Just for Now

I heard this clip from my friend Mindy. Mindy has a beautiful voice and a sensitive heart. She's thoughtful in speech and loves silliness and random topics. Therefore she's a friend of mine. And you would like her.
Anyways, before I get quicksanded in photos and words I thought I'd share this with you. It's a bit belated to the Christmas season but it's close enough that it may still ring true.

Imogen Heap singing live - Just for Now.


It's that time of year,
Leave all our hopelessnesses aside (if just for a little while)
Tears stop right here,
I know we've all had a bumpy ride (I’m secretly on your side)

How did you know?
It's what I always wanted,
You can never have too many of these
Will ya quit kicking me under the table?
I'm trying, will somebody make her shut up about it?
Can we settle down please?

It's that time of year,
Leave all our hopelessnesses aside (if just for a little while)
Tears stop right here,
I know we've all had a bumpy ride (I’m secretly on your side)

Bite your tongue
Deep breaths
Count to ten
Nod your head
(sniff sniff)

I think something is burning,
Now you've ruined the whole thing
Muffle the smoke alarm
Whoever put on this music
Had better quick, sharp, remove it
Pour me another
Oh, don't wag your finger at me

It's that time of year,
Leave all our hopelessnesses aside (if just for a little while)
Tears stop right here,
I know we've all had a bumpy ride (I’m secretly on your side)

Will ya get me outta her, Get me outta here, Get me outta here
Just for now
Just for now

Glad to see you back in the blogosphere and glad you're back in the 'Knife again too! We'll have to get together sometime or go for a walk when it's not super cold out.

Well, now, aren't you just the sweetest thing! I feel so honored to be mentioned in your blog! :) THANK YOU for your kind words...and I must say that the feeling, my friend, is most certainly mutual.

As for Imogen Heap, you should really check out her website (http://www.imogenheap.co.uk/) and watch her video blogs...super fun gal.

I so have music geek envy right now.

Love you. Thanks for sharing.
