Journey

Since Friday the universe has been shouting at me, telling me things I should have known but had somehow lost, forgotten or maybe I had just never taken the time to pay attention before. So it left me with no option but to listen this time and pay attention. I even feel like for the first time in a long time I'm making progress and I'm going forward :o

She had something more to say yesterday though and she chose a really strange way to do it. Anyone who knows me, knows two things about me first being my television set is pretty much a paper weight and second being I can't live without music. Now being a child of the 70's and 80's I grew up with bands like Santana, Pink Floyd, Bob Dylan, The Doors, Janis Joplin, Kiss, CCR, Black Sabbath, Journey and a myriad of other awsome artists and I like many missed some of these artists when the inevitable happened and a band split.

Yesterday afternoon for some reason I switched on my tv and there the universe was reminding me through the words of Oprah and Journey not to stop believing. Funny..............

Dont' stop Believing
Journey

Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train
Goin' anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train
Goin' anywhere

A singer in a smokey room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on

Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching
In the night
Streetlights, people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin', somewhere in the night

Workin' hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some will win
Some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on

Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching
In the night
Streetlights, people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin', somewhere in the night

[Instrumental Interlude]

Don't stop believin'
Hold on to the feelin'
Streetlights, people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on
Streetlights, people
