I Need You – (Plato’s Groove & Act of Congress – 2006)
Longing focused on person, object, God
Sometimes I get lost and I have found
That as this world keeps on spinning round
The distractions of the day
Aren’t enough to make you go away.
You haunt me – mmmm – You haunt me.
When I sense you near my anticipation grows
And I know sometimes that my frustrations shows
But like a drowning man needs air
It’s hard to breath without you here.
You heal me – mmmm – You heal me.
You know the wonder of you takes me breath away
With a yearning much too deep for words to say
I know no matter what I do
No one can fit me quite like you.
You fit me – mmmm – You fit me.
As I wait for you the clock it moves so slow
And I’m not so sure if time is friend or foe
For the place I want to be
Is with you eternally.
I need you – mmmm – I need you.
– You haunt me –
– You heal me –
– You fit me –
– I need you –
Cool tunes, keep up the solid work 🙂
Thanks for stopping by. Peace
That’s so cool and awesome. yes. I love AOC. i love country music. their music is brilliant. i listen to them on youtube. no doubt they must be beautiful and you too! thanks. will check out the Well. am sniffing good your stuff. pleasure all mine. feeling good and blessed.
You know of them? What part of the planet are you on? I would love to tell them that I met you here in cyberspace.
Wow! you got cool strings 🙂 beautiful plucking. and voice is so real and easy. i guess we are all struggling to find ourselves somewhere out there or deep within, and I believe you’ve found your groove.
Thats how I wish I could sing. The people who recorded that for me are a band called Act of Congress. I think we did that in 2006 or so. They recorded it at one of their houses. I have known them since they were in college. They are all grown now and professional. There is a post on the Groove called the Well. Its a youtube link of one of their songs. They are well worth listening to. They are brilliant and beautiful people. Thank you so much for taking the time to look at some of my “stuff.”
But wouldn’t it be the feminine side of me since that’s what I struggled with for all those years? I was a hell of a tomboy. Very comfortable with that.
Its a hall of mirrors. Most of my friends were girls. That part lives ourside us it think. I dealt with her outside myself. Now I’m trying to go to the source. I’ve been looking down the hall of mirrors seeking to fix heal help the images i saw there. I became very good at what I do because I could see my need in others. I knew what to do cause it was what I needed. I just didn’t know it was me I was looking at. A lot of this is so new and a little wierd I am struggling to find words to describe the experience. It feels a little crazy. But I don’t mind that. Sanity almost killed me:)
This is a beautiful song. My mind automatically went to God when I was listening. Are these guys actually a praise band-type group?
But then I reread the words with what you said in mind. Found that a very interesting exercise. Though the focus should have been different, the feelings were almost the same. Don’t believe I’ve ever said that to my other “half.” But she and I have come to a somewhat uneasy truce over the last ten years or so.
You certain have a way of stirring up “topics” for me. Going to have to start making a list! Thanks for suggesting this. I hadn’t had a chance to finish perusing your site. Hopefully today will be a bit quieter while I’m doing laundry and I can catch up with you.
Your other half is a He:)
