The new day dawns,
And I am practicing my purpose once again.
It is fresh and it is fruitful if I win,
But if I lose,
Ooh,
I don't know.

I'll be tired,
but I will turn and I will go.
Only guessing 'til I get there,
Then I'll know.
Oh,
I will know.

And all the children walking home past the factories
Can see the light
That's shining in my window
As I write this song to you.
And all the cars
Running fast along the interstate
Can feel the love that radiates
Illuminating what I know is true.

All will be well,
Even after all the promises
You've broken to yourself.
All will be well,
You can ask me how
But only time will tell.

The winter's cold,
But the snow still lightly settles
On the trees.
And a mess is still a moment
I can seize until I know.
That all will be well,
Even though sometimes
This is hard to tell,
And the fine is
Just as frustrating as hell,
All will be well.

And all the children walking home past the factories
Can see the light
That's shining in my window
As I write this song to you.
And all the cars
Running fast along the interstate
Can feel the love that radiates
Illuminating what I know is true.

All will be well,
Even after all the promises
You've broken to yourself.
All will be well,
You can ask me how
But only time will tell.

You've got to
Keep it up,
and don't give up,
And chase you're dreams,
and you will find,
All in time.

And all the children walking home past the factories
Can see the light
That's shining in my window
As I write this song to you.
And all the cars
Running fast along the interstate
Can feel the love that radiates
Illuminating what I know is true.

All will be well,
Even after all the promises
You've broken to yourself.
All will be well,
You can ask me how
But only time will tell.

All will be well,
Even after all the promises
You've broken to yourself.
All will be well,
You can ask me how
But only time will tell.
You can ask me how
But only time will tell.

    I kinda like the slower version that is featured in the promo for Conviction (good show, they should've given it a chance). This version has a more uplifting positve feel. You may still be able to find the promo on iTunes. I still watch mine.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
