This view from above
reminds me of a favorite song
by the Dixie Chicks called
“Top of the World,”
a song about the tragedy
of living life
without letting love in.
A few of the lyrics are below
I wished I’d a known you
Wished I’d a shown you
All of the things I was on the inside
I’d pretend to be sleeping
When you come in in the morning
To whisper good-bye
Go to work in the rain
I don’t know why
Don’t know why
‘Cause everyone’s singing
We just wanna be heard
Disappearing everyday
without so much as a word
somehow
Wanna grab a hold of that
little song bird
Take her for a ride
to the top of the world
right now
Whoa, Whoa
To the top of the world
