Music Week, Day 1


Welcome to music week.
I realize what an impact music has on my life,
and I've decided to share some of my favorite songs with you.
Just the lyrics.
They're good lyrics.
For Day 1, the selection is

Joy Ride, by Jessica Harper

I'm awake but I could be dreaming:

I hear the singing of early birds.

Here come my baby's sweet, small footsteps

And "I love you" are the day's first words.

This is as good as it gets

And this is just the beginning.I've got love in my pockets, I've got love in my shoes.

The things worth keeping are the things you can't lose.
I can't lose with my baby by my side.

This is a joy ride.

Now he's up and we are up and running,
Runnin' around, runnin' around, doing what we do
My baby's puttin' a foot in the day--everyday
We're discovering something new.
This is as good as it gets
And this is just the beginning

(chorus)

And when I stop for a minute,

Look at life and see what's in it,

The thing that gives it all that shine,

Is his little hand in mine.

This is as good as it gets

And this is just the beginning.

I can't lose with my baby by my side.

This is a joy ride.
