I've been listening to Sarah Bareilles for quite a while now...even before they started playing her songs a million times a day on the radio. She's definitely one of my favorite artists right now. She has a song called "Many The Miles" that I think pretty much sums up how I've been feeling about life in general for some time. Here it is:
There's too many things that I haven't done yet
Too many sunsets I haven't seen
You can't waste the day wishing it'd slow down
You would've thought by now I'd have learned something
I made up my mind when I was a young girl
I've been given this one world
I won't worry it away
But now and again I lose sight of the good life
I get stuck in a low light
But then love comes in
How far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
Many the miles
How far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
But send me the miles and I'll be happy to follow you love
I do what I can wherever I end up
To keep giving my good love
And spreading it around
Cause I've had my fair share of take care and goodbyes
I've learned how to cry
And I'm better for that
How far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
Many the miles
How far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
Send me the miles and I'll be happy to follow you love
Red letter day and I'm in a blue mood
Wishing that blue would just carry me away
I've been talking to God
Don't know if it's helping or not
But surely something has got to got to got to give
Cause I can't keep waiting to live
How far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
Many the miles
How far do I have to go to get to you
Many the miles
But send me the miles and i'll be happy to
There's too many things I haven't done yet
Too many sunsets I haven't seen
