Collide

The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You’re barely waking
And I’m tangled up in you

I’m open, you’re closed
Where I’ll follow you’ll go
I worry I won’t see your face
Light up again

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
I somehow find you and I collide

I’m quiet you know
You make a first impression
I’ve found I’m scared to know
I’m always on your mind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the stars refuse to shine
Out of the back you fall in time
Somehow find you and I collide

Don’t stop here
I lost my place
I’m close behind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills your mind
You finally find you and I collide

I heard this on the radio today. As it did the first time I heard it, it gave me goosebumps. It’s been a while since I’ve heard it because I have been listening to the 80’s station a lot lately. :D

Everytime J and I hear it when we’re together we smile at each other. The thing I love about this song is how it can be interpreted in so many ways. We interpret it to mean that during good times and bad, they will always be together. That they are meant to be no matter what happens.

Yep, that’s us.

  1. Just in case you didn’t know, this song is by Howie Day. We’re going to see him live on Wednesday, all of his music is amazing, you should check it out if you have a chance.

  2. I knew who it was by. Where are you seeing him? Who are you, btw?
