Wake me Up

Sometimes a song just sings the words in my heart better than I can say them. God is still good and I am utterly blessed, but sometimes there are still rainy days...or rainy seasons. Norah Jones' just got these words right. I'm not up for an all out confession tonight, so suffice it to say God allows struggles and we get battle worn and bloody...but our reality is His grace, regardless of the war raging in our hearts and minds.

Wake me up when the skies are clearing,
When the water is still,
'cause I will not watch the ships sail away so,
Please say you will.

If it were any other day,
This wouldn't get the best of me.

But today I'm not so strong,
So lay me down with a sad song,
And when it stops then you know I've been,
Gone too long.

But don't shake me awake,
Don't bend me or I will break,
Come find me somewhere between my dreams,
With the sun on my face.

I will still feel it later on,
But for now I'd rather be asleep.

-"Wake me Up" by Norah Jones
