Life or Something Like It

Life SHOULD NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well- preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally WORN out and screaming "WOO HOO - WHAT A RIDE!!!"

I was thinking of this song. I thought I would look it up, and sure enough I found it. Words and all. I think alot of my friends, my sisters, and me, can relate to the words. I've always liked it. I wanted to put it on here. I lost the music and lyrics along time ago and have kind of forgotten about it.

Karl and I sang this song together a long time ago. I'm not sure if you remember or not Karl. I think it was the first time I ever really sang in front of anyone. I sang melody and you sang harmony. I was really nervous, and it was kind of disastrous cause my microphone wasn't working, and so only you, the harmony could be heard. I think I still have that tape though. Maybe I'll look for it tonight.

THE WARRIOR IS A CHILD

Lately I've been winning battles left and right
But even winners can get wounded in the fight
People say that I'm amazing
Strong beyond my years
But they don't see inside of me
I'm hiding all the tears

They don't know that I go running home when I fall down
They don't know who picks me up when no one is around
I drop my sword and cry for just a while
'Cause deep inside this armor
The warrior is a child

Unafraid because His armor is the best
But even soldiers need a quiet place to rest
People say that I'm amazing
Never face retreat
But they don't see the enemies
That lay me at His feet

They don't know that I go running home when I fall down
They don't know who picks me up when no one is around
I drop my sword and and cry for just a while
'Cause deep inside this armor
the warrior is a child

I still have the sheet music to this song, I vividly remember your duet and it was NOT a disaster. I've sung it a few times in the years since, yes, it is a really good song.

For the wild at heart,

Kept in cages."
