17 and counting



Yesterday Marilyn and I celebrated our 17th anniversery. Who have thunk it?
I hadn't done anything for 17 years, except maybe college...
I can't imagin having a better life. Like Mike Scott says "Woman of the hearthfire, you're the harbor of my soul" ("Bang on the ear" by the Waterboys)

One of my all time favorite songs is John Hiatt's "Have a little faith in me". It sort of sums up the last 17 or so years:

When the road gets dark
And you can no longer see
Just let my love throw a spark
And have a little faith in me

And when the tears you cry
Are all you can believe
Just give these loving arms a try
And have a little faith in me
And

Chorus:
Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me

When your secret heart
Cannot speak so easily
Come here darlin
From a whisper start
To have a little faith in me

And when your backs against the wall
Just turn around and you will see
I will catch, I will catch your fall baby
Just have a little faith in me


Well, Ive been loving you for such a long time girl
Expecting nothing in return
Just for you to have a little faith in me
You see time, time is our friend
cause for us there is no end
And all you gotta do is have a little faith in me
I said I will hold you up, I will hold you up
Your love gives me strength enough
So have a little faith in me
