30 Days of Truth--Day 09

Day 09:  Someone you didn’t want to let go, but just drifted.

Hmm. There are a lot of people who have drifted away from me. Mostly because I am horrible at keeping up correspondence. However, I think that someone who I really wanted to keep in touch with that just drifted away is my good friend Elyse. We were SUPER close from the time I moved to Hawaii all through high school, but as time wore on, we just drifted apart. I totally miss her, and we still talk occasionally, but it just isn't the same.

Wow! Well, Prescott is AWESOME! We are staying at this sweet vacation rental, and so it's been super fun. I think the part I love most is just being around my family. I never really grew up knowing my mom's side of the family, so it has been super awesome to forge relationships with them in the last 5 years. :)

Song for today is an oldie, but I totally love this version. You can't find the CD anymore (it was before the era of iTunes and Kazaa) because the band broke up, but it is still one of my VERY favorite songs. :)

Drift Away
by: Colon

Day after day I'm more confused,
I look for the light in the mornin' rain,
you know that's the game that i hate to lose,
but I'm feelin' the strain, ain't it a shame

Chorus:
Oh, give the beat boys and free my soul,
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.
Give me the beat boys and free my soul,
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.
won't you take me awa--y, yeah.

beginning to think that I'm wastin' time,
I don't understand the things i do,
the world outside is so unkind,
but I'm countin' on you, to carry me through.

Chorus:
Oh, give the beat boys and free my soul,
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.
Give me the beat boys and free my soul,
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.
won't you take me awa--y, yeah.

And when my mind is free,
no melody can move me,
when I'm feelin' blue,
guitars are comin'through to soothe me

Chorus:
Oh, give the beat boys and free my soul,
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.
Give me the beat boys and free my soul,
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.
won't you take me awa--y, yeah.

And thanks for the joy that you're givin' me,
I want you to know I believe in your song,
rhythm and rhyme and harmony,
you help me along, makin' me strong.

Chorus:
Oh, give the beat boys and free my soul,
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.
Give me the beat boys and free my soul,
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.
won't you take me awa--y, yeah. (x2)
