
I feel his arms around me
And
when I lose my way I close my eyes
And he has found me
In the rain the
pavement shines like silver
All the lights are misty in the river
In the
darkness, the trees are full of starlight
And all I see is him and me forever and forever
And I know it's only in
my mind
That I'm talking to myself and not to him
And although I know that
he is blind
Still I say, there's a way for us
I love him
But when
the night is over
He is gone
The river's just a river
Without
him
The world around me changes
The trees are bare and everywhere
The
streets are full of strangers
I love him
But every day I'm
learning
All my life
I've only been pretending
Without me
His world
would go on turning
A world that's full of happiness
That I have never
known
I love him
I love him
I love him
But only on my
own

Day 3/30
Day 3- "Sticking With You" By Addison Road.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMd-Moj1dNA
Come on, it's me you're talking to
there's something going on inside of you
don't have to say it, but I wish you would
cause it would be much easier
You always hide behind yourself
you walk a lonely road with no one's help
I hate to break the news
you're headed for a fall
And if I have to jump
then I'll jump
and I won't look down
you can cry, you can fight, we can scream and shout
I'll push and pull
until your walls come down
and you understand I'm gonna be around
I'm sticking with you
I'm sticking with you
Even if you try and shut me out
I'm staying here 'cause thats what love's about
I might let you down, but I won't let you go
So lean into me, I want to know
Everything about the fear you hold inside
'cause you and I are better than just one so
If I have to jump
then I'll jump
and I wont look down
you can cry, you can fight, we can scream and shout
I'll push and pullFind More lyrics at www.sweetslyrics.com
until your walls come down
and you understand I'm gonna be around
I'm sticking with...
If that's what it means to love you
If that's what it means to have your back
If that what it takes to show you
Then I'm in, I'm in
If I have to jump
then I'll jump
and I wont look down
you can cry, you can fight, we can scream and shout
I'll push and pull
until your walls come down
and you understand I'm gonna be around
And if I have to jump
then I'll jump
and I wont look down
you can cry, you can fight, we can scream and shout
I'll push and pull
until your walls come down
and you understand I'm gonna be around
I'm sticking with you
I'm sticking with you
I'm sticking with you

Day 2/30
This song is "The Call" By Regina Spektor. This song is in "Prince Caspian" From "The Chronicles of Narnia".
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7uoC-YTQy8
It started out as a feeling
Which then grew into a hope
Which then turned into a quiet thought
Which then turned into a quiet word
And then that word grew louder and louder
'Til it was a battle cry
I'll come back when you call me
No need to say goodbye
Just because everything's changing
Doesn't mean it's never been this way before
All you can do is try to know who your friends are
As you head off to the war
Pick a star on the dark horizon and follow the light
You'll come back when it's over
No need to say goodbye
You'll come back when it's over
No need to say goodbye
Now we're back to the beginning
It's just a feeling and no one knows yet
But just because they can't feel it too
Doesn't mean that you have to forget
Let your memories grow stronger and stronger
'Til they're before your eyes
You'll come back when they call you
No need to say goodbye
You'll come back when they call you
No need to say goodbye

30 Day Song Challenge
Hey Everyone,
So this is the 30 Day Song Challenge. I will post one song a day, as well as a link to the song. I would love for you all to send me a song a day too. :) Then, at the end of the 30 days, I will post all of the songs you send me. :)
My first song is "You Are More" By Tenth Avenue North. It is a really pretty song. :) Here are the lyrics and a link. :)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3GOtpwITPQ
There's a girl in the corner
With tear stains on her eyes
From the places she's wandered
And the shame she can't hide
She says, "How did I get here?
I'm not who I once was.
And I'm crippled by the fear
That I've fallen too far to love"
But don't you know who you are,
What's been done for you?
Yeah don't you know who you are?
You are more than the choices that you've made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade.
Well she tries to believe it
That she's been given new life
But she can't shake the feeling
That it's not true tonight
She knows all the answers
And she's rehearsed all the lines
And so she'll try to do better
But then she's too weak to try
But don't you know who you are?
You are more than the choices that you've made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade.
You are more than the choices that you've made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade.
'Cause this is not about what you've done,
But what's been done for you.
This is not about where you've been,
But where your brokenness brings you to
This is not about what you feel,
But what He felt to forgive you,
And what He felt to make you loved.
You are more than the choices that you've made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade.
You are more than the choices that you've made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade
