i’ll be fine… just give me time

My friend Scott introduced me to the music of Damien Rice.

After seeing him live and getting “O” and “B sides” I must say I am in love. IN LOVE.

AMAZING.

and sad.

and hopeful.

and beautiful.

and perfect.

I have had a rough week, and Damiens music has been passionate and soothing. I love volcano and delicate and blowers daughter and cold water (although the end is odd) and I remember is breathtaking and my new favorite.

But the song I have been playing over and over at the moment is Older Chests…

It it mellow and soft and fits my mood.

And since so often other people say what I feel better than I ever could…

“Older Chests”
She broke down the other day, yeah you know
Some things in life may change
But some things they stay the same

Like time, there’s always time
On my mind
So pass me by, I’ll be fine
Just give me time
Time, there’s always time
On my mind
Pass me by, I’ll be fine
Just give me time

I love O. I listened to it with all the feelings of falling in love and the strectching that you feel on the inside when yoy think that the love is quit possibly not your forever man. I love the vulnerablity in his voice.
