it's music

sometimes, hearing something new

sometimes, when i’m feeling blue

sometimes, singing about you

it’s music

sometimes, with a beat to dance

sometimes, needing to romance

sometimes, in a joyful trance

it’s music

always, lullabye to sleep

always, wishing dreams to keep

always, stirring in the deep 

it’s music

always welling in my heart

always giving a new start

always known, and ne’er to part

it’s music

i’ve woken up, begun my day;
i’ve started things, and it’s okay.

and though i haven’t stretched or showered,
i’ll be there in just one hour.

my husband, he is proud of me.
my Jesus tells me i am free.

so i’ll get through this daily grind,
and for my sanity, remind:

i’ve woken up, begun my day;
i’ve started things, and it’s okay.

i have Lyme disease; i'm always stiff and sore. stretching for half-a-stinking-hour every morning helps me get through the day. but stretch + shower = one hour. so i often put it off until noon and then regret it. i resent my morning routine and my lazy, ensuing attidue. but this is my life, and i'm learning to find freedom in it.

excuse me... i've gotta go stretch!
