I really don't have "a way with words"... Especially typing them...
But that's certainly okay, because some people have a gift of using words to inspire, uplift, and change people, so I want to share the words that inspire/uplift/positively change me.
Norah Jones has a folksy-soul sound that always makes me feel grounded. Her voice and simple, yet impressive piano skills always leave me in a better mood than before I listened.
"The Prettiest Thing" (Norah Jones)
The prettiest thing
I ever did see
Was lightening from the top of a cloud
Moving through the dark a million miles an hour
With somewhere to be
So why does it seem
Like a picture
Hanging up on someone else's wall
Lately I haven't been myself at all
It's heavy on my mind
I'm dreaming again
Like I've always been
And way down low
I know
The prettiest thing
I ever did see
Was dusty as the handle on the door
Rusty as a nail stuck in the old pine floor
Looks like home to me
I'm dreaming again
Like I've always been
And way down low
I'm thinkin' of the prettiest thing
