Hear Me You

Who would have thought that a band called Jimmy Eat World could bring comfort to those in need? Adam, that's who. Adam sent this song to his mother (Adrienne) and I cried my heart out, again, when I heard it so I am posting the lyrics below. I would give my fortune (yeah, like that's impressive) to be able to sing one more song to her.

There's no one in town I know
You gave us some place to go
I never said thank you for that
'thought I might get one more chance

What would you think of me now?
So lucky, so strong, so proud
I never said thank you for that
Now I'll never have a chance

May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads, the sleepless go
May angels lead you in

So what would you think of me now?
So lucky, so strong, so proud
I never said thank you for that
Now I'll never have a chance

May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads the sleepless go
May angels lead you in

(May angels lead you in)
May angels lead you in
(May angels lead you in)
May angels lead you in

And if you were with me tonight
I'd sing to you just one more time
A song for a heart so big
God couldn't let it live

May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads the sleepless go
May angels lead you in

May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads the sleepless go
May angels lead you in

One

One year ago
One year ago we knew
One year ago we knew we had to let go

We had to let go of our anchor and set ourselves adrift
We had to let go of our anchor and let it sink to the bottom to rest

To no longer feel the ebb and flow
To no longer feel the tug and pull
To no longer feel the weight and pain

We are still drifting
