Live Like We’re Dying – Kris Allen

Well, some people like to throw stones. I prefer to use them to build something useful. Time is flying by, love and live like we’re dying…

Yeah, we gotta start looking at the hands of the time we’ve been given

If this is all we got and we gotta start thinking

If every second counts on a clock that’s ticking

Gotta live like we’re dying

We only got 86,400 seconds in a day to

Turn it all around or to throw it all away

We gotta tell them that we love them

While we got the chance to say

Gotta live like we’re dying

Ben Taylor – Just in Time to Fall Down (Tower for Fools)

A rerun here. Ben Taylor has a mellow voice like his dad and a super song that ranks right up there on my all time list of favorites. Enjoy.

The last verse is worth some reflection…

Just in Time to Fall Down (Tower for Fools)

-Ben Taylor (2002)

I made bricks of my lies, stones of my rules.

I used dreams as my plans, and obsessions as my tools.

You know I built me a great big old tower for fools,

to look down upon the earth and sing the blues.

Just in time to fall down.

In Your Eyes – Peter Gabriel

Current soundtrack to my grading and other office stuff.

in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light
the heat I see in your eyes
