Keepin It Light-- Songs for the journey #2

This song was on an AT&T commercial... the perfect place to find an "adoption journey song," right? It just grabbed me... made me smile... made me think of our little girl... it is just happy! And in the commercial, it showed a little flower that started to bloom....then the vines and flowers began to take over everywhere... the landscape was changing. Granted it was an orange flower and was meant to show AT&T in a fresh new way, taking over all of telephone needs :) BUT, in my mind, I saw our little girl and parallel to her life... I kind of picture her in a gray world ... then we get to go and get her... she suddenly steps into a world of color, possibilities, light and joy. So, not the deepest and most meaningful of songs but it puts a smile on my face as I think of everything changing for one little orphan across the sea....

Today was the day
That I put everything in perspective
I fell asleep, when I woke up
Everything changed
And the sky was turned on
But that was before
But that was before

You came along and you turned me on
With a little bit of love
And little bit of yeah yeah

Today is the day
That I threw out everything that I wanted
I was scared, but that's alright
Who needs a ride that's taking too long?
That was before
That was before

You came along and you played me a song
With a little bit of love
And little bit of yeah yeah

Lalalalalalalalala

You came along and you played me a song
With a little bit of love
And little bit of yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
