Stop this train

Forgive me for being sentimental...being around people you absolutely love and know they love you back...for a moment you own the world then when you realize it is only for a moment, this song by John Mayer says it all: Funny, I never really listened to the words until I was home sick with the flu yesterday. I changed only four words in the song, but it truly reflects what is me....


No I'm not colorblind
I know the world is black and white
I try to keep an open mind
But I just can't sleep on this tonight

Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?

Don't know how else to say it
I don't want to see my parents go
One generation's length away
From fighting life out on my own

Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?

So scared of getting older
I'm only good at being young
So I play the numbers game
To find a way to say that life has just begun
Had a talk with my Pop
Said "help me understand"
He said "turn eighty-six
You'll renegotiate

Don't stop this train
Don't for a minute change the place you're in
And don't think I couldn't ever understand
I tried my hand
Jeanine, honestly we'll never stop this train "

Once in a while, when it's good
It'll feel like it should
And they're all still around
And you're still safe and sound
And you don't miss a thing
Till you cry when you're driving away in the dark
Singing
Stop this train
I want to get off
And go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
Cause now I see I'll never stop this train


So the conclusion, Enjoy the ride! This is for my family, love you all! Thank you for all the fun we have and the memories we make (see what happens when I am sick?!)
