I regularly listen to Pandora or Last.fm at work. I have recently heard a particular song over and over again. I love the song and have since researched it's lyrics. I fell in love with this artist and her words. I just love the rawness of the lyrics and how true the words are about being in the angels keep and trusting that someone has ahold on us at all times. The song lyrics are below. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
I can't tell if Alli is writing to her boyfriend, husband or child. Either way, I'm a fan of her poetic writing and the music that's put with the words.
Check her out here. I can't find a video of her singing this song on Youtube but you can listen to it here on Last.fm. (Click on the play button in the top right corner of the webpage)
and PS: I think I'll add this to my list of "possibilities" for my first dance with my future husband!
Nothing to Cry About
by Alli Rogers
There's nothing to cry about tonight
All your thoughts are brave
But they make you tired
It's only us and the world is small and new
Like I don't know anything
But how I'm in love with you
I'll hold you when the nights get long
And hold you when the times get tough
I'll love you when you've had too much
And love you when you can't get enough
Baby close your eyes
Cause we are in the angels keep
Push your worries all aside
And let me rock you back to sleep
There's nothing to cry about tonight
It's not your job to know if everyone's alright
Let me tell you how perfect you are to me
And we're all that matters now as far as I can see
I'll hold you when the nights get long
And hold you when the times get tough
I'll love you when you've had too much
And love you when you can't get enough
Baby close your eyes
Cause we are in the angels keep
Push your worries all aside
And let me rock you back to sleep
