read between the lines
sing me to sleep this is the song i felt compelled to play, when i was typing out my thoughts on thurs nite on my laptop. i usually play this song when i'm down, so much so until i stopped playing it often...but that nite i just felt i needed god to speak to me thru this song once more. it's from switchfoot's second album, new way to be human, which is a fantastic album to listen to (good on the ears) when one needs soft music (but there are a few loud tracks in there too). this song was played to the strum of a slow guitar, kind of like a melancholy lullaby...when i first heard it, it provided me comfort even though i wasn't feeling particularly down at that time. and jon foreman, the singer, sings real soft here, almost like he's thinking his thoughts aloud, which adds to the mood of the song.
Let That Be Enough (written & recorded on Oct. 21)
by SWITCHFOOT I wish I had what I needed
To be on my own
'Cause I feel so defeated
And I'm feeling alone
And it all seems so helpless
And I have no plans
I'm a plane in the sunset
With no where to land
And all I see
It could never make me happy
And all my sandcastles
Spend their time collapsing
Let me know that You hear me
Let me know Your touch
Let me know that You love me
And let that be enough
It's my birthday tomorrow
No one here could know
I was born this Thursday
22 years ago
And I feel stuck
Watching history repeating
Yeah, who am I?
Just a kid who know he's needy
Let me know that You hear me
Let me know Your touch
Let me know that You love me
Let that be enough. |
