This is the part of the story where things get difficult.  Misunderstanding, frustration, cold feet.  Many relationships end here.   But that would make for a pretty short CD, wouldn’t it?  This song was originally performed by the Loon-a-tix, and began with the intro lifted out of the Beatles song.


I lie awake most every night

And ask the ceiling for advice

"Everyone seems out of reach

My heart is turning into ice"

The ceiling echos in the dark

"Humans- they are all the same

confused in their lonliness

and drowning in self-inflicted pain"


I never meant to hurt

I never meant to lead astray

I never thought you'd fall in love

So why don't I just go away


The bedroom window interjects

"The same thing happens every year

They don't know their heart's desire

discarding faith for fear

She asked me what I really want

I said "for once, to do it right."

She said "you'd better get some sleep

It won't help to stay up all night."


The bedside lamp began to glow

"I've known but you forgot to ask

In fact the process has begun

And Jesus will be healing as you go about the task."
