I've missed you all!!

Hello Everyone!!
I have missed all of you dearly, and I sit here in the car just jammin away I thought id share with ya'll what ive been doing for the past hour or so. I only share this with ya'll because 1) I know you will only make fun of me a little bit 2) you know these songs 3)you know how much i love to write things just about anything for that matter

Before you can begin you need to know that I once again have messed up the spelling and connotation of words and that is how this began. All of us are familiar with Moulin Rouge, in that movie there is a song called "Elephant Love Medley". Here they composed a song, by using about 12 different parts of different songs. I thought it was so cool, and well I've always wanted to do that. So in high school I did, and then again I did it today, however until today I thought that word was "Melody". Melody and Medley definitely mean two different things.

As I sat here in the car and listened to my usual playlist of songs, one of which is the Miley Cyrus song When I look at you (thank you MM for that one) she says,
“Everybody needs inspiration, everybody needs a song. A beautiful melody when the nights so long cause there is no guarantee that this life is easy. When the world is falling apart. When there is no light to break in the dark. That’s when I look at you.”

Ok so first of all I agreed with her, but I also at the time was thinking melody and medley meant the same thing, hope you are still following. So I decided I was going to write a "Melody" haha but really its a medley anyways its to God. Crazy I know, but I always have these bits and pieces of songs that I love and wish I could put together so I did and well I hope
Warren Barfield, Addison Road, and Meredith Andrews won't mind, because I used those lyrics----keep in mind too that this song clearly has no tune, and well you just kind of read it like a poem or short story or something I don't know.

here goes nothing--Caroline's Medley inspired by Miley's need for a beautiful melody
(things in quotes are still from songs, but I imagine thats what God would say back :-)

I searched for love

When the night came and closed in

I was alone but you found me

And now I’ll never ever be the same

“My Love I’ve never left your side.”

In this beautiful broken world

We laugh and then we cry

There is no reason, you know why, there is no rhyme

All I have is you

Chorus

You are always by my side

Your love is the one thing I can’t run out of

Your love is a shelter in a raging storm

Your love is a peace in the middle of a war

Love is not a fight but

Your love is worth fighting for

Chorus

You are always by my side

Your love is one thing I can’t run out of

If everything comes down to love

Then just what am I afraid of?

Everything rides on Hope

Everything rides on Faith

Livin in this beautiful broken world with you

I have come to understand the worth of a friend

Dear friend you have spoken the truth over my life

and they will never know what it means to me

Chorus

You are always by my side

Your love is the one thing I can’t run out of

Let your heart be my eyes

My vain ambitions die

Because I’m living for something more

You’ve become my hearts desire

And I will sing your praises

Because your love has set me free

Chorus

You are always by my side

Your love is the one thing I can’t run out of

“My love I’ve never left your side.

You are not alone."


So there it is haha not going to top any charts seeing as how I used other people's lyrics, but I like their's better than my own anyways, but it was really fun, and I thought you all would get a kick out of my mistake and at the randomness of writing a "medley"

Love you all and can't wait to see you soon!!!

Caroline
