Two years ago, I won a radio contest (for real) that gave me tickets to see Jason Mraz in concert and conduct an interview for the radio station. I was excited to win the tickets, but me interviewing Jason Mraz for a radio station? Maybe not.
Instead, I let Bruce (16) and Veronica (14) do the interview and I stood off to the side snapping pictures. He was so nice to the kids and was funny and unhurried. It didn't feel like he was there to meet a radio station obligation. It was a lot of fun.
I love good lyrics. I appreciate a song with a positive message and I like it when words are put together in a clever and profound way. This song has it all. So to celebrate Friday (or whatever day you happen to be looking at my blog), here's an entertaining version of a great song, with some of my favorite lyrics. Enjoy!
It takes a crane to build a crane
It takes two floors to make a story
It takes an egg to make a hen
It takes a hen to make an egg
There is no end to what I'm saying
It takes a thought to make a word
And it takes some words to make an action
And it takes some work to make it work
It takes some good to make it hurt
It takes some bad for satisfaction
Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la life goes full circle
Ah la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la
It takes a night to make it dawn
And it takes a day to make you yawn brother
And it takes some old to make you young
It takes some cold to know the sun
It takes the one to have the other
And it takes no time to fall in love
But it takes you years to know what love is
And it takes some fears to make you trust
It takes those tears to make it rust
It takes the dust to have it polished
(Chorus)
It takes some silence to make sound
And it takes a lost before you found it
And it takes a road to go nowhere
It takes a toll to show you care
It takes a hole to see a mountain
(Chorus)
