have a little faith

I see it's been a month since my last post. Wow. Time just flew by. I wish I could say I'd done something fabulous in that amount of time but I haven't. People in my circle of influence have died and others have gotten sick. Some have gotten better and others probably won't. No babies have been born but an impending arrival has been announced. Simply put...life is happening all around. Time marches on whether you are ready for it or not. I heard this song playing in the background of the latest episode of ABC's Brothers & Sisters. It just seemed to express what I'm feeling right now. It's not the song you all think it is, that one is called "Have a little faith in me" slight difference in title yields totally different lyrics. The title below is linked to a youtube video of him performing live so it sounds a bit different than if you were to go buy the track but it's just as great if not even better....

Have A Little Faith as sung by Michael Franti

I know it's hard when you're down
and the bad times seem to follow you around
and they got no reason to show
Don't let it go, oh no
and when it's 3 in the morn
and you've told your whole life story to a telephone
and the radio's the only thing to let you know
You're not alone, oh no

Just have a little faith in me
I'll have a little faith in you
So have a little faith in me
Don't let it go, oh no
And I wish I was there
Just to run my own fingers through your worries and cares
Even though I fumble and fall
Don't let it go, oh no

and when the rain falls down
You know the flower's gonna bloom
and when the hard times come
You know the teacher's in the room
and when the sun comes up
You know that I'll be there for you

Don't let it go, oh no
Just have a little faith in me
I'll have a little faith in you
Uh huh
So have a little faith in me
Don't let it go, oh no

Just have a little faith in me
Uh huh
I'll have a little faith in you
So have a little faith in me
Don't let it go
Don't let it go
Don't let it go
Don't let it go
Don't let it go

Just be strong for me
I'll be strong for you
Just be strong for me
I'll be strong for you
Just be strong for me
I'll be strong for you
Just be strong for me

Don't let it go
Don't let it go
Don't let it go
Don't let it go
Don't let it go

Oh...
Don't let it go

Oh...
Don't let it go

Oh...
Don't let it go
Don't let it go
