Why

I posted some of my favorite music this week, and one of the songs was Annie Lennox's Why.  I LOVE this song.  I love her voice, I love the lyrics, the emotion.  I have a friend going through some marital ick right now, and this song made me think of her.  And then it made me think of me and my marriage.  Just a great song all around.  Here are a few of my favorite lyrics from the song...


Why |  Annie Lennox

I may be mad
I may be blind
I may be viciously unkind
But I can still read what you're thinking
And I've heard it said too many times
That you'd be better off
Besides...
Why can't you see this boat is sinking
Let's go down to the water's edge
we can cast away those doubts
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me inside out
Turning inside out turning inside out
Tell me...
Why
Tell me...
Why


FAVORITE LYRICS ALERT...RIGHT HERE! (maybe because she screams them in the song and I can totally feel them)
This is the book I never read
These are the words I never said
This is the path I'll never tread
These are the dreams I'll dream instead
This is the joy that's seldom spread
These are the tears...
The tears we shed
This is the fear
This is the dread
These are the contents of my head
And these are the years that we have spent
And this is what they represent
And this is how I feel
Do you know how I feel
'cause i don't think you know how I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
I don't think you know what I fear
You don't know what I fear
