I'm in

Just bought my ticket to see Jack in concert in a few weeks at Sandstone in KC with some other Lambda Chi wives. Girls Trip! I picked up the new CD yesterday, and although his last album, Sleep Through the Static, might be my favorite (I really do love all of them), I'm liking the new stuff, especially the track "Anything But the Truth." Lots of questions...some my son would ask me...some I ask myself:

If they tell me that the bees
don't make honey anymore
then what am I supposed to tell you?
And if they tell me that the ocean
is tired of her shores
then tell me
what am I supposed to tell you?

When I can't tell you anything

but the truth

When I can't tell you anything

but the truth

What happens to an eagle's nest

in a storm?
How does the mama
keep the baby warm?
What if the wind
is telling us that it's time
and what if we're not ready to fly?

I can't tell you anything

but the truth

I can't tell you antying

but the truth...

What is this place?

Who am I?
Why did we come here?

What is the this place?

Who am I?
Why did we come here?

I don't know, I don't know

But I don't know
that we're meant to know.

I don't know, I don't know

But I don't know
that we're meant to know.
