Melodic Mondays

Right now, the most common words I hear from my kids are "Play with me!" --usually both at the same time, while both telling me stories. While mind boggling at times, I love that they want to spend time with me--a few more years, and they'd rather be with their friends.

So the songs I've been singing this week is "Time in a Bottle" by Jim Croce...we sang it in high school choir (am I dating myself??). They're not a perfect fit, but I'd be saving up these days for later...

If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that Id like to do
Is to save every day
Till eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you

If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
Id save every day like a treasure and then,
Again, I would spend them with you

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
Ive looked around enough to know
That youre the one I want to go
Through time with

If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty
Except for the memory
Of how they were answered by you

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
Ive looked around enough to know
That youre the one I want to go
Through time with
