Illness has invaded my body. As much as I fought with vitamin C and healthy foods, the dreaded bug got a hold of me. I sound like Harvey Fierstein and my nose varies between being a faucet and filled with concrete.
That being said, my work week has also been on the hellish side.
Feeling lousy and constantly having someone on my ass all day has made me cranky and sensitive. My quiet time spent in my head produces nothing but worries and thinking. Thinking and worries.
I posed a question because the thought had stuck with me. Somebody else’s words were on repeat mode in my head. I don’t know why. It made me wonder and played on my insecurities.
As I lay down in bed, my head heavy with sickness and my body aching from coughing all day he answered me in a song.
if not for you,
babe, i couldn't find the door,
couldn't even see the floor,
i'd be sad and blue,
if not for you.
if not for you,
babe, i'd lay awake all night,
wait for the mornin' light
to shine in through,
but it would not be new,
if not for you.
if not for you
my sky would fall,
rain would gather too.
without your love i'd be nowhere at all,
i'd be lost if not for you,
and you know it's true.
if not for you
my sky would fall,
rain would gather too.
without your love i'd be nowhere at all,
oh! what would i do
if not for you.
if not for you,
winter would have no spring,
couldn't hear the robin sing,
i just wouldn't have a clue,
anyway it wouldn't ring true,
if not for you.
