My Sunday song of the day is "Dancing Nancies" by Dave Matthews Band. Download it or watch the YouTube vid and think about the lyrics. It's funny how life just plays out at its own pace... I just love the mysterious qualities of Dave's lyrics and how he interprets things in such a poetic way.
Don't you ever wonder
Maybe if things had been slightly different
You could be somebody else?
Don't you wonder
Maybe if you took a left turn
Instead of taking a right
You could be somebody different?
Don't you ever wonder?
Could I have been
A parking lot attendant?
Could I have been
A millionaire in Bel Air?
Could I have been
Your little brother?
Could I have been
Anyone other than me?
He stands, touch his hair, his shoes untied
Tongue gaping stare
Could I have been a magnet for money?
Could I have been anyone other than me?
Twenty-three and so tired of life
Such a shame to throw it all away
The images grow darker still
Could I have been anyone other than me?
Then I look up at the sky
My mouth is open wide, lick and taste
What's the use in worrying? What's the use in hurrying?
Turn, turn we almost become dizzy
I am who I am, who I am well, who am I?
Requesting some enlightenment
Could I have been anyone other than me?
And then I'll Sing and dance, I'll play for you tonight
And thrill at it all
Dark clouds may hang on me sometimes, but I'll work it out
Then I Look up at the sky
My mouth is open wide, lick and taste
What's the use in worrying? What's the use in hurrying?
Turn, turn we almost become dizzy
Falling out of a world of lies
Could I have been dancing Nancy?
Could I have been anyone other than me?
