Strip away my work persona, my tough exterior, and this is me. I discovered this song in college and it has always stuck. I don't like this you tube version, but it is what I could find
I was thinking that I might fly today Just to disprove all the things you say It doesn't take a talent to be mean Your words can crush things that are unseen So please be careful with me, I'm sensitive And I'd like to stay that way. You always tell me that is impossible To be respected and be a girl Why's it gotta be so complicated? Why you gotta tell me if I'm hated? So please be careful with me, I'm sensitive And I'd like to stay that way. I was thinking that it might do some good If we robbed the cynics and took all their food That way what they believe will have taken place And we can give it to people who have some faith So please be careful with me, I'm sensitive And I'd like to stay that way. I have this theory that if we're told we're bad Then that's the only idea we'll ever have But maybe if we are surrounded in beauty Someday we will become what we see 'Cause anyone can start a conflict it's harder yet to disregard it I'd rather see the world from another angle We are everyday angels Be careful with me 'cause I'd like to stay that way
"The Change" by Garth Brooks, or "Anyway" - Martina McBride
(lyrics for "The Change" here; "Anyway" is easy to find)
"One hand Reaches out And pulls a lost soul from harm While a thousand more Go unspoken for And they say 'What good have you done, By saving just this one? It's like whispering a prayer in the fury of a storm'
And I hear them saying 'You'll never change things And no matter what you do It's still the same thing' But it's not the world that I am changing I do this so This world will know That it will not change me
This heart still believes That love and mercy still exist While all the hatreds rage And so many say That love is all but pointless In madness such as this 'It's like trying to stop a fire With the moisture from a kiss'
And I hear them saying 'You'll never change things And no matter what you do It's still the same thing' But it's not the world that I am changing I do this so This world will know That it will not change me
As long as one heart still holds on Then hope is never really gone
And I hear them saying 'You'll never change things And no matter what you do It's still the same thing' But it's not the world that I am changing I do this so This world we know Never changes me
What I do is so This world will know That it will not change me..."

I love that one Mel, it has been so long since I've heard it. Off to youtube it :)
I don't really have ONE song, I seriously consider my life to have it's own soundtrack and even Joe laughs at how seriously I take my music.
Currently my songs playing are all sappy love songs LOL
Smile - Uncle Cracker You and Me - Dave Matthews (my favorite line of this song is "And when the kids are old enough we're gonna teach them to fly") I Miss You - Incubus Baby - BuckCherry
