Okay so my mom was on her way home the other day from work and heard this song on the radio and I definitely love her response to it. She came home and tells me, oh by the way I was on my way home and 107.7 was on and I heard this song and it just sounded like a Penny song. I had to laugh. I'd never heard that from anyone before and so I look up the song and she knew it was by Idina Menzel from her new album. So I looked up the words and then listened to a clip of it and it was just amazing. So I definitely agreed. it just sounds like a Penny song!
so here it is:
Rest of blog to follow!
Brave
by Idina Menzel
I don't know just where I'm going
And tomorrow is a little overwhelming
And the air is cold and I'm not the same anymore.
I've been running in your direction for too long now,
Lost my own reflection and I can't look down
If you're not there to catch me when I fall.
If this is the moment I stand here on my own,
If this is my right of passage that somehow leads me home,
I might be afraid but it's my turn to be brave.
If this is the last chance before we say goodbye,
At least it's the first day of the rest of my life,
I can't be afraid 'cause it's my turn to be brave.
All along, all I ever wanted was to be the light
When your life was daunting but I can't see mine,
When I feel as though you're pushing me away.
Well who's to blame? Are we making the right choices?
'Cause we can't be sure, if we're hearing our own voices,
As we close the door, even though we are to desperate to stay.
If this is the moment I stand here on my own,
If this is my right of passage that somehow leads me home,
I might be afraid but it's my turn to be brave.
If this is the last chance before we say goodbye,
At least it's the first day of the rest of my life,
I can't be afraid 'cause it's my turn to be brave.
And I might still cry,
And I might still bleed,
These thorns in my side,
This heart on my sleeve.
And lightening my strike this ground at my feet,
And I might still crash,
But I still believe...
This is the moment I stand here all alone,
With everything I have inside, everything I own,
I might be afraid but it's my turn to be brave.
If this is the last time before we say goodbye,
At least it's the first day of the rest of my life,
I can't be afraid, it's my turn to be brave.
so... I just bought the album and I love it. This song just explains everything I've been going through. Stress, finishing school, and being able to be brave and keep going from here.
I'm very scared to leave and go away. I probably cry about it at least 3 times a week with Sam. And he always does the same thing. He wipes away my tears, kisses me, tells me how beautiful I am and what a strong person I am, how I'm going to have fun, and how everything is going to be okay, and the best thing of all, how he is going to be right here waiting for me through it all.
I honestly don't know how I got so entirely lucky that this boy seems to think I'm the most beautiful girl ever and how I'm amazing and funny and everything. And above all he puts up with everything about me. Every quirk, insecurity, everything. I couldn't have asked for a better person to fall completely in love with. I didn't really even ask for him, he just kind of fell into my lap. It was just basically a fluke and I wouldn't take that moment back for anything. I love him with every inch of me. Every blood cell, every fluid, intestine inside me.
You know I heard something in a song once saying that when our heart breaks and that person comes along that they plant seeds in those cracks and flowers bloom in those cracks. I was lucky that he caught me with just a few bruises and slight cracks but those flowers sure did bloom quickly! Again, I have no idea why I got so lucky and why I even deserve him but I sure don't plan on letting him go anytime soon!
Sam Clein, I love you with everything and I'm so happy your in my life!
