my new favorite {song}

it drives Dave crazy… whenever I say, “this is my new favorite song!”… or my “new favorite dish”… or my “new favorite restaurant”… He says I say it too frequently, and it seems everything is my new favorite… well, a girl can have multiple favorites can’t she? But I guess I see what he’s saying… but it won’t change (me saying it or) my new favorite song!! Which also drives my husband crazy, because my new favorite songs… are played over… and over… and over… and over again… and then over… again and again… I can’t help it! This is how I am…

So, today… actually, two years ago today marks the date that Dave asked me to be his wife… and…yes, I said YES! With our engagement anniversary… along with Valentine’s day… I couldn’t help but to be all lovey dovey and oozing with happy… and this song, which I stumbled across listening to Pandora (The Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs station), has quickly become my new favorite… it’s simply a happy song… a love song… a song of hope… but definitely a song of all things love… which I think is fitting for this weekend of love… I added the lyrics below… let me know if it puts a smile on your face!

Song: Home
By: Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros

[Her:]
Alabama, Arkansas,
I do love my ma and pa,
Not the way that I do love you.

[Him:]
Holy, Moley, me, oh my,
You’re the apple of my eye,
Girl I’ve never loved one like you.

[Her:]
Man oh man you’re my best friend,
I scream it to the nothingness,
There ain’t nothing that I need.

[Him:]
Well, hot and heavy, pumpkin pie,
Chocolate candy, Jesus Christ,
Ain’t nothing please me more than you.

[Both:]
Ahh Home. Let me come home
Home is wherever I’m with you.
Ahh Home. Let me go ho-oh-ome.
Home is wherever I’m with you.

La, la, la, la, take me home.
Mother, I’m coming home.

[Him:]
I’ll follow you into the park,
Through the jungle through the dark,
Girl I never loved one like you.

[Her:]
Moats and boats and waterfalls,
Alley-ways and pay phone calls,
I’ve been everywhere with you.

[Him:]
We laugh until we think well die,
Barefoot on a summer night
Nothin new is sweeter than with you

[Her:]
And in the streets you run afree,
Like it’s only you and me,
Geeze, you’re something to see.

[Both:]
Ahh Home. Let me go home.
Home is wherever I’m with you.
Ahh Home. Let me go ho-oh-ome.
Home is wherever I’m with you.

La, la, la, la, take me home.
Daddy, I’m coming home.

(Talking)
Him: Jade
Her: Alexander
Him: Do you remember that day you fell outta my window?
Her: I sure do, you came jumping out after me.
Him: Well, you fell on the concrete, nearly broke your ass, you were bleeding all over the place and
I rushed you out to the hospital, you remember that?
Her: Yes I do.
Him: Well there’s something I never told you about that night.
Her: What didn’t you tell me?
Him: While you were sitting in the backseat smoking a cigarette you thought was gonna be your last,
I was falling deep, deeply in love with you, and I never told you til just now.

[Both:]
Ahh Home. Let me go home.
Home is wherever I’m with you.
Ahh Home. Let me go ho-oh-ome.
Home is where I’m alone with you.

[Him:]
Home. Let me come home.
Home is wherever I’m with you.

[Her:]
Ahh home. Yes I am ho-oh-ome.
Home is when I’m alone with you.

[Her:]
Alabama, Arkansas,
I do love my ma and pa…
Moats and boats and waterfalls,
Alley-ways and pay phone calls…

[Both:]
Ahh Home. Let me go home.
Home is wherever I’m with you.
Ahh Home. Let me go ho-oh-ome.
Home is where I’m alone with you…
