but i don't know how

this song started so many things for me, and the last line practically kills me every time i listen to it... i cannot describe the affect her voice has on me. if there is one person's voice i wish i could introduce to everyone i meet -- it is this one. those who know me say that i obsess about her voice and work, but that is my right. let's just say, i know what i like.

my boys love to listen to this song and are moved by the lyrics and singing. they have great taste too. this song says so much to me -- what does it say to you?

if i could -- phish


take me to another place, she said
take me to another time
run with me across the oceans
float me on a silver cloud

if i could i would, but i don't know how
if i could i would, but i don't know how
if i could i would and i'd take you now

stay with me till time turns over
i want to feel my feet leave the ground
take me where the whispering breezes
can lift me up and spin me around

if i could i would...
hear you laughing as we go
flipping backward through the doors and through the windows...
i'm melting into nothing

if i could i would, but i don't know how
if i could i would, but i don't know how
if i could i would and i'd take you now

if i could i would, but i don't know how
if i could i would, but i don't know how
if i could i would, but i don't know how

but i knew exactly where i was...

how could i forget that i am home - with the boys! i really needed to change my attitude toward this forced sequestration that is our #stay...
