Fix You: Coldplay

This year Liz and I wanted to dedicate a song to all of you on our bookclub cd. We decided on Fix You by Coldplay. Not only because we went to the concert and it was the BEST EVER, but because in one way or another it describes what we have gone through this year. Marcy with her tough divorce, Laurel turning 40 and not believing just how wonderful that is, Kiki with her niece being terminally ill, Cumorah and other friends moving away, just to name a few. We wanted to do a song that let you know that whatever challenge or trial you may be facing, we are there for a shoulder to cry on. If we all work together, the thorns in life will be only for but a season. It is wonderful to get together and have those late night chats about our trials. It helps to get to know all of you so much better. Liz and I dedicate this song to you lovely ladies! Here are the words.....

Fix You - Coldplay

When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home and ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home and ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I
Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from your mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I

Lights will guide you home and ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you


So in your spare time, which is a rare time, scroll down to the music bar at the bottom of this blog and click on fix you and listen to the song when you read the lyrics. Liz and I love all of you and it is songs like this that bring us together!
