What a great and telling song....

Before the song, a few headlines:

Looks like it's PTO, according to word on the first school newsletter, so the information gathering has begun, as I suspect they'll be looking at Bonnie and I to "get it started" (NOW what do I have myself into??!!?? Hee hee...)

Work goes nuts for 4th straight week....looks like another late-night Thursday, 'cuz I MUST leave Friday at 5pm to get to Patrick Henry by 6pm to ensure our booth space for the football broadcast.


Now, the song:

This couple's first CD was released in the summer of '91, and I remember adding this song to our rotation at the station thinking it sounded a bit alternative for us at the time, but I'm glad we played it. It didn't bring them "widespread" success in Contemporary Christian music, but it did help lay the foundation for their later success, and I'm glad, because I sure rooted for them. I love their music.

Scott and Christine Dente is "Out of the Grey". Christine has quite possibly the most beautiful voice ever created. Honest. It can be so delicate, yet strong, haunting, yet familiar. She's awesome.

I love this song, especially its meaning....it's very dear to my heart. Maybe you have someone in your life you want to make sure you see in heaven, too, especially if they're not around you now in your earthly travels. Check this out.....

Wishes
Written by Christine Denté, Scott Denté & Charlie Peacock

We don't say much
When we're around each other
I wish you'd tell me
How you feel
We do so much
Dancing around each other
Won't you reach out
And pull me in

So many things I wish you'd say
So much I would change

But I would let these wishes go
Push them all aside
If there was one thing
I could know for sure
Tell me that when this life is over
I will see you there
On the other side of heaven's door
This means more than anything
This is my wish for you

Do you know how much
I really love you
I wish I knew
How to show you more
I do so much
Thinking about you
But keep to myself
What am I waiting for

So many things that I should say
So much I would change

But I would let these wishes go
Push them all aside
If there was one thing
I could know for sure
Tell me that when this life is over
I will see you there
On the other side of heaven's door
This means so much more to me
This is the most important thing
This is my wish for you


Good night! Will this life ever slow down? Maybe I don't want it to.....:)
