I Melt

Almost every day, sometimes more than once, I melt. An earthen fragrance, a laughing child, or a song...
Here was the song today, on the way home from work at the end of the day.

I'm so thankful for Colleen and for my family. I know it's Easter weekend, but really the whole Easter story is a love story. The mystery of my connection with Colleen commingled with my love for God. The whole Ephesians 5:25 thing. It was Phil Keaggy's version of an old Billy Joel tune...

 She's Got a Way

She's got a way about her
I don't know what it is but I know that I can't live without her
She's got a way of pleasing
I don't know what it is but there doesn't have to be a reason anyway

She's got a smile that heals me
I don't know why it is but I have to laugh when she reveals me
She's got a way of talkin
I don't know why it is but it lifts me up when we are walkin anywhere



She comes to me when I'm feeling down
Inspires me without a sound
She touches me and I get turned around

She's got a way of showin how I make her feel
And I find the strength to keep on goin
She's got a light around her
And everywhere she goes a million dreams of love surround her anywhere

She comes to me when I'm feeling down
Inspires me without a sound
She touches me and I get turned around

She's got a smile that heals me
I don't know why it is but I have to laugh when she reveals me
She's got a way about her
I don't know what it is but I know that I can't live without her anyway

The song is out-of-this-world good. Phil is at his best...melt-worthy.
