"The Truth Today..."

Today is an anniversary of sorts for Stephen Christopher Harris and myself... As I told him yesterday evening, it marked the moment that I began to believe that nothing was impossible - at least not where love was manifest. This day will be nothing like "that day," but thankfully I will be at work this evening and that will help the time and the memory to pass more quickly. Nevertheless, I expect to be reminded of "that fateful day" many times while I am working. This song, although it's not about what happened that day, reminds me of it and of Stephen Christopher Harris.


"This is a song that I've grown to really like... I hear it at least 5-6 times a day at work, it's in the corporate playlist in thousands of locations. When I hear it, it reminds me of Stephen Christopher Harris and I say a prayer for him."



"Picture"
Kid Rock and Sheryl Crow

Livin' my life in a slow hell
Different girl every night at the hotel
I ain't seen the sunshine in 3 damn days

 Been fuelin' up on cocaine and whiskey
Wish I had a good girl to miss me
Lord, I wonder if I'll ever change my ways

 I put your picture away
Sat down and cried today
I can't look at you while I'm lying next to her

 I put your picture away
Sat down and cried today
I can't look at you while I'm lying next to her

 I called you last night in the hotel
Everyone knows but they won't tell
But their half hearted smiles tell me somethin' just ain't right

 I've been waiting on you for a long time
Fuelin' up on heartaches and cheap wine
I ain't heard from you in 3 damn nights

 I put your picture away
I wonder where you've been
I can't look at you while I'm lyin' next to him

 I put your picture away
I wonder where you've been
I can't look at you while I'm lyin' next to him

 I saw you yesterday with an old friend
It was the same old same how have you been
Since you've been gone my world's been dark and gray

It reminded me of brighter days
I hope you'd be coming home to stay
I was headed to church
I was off to drink you away

 I thought about you for a long time
Can't seem to get you off my mind
I can't understand why we're living life this way

 I found your picture today
I swear I'll change my ways
I just called to say I want you to come back home

 I found your picture today
I swear I'll change my ways
I just called to say I want you to come back home

 I just called to say I love you
Come back home

  "Happy Anniversary to Us"
