Adam Young

Dear Adam Young,

It's a beautiful night
I'm looking for someone that's true
Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you

Is it the lyrics you sing?
Or is it the life you choose?
Who cares baby? I think I wanna marry you

Well I know this little church in Brighton, Michigan we can go
Invite everyone we know
Com'on boy

Who cares about the past, I just know that we'll last somehow
After your show
And it's on boy

Don't say no, no, no, no-no;
Just say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah;
And we'll go, go, go, go-go.
If you're ready, like I'm ready.

Cause it's a beautiful night
I'm looking for someone that's true
Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you

Is it the lyrics you sing?
Or is it the life you choose?
Who cares baby? I think I wanna marry you

You can go get a ring, while the Choir members sing like Ooooo
So what'cha wanna do?
Let's just run boy

If you don't want to, then you don't have to, it's cool
But I really like you
It'd be fun boy

Don't say no, no, no, no-no;
Just say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah;
And we'll go, go, go, go-go.
If you're ready, like I'm ready.

Cause it's a beautiful night
I'm looking for someone that's true
Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you

Is it the lyrics you sing?
Or is it the life you choose?
Who cares baby? I think I wanna marry you

Just say I do
Tell me right now baby
Tell me right now baby

Just say I do
Tell me right now baby
Tell me right now baby

It's a beautiful night
I'm looking for someone that's true
Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you
Is it the lyrics you sing?
Or is it the life you choose?
Who cares baby? I think I wanna marry you! ;)

Keep singing Adam! Even if you marry someone else, I'll still admire you just as much haha, not that you'll ever see this post anyways. I know the song is terrible, but it has a good sound and was begging to become a parody for something better :). Anyways, you're awesome and like a thousand times better than Bruno Mars. Keep up the good work, and keep the faith! I'm praying for you.
Your dedicated fan girl, Sarah <3

2012

It's officially the 3rd day of the new year and already I see the switch just ahead where my life's train will change to the track of college and work again.  *sigh* It was inevitable, but I think change can be a good thing, even if you aren't looking forward to it.  For example, I'll have class, work, and homework to do, so while I won't be able to sluff off all day doing nothing of consequence, I also won't be getting lazy and useless.  I need to be of use, if I didn't I'd be dead.  God still has something in store for me.  So, change is coming.  Nothing I haven't done before, but I hope I can deal with this change better than I ever have before.  I don't want to just go to work and pass my classes, I want to really actually learn things, feel renewed strength as I wait on the Lord for the desires of my heart.  Basically John Foreman of Switchfoot said it best- "I want to thrive not just survive" I want to Thrive this year!  And with the Lord's help I certainly shall :)

"No I'm not alright
I know that I'm not right
A stirring wheel don't mean you can drive
A warm body don't mean your alive

No I'm not alright
I know that I'm not right
It feels like I travel but I never arrive
I want to thrive not just survive
I want to thrive not just survive"
-Switchfoot (on their newest album Vice Verses)

Variations on familiar songs...according to me this Christmas of 2011

Christmas time is here
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all, until I recall
That's everyone but me

Snowflakes not in the air
Carols sung nowhere
Oh that I, wasn't so spite-
ful All throughout this year...

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
In a year your troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Forget the words I say
I've had a year of troubles leading to today

Here you are as in olden days
Happy golden days of your
Faithful friends who are dear to you
Gather near to you once more

Through the years you all will be together
If the Lord allows
As for me, I'll have to muddle through somehow
But have yourself a merry little Christmas now...

Rocking around the Christmas....wait we have no tree
Well I guess that makes this song meaningless...for me...

In fact no snow also means the songs:
Sleigh ride, frosty the snowman, rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, winter wonderland, and every other song mentioning snow or things made of snow are completely out...

Silver and gold
Silver and gold
Everyone wishes for silver and gold
How do you measure it's worth?
Just by the greed that it spreads here on earth

Silver and gold
Silver and gold
Means so much less when I see
Silver and gold decorations on someone else's Christmas tree...

So, we take away the merry, the money, the tree, and the snow, and now the true meaning of Christmas is all we have left, but somehow that's all that matters....

Away in a manger no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus lays down his sweet head
The stars in the sky look down where he lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay...

Hark! the Harold angels sing
Glory to the new born King!
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled...

Joy to the world!
The Lord has come
Let earth receive her King...

O come let us adore Him
O come let us adore Him
O come let us adore Him-
Christ the Lord!

You can have this whole world, but give me Jesus!  Hope in Jesus is what I have left this Christmas, and it's more than enough...thank  you Lord.

HAHA

Finally, a place I know no one and no one can give me their unwanted counsel or berate me or judge me for something I did or did not say.

Something on my mind...

There's nothing to do
So, I'm thinking of you
I just can't control
Where these thoughts flow
And I wish it weren't so

I'm trying to think
But I can hardly blink
Without a thought of you
Crossing my mind too
And I don't know what to do

Because you take my concentration
As I sit in contemplation
Of what I'm going to do
With these thoughts of you
You don't know what you put me through

Something on my mind is you
