Two paths & a spirit that's crying

"There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.
...
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder*

* Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin as performed by Mary J. Blige

I love this performance.  She killed it! And though she didn't sing this verse, here it is because it's my favorite!
"There's a feeling I get when I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who stand looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder."

Seasons & reasons change

I know that truth can hurt

but I'm glad that you told me

No pun intended

Everything is fire in the simili life

I know that truth hurts
I know that truth hurts
Truth hurts

...

Somebody was telling me, somebody
I could change my own season
Somebody was telling me, somebody
I could alter my reasons*

* Wounds by Quadron

The consequences of neglecting a heart...

House for sale
I'm moving out
I'm moving on
This bird has flown
House for sale
I'll tell you where to redirect my mail
House for sale
Take a look inside
This is where love
Once did reside
But now it's gone
And that's the reason I'll be traveling on

* House for Sale by Nick Lowe

Emotion is the only thing real...

* The Dive by Fool's Gold

How does one replace perfection?!

You know how the time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised
In a summer haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over.

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead."

Nothing compares
No worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes
They are memories made.
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?*
