Musical Mondays - Stephen Speaks

I like Broadway musicals...a lot. In high school, I even entertained the idea of pursuing a career on the stage. {{Some times I still do.}}

I've decided that it might be fun do a post on Mondays revolving around music - some Broadway and some contemporary.

For today, I've decided to post the lyrics to a contemporary song. I put it on a CD that I gave R for this past Christmas. It's called "All These Things" by Stephen Speaks. I put it on the CD in hopes that he would think of me whenever he listened to it. {{Doesn't every girl have a song or songs that she wants a guy to hear and immediately think of her?}} A couple of weeks ago, he began listening to the CD all the time and told me he loved this particular song because it reminded him of me. {{He can recite it from memory.}}

p.s. Make sure you pause the site music before you play the video! :)

Maybe it's her face, no makeup at all
As she tells me she's not beautiful
Maybe it's her hair, soft golden and wind blown
As we drive through the streets of town
It could be all these things
But I think it's her smile
Maybe it's her laugh when she throws back and sighs
Or her eyebrows when I do something stupid
Maybe it's her smell, the lotion she wears
Or how my hands smell like country pear for days
You know it could be all these things
But I think mostly it is her smile
Cause I love to see her smile back at me
And I know she is happy
Maybe it's her touch, the feel of her hands
When she puts her tiny fingers in mine
Maybe it's her eyes gently searching my soul
Still nothing stirs me like when I see those lips roll
and I see her smile
Cause I love to see her smile back at me
And I know she is happy
