by Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros
Her: Alabama, Arkansas

I do love my Ma and Pa

Not as much as I do love you

Him: Holy roly, me, oh my
you're the apple of my eye
Girl, I've never loved one like you

Her: Man, oh man, you’re my best friend,

I scream it to the nothingness

There ain’t nothin’ that I need

Him: Well, hot and heavy, pumpkin pie,

chocolate candy, Jesus Christ

There ain’t nothin’ please me more than you

Both: Ahh, Home

Let me come Home

Home is wherever I’m with you

Ahh, Home

Let me come Home

Home is wherever I’m with you

La la la la, take me Home

Baby, I’m coming Home

Him: I’ll follow you into the park,

through the jungle, through the dark

Girl, I’ve never loved one like you

Her: Moats and boats and waterfalls,

alley ways and pay phone calls

I’ve been everywhere with you

That’s true

Him: We laugh until we think we’ll die,

barefoot on a summer night

Nothin’ new is sweeter than with you

Her: And in the sticks we’re running free

like it’s only you and me

Geez, you’re something to see.

Both: Ahh, Home

Let me come Home

Home is wherever I’m with you

Ahh, Home

Let me come Home

Home is wherever I’m with you

La la la la, take me Home

Baby, I’m coming Home

“Jade?”

“Alexander?”

“Do you remember that day you fell out of my window?”

“I sure do, you came jumping out after me.”

“Well, you fell on the concrete and nearly broke your ass and you were bleeding all over the place and I rushed you off to the hospital. Do you remember that?”

“Yes, I do.”

“Well, there’s something I never told you about that night.”

“What didn’t you tell me?”

“While you were sitting in the backseat smoking a cigarette you thought was going to be your last, I was falling deep, deeply in love with you and I never told you ‘til just now.”

“Now I know.”

Ahh, Home

Let me come Home

Home is whenever I’m with you

Ahh, Home

Let me come Home

Home is when I’m alone with you

Home

Let me come Home

Home is wherever I’m with you

Ahh, Home

Yes, I am Home

Home is when I’m alone with you.

Alabama, Arkansas,

I do love my Ma and Pa

Moats and boats and waterfalls and pay phone calls

Ahh, Home

Let me come Home

Home is wherever I’m with you

Ahh, Home

Let me come Home

Home is when I’m alone with you

Philosophy

Talent is God given: be humble.

Fame is man given: be thankful.

Conceit is self given: be careful.

-------------------------------------

Be good to yourself.

Be excellent to others.

And do everything with love.

-------------------------------------

Life is change.

Growth is optional.

Choose wisely.

-------------------------------------

Hard work beats talent,

when talent doesn't work hard.

-------------------------------------

It is my deepest and sincerest belief

that we all have a responsibility to

take care of one another.

Quotes Worth Quoting

In All Things, Everything.

People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is light from within. -Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again, but life goes on. We must remember that.

Your outlook on life is a direct reflection on how much you like yourself. -Lululemon

We must be aware that we come from the same source... the illusion of separateness is what divides us!

Men, for the sake of getting a living, forget to live. -Margaret Fuller

Whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

When you are able to embrace All That Is in love, all there is is love.

We are what we repeatedly do.

What you resist, persists.

There is no seperation between God & us. We are divine expressions of the creative principle. -Shakti Gawain

We don't see things as they are; we see them as we are. -Anais Nin

Be simple, be innocent, be present and your life will be charmed. -Deepak Chopra

At the CORE

In terms of spirituality/ holiness/ godliness... briefly:

"I think that you have every right to cherry-pick when it comes to moving your spirit and finding peace in God. If humanity never evolved in its exploration of the divine, a lot of us would still be worshipping golden Egyptian statues of cats. And this evolution of religious thinking does involve a fair bit of cherry-picking. You take whatever works from wherever you can find it, and you keep moving towards the light.

Even in the most unlikely and conservative of places, you can find sometimes this glimmering idea that God might be bigger than our LIMITED RELIGIOUS DOCTRINES have taught us.

I see the universe in terms of karma, a process of constant circulation, which is to say that you don't really "end up" anywhere at the end of your life-not in heaven or hell-but just get recycled back to the earth again in another form, in order to resolve whatever relationships or mistakes you left uncompleted last time."
