SONG OF THE MOMENT:
For My Love
by Bethany Dillon (www.bethanydillon.com)

WHY ITS THE SONG OF THE MOMENT:
Because it is

FROM THE ARTIST, IN HER OWN WORDS:


"It’s deeply rooted in every woman- the question, “Do I stand out in a crowd?” The vision of someone walking across a room and asking me to dance plays over and over in my mind; out of the whole room, I was chosen. I’ll be honest, I’m fifteen… I have crushes… but more than whimsical feelings and fickle emotion, I really do want to be fought for. I long to be recklessly pursued. I’m looking for true love, something honest and untainted, with no hidden agenda but that it wants to chase after me.

I love Psalm 45: “Listen to me, O royal daughter; take to heart what I say. Forget your people and your homeland far away. For your royal husband delights in your beauty.” That’s it! That’s what every chick flick revolves around, that’s what every romance novel is written about, those are the exact words that made me want to be a princess when I was younger.

The sad reality is, though, that women often aren’t validated and reassured that they’re worth that kind of affection. It scars us in the deepest places and causes us to cover our mouths when we smile and hide who we truly are."



THE LYRICS

Walk towards me
I want to hear
The heavens singing over you
When you breathe
And look at me
I want to be captured by you

Gaze into my eyes
And let me know you’d fight
Thousands, for my love
Slip your hand in mine
Ask me to dance with you tonight
Just ask me for my love

I want to hide
What’s deep in my eyes
I’m scared to be known by you
But when I turn my head
And see you there
I want to be pursued

A dream I won’t wake from
A story that will never end
The ground your feet walk on
Let me be there, let me be there

went to PF changs with bub and mom and yvonne...

later that night went to cheesecake factory with renee and yvonne

friday night went out to eat with mom and bub and an old family friend, steph, and zach.

then we went to best buy and mom and bub (and maybe some others are gonna pitch in money for it) bought me a cd player for my car...good times...i've never had a cd player in my car before.

then all of us went to Scoreboards to sing Kareoke and have some drinks...that was super fun...bubby bought me two drinks....and then i eneded up getting bought another one and three shots from various people who got them for me since they found out it was my birthday


so my car's new cd player was cristened with DW's "Table for Two" because Zach bought me the CC Chronicles Cd for my birthday...how sweet of him! So we sat in my car in the Best Buy parking lot and busted out a little of that song as the first song to play in the new stereo...fun times!
