The Song of the Codependent

I was on my way to work this morning listening to a CD that a dear friend gave me for Christmas. This song came on.......and it hit me. This is the theme song for the co-dependent. It is a really beautiful song. Sad in a way and enlightening in another. Here are the lyrics:

Straight to You by Josh Groban

All the towers of Ivory are crumbling
And the swallows have sharpened their beaks
This is the time of our great undoing
This is the time that I値l come running

Straight to you
For I am captured
One more time

The light in our window is fading
The candle gutters on the ledge
Well now sorrow, it comes a-stealing
And I値l cry, but I値l come a running

Straight to you
For I am captured
Straight to you
For I am captured
Once again

Gone are the days of rainbows
Gone are the nights of swinging from the stars
For the sea will swallow up the mountains
And the sky will throw thunder-bolts and sparks

Straight to you
But I値l come a running
Straight to you
But I値l come a running
One more time

Heaven has denied us its kingdom
The saints are drunk howling at the moon
The chariots of angels are colliding
Well, I値l run, babe, but I値l come running

Straight to you
For I am captured
Straight to you
For I am captured
One more time

**************************************

Just thought I'd share

gentle hugs
