"Nearer" redux

Revisiting last night's post about Ruth Ellen with another song, this one from Spirit of the West, a band which should be interesting to those of you who are Great Big Sea/Paperboys/Tragically Hip fans (Geoffrey from SotW also plays with the Paperboys).

The angel watching over me
was needed someplace else
Kicked out the feet from under me
and watched me fall to earth
i learned a thing or two, you know it
It's true.

Goodbye, Grace
There are no other words i'd rather say
Than goodbye, Grace
Never want to see your face again

Three long months of "going steady"
No promises were ever made
Everyday hands scrubbed and ready
to rock the cradle with you, Grace
I am indebted to you, you know it
it's true.

Had a nice visit today with staxxy. We manage to take entirely too little time to keep up, but hopefully will manage to resolve that soon. It was good to catch up on goings-on, general personal life, fairie talk, and the like.

My throat's really pretty raw. It's left me with the low, rumbly voice which i wish would stay around eternally, but will pass when the sore throat does. It was finally time to break out the winter coat, which i've had for years, and is one of my favourite bits of clothing- it's a cashmere and wool blend in a medium cadet grey. Ended up feeling pretty dressy today, even just in black turtleneck and slacks.

Anyway, i'm babbling now. I think it's time to take a quiet evening and read, maybe fit in a little music practice. My fingers could certainly use the exercise.
