Wonderful World

This is absolutely one of my favorite songs from one of my favorite musicians. I highly recommend his (James Morrison) album. I'm posting a live clip because he really is amazing (and also because it wouldn't let me embed the one good clip of the video I found ha).

And....and things are just a mess right now so I'm working like a lunatic (15 hour days anyone?) trying to keep my mind focused on the important things. Like surviving. Life is SO much and rather than cope I work. I'm working, it has become my excuse for everything. And I rationalize the "excuse" because really I AM WORKING (no, really, I'm working right now). If I'm not at one job I'm at the other. Weekends? Working. Evenings? Working. Early mornings? Well...then I'm sleeping but I'm still in the office by 9:30 AM at the latest. I guess there are worse ways to avoid your problems. At least it results in the new jeans I found at Nordstom last weekend! I'll throw in a pair of shoes...just for good measure heh. What do you guys do when you are stressed, upset, or just trying to avoid life in general?



I've been down so low
People look at me and they know
They can tell something is wrong
Like I don't belong

Staring through a window
Standing outside, they're just too happy to care tonight
I want to be like them
But I'll mess it up again

I tripped on my way in
And got kicked outside, everybody saw...

And I know that it's a wonderful world
But I can't feel it right now
Well I thought that I was doing well
But I just want to cry now
Well I know that it's a wonderful world
From the sky down to the sea
But I can only see it when you're here, here with me

Sometimes I feel so full of love
It just comes spilling out
It's uncomfortable to see
I give it away so easily
But if I had someone I would do anything
I'd never, never, ever let you feel alone
I won't I won't leave you, on your own

But who am I to dream?
Dreams are for fools, they let you down...

And I know that it's a wonderful world
But I can't feel it right now
Well I thought that I was doing well
But I just want to cry now
Well I know that it's a wonderful world
From the sky down to the sea
But I can only see it when you're here, here with me

And I wish that I could make it better
I'd give anything for you to call me, or maybe just a little letter
Oh, we could start again

And I know that it's a wonderful world
But I can't feel it right now
Well I thought that I was doing well
But I just want to cry now
Well I know that it's a wonderful world
From the sky down to the sea
But I can only see it when you're here, here with me

And I know that it's a wonderful world
I can't feel it right now
I got all the right clothes to wear
I just want to cry now
Well I know that it's a wonderful world
From the sky down to the sea
But I can only see it when you're here, here with me

And I know that it's a wonderful world
When you're with me
