It's been a Julia Fordham week

lyrics are abridged, with apologies to the brilliant ms. fordham.

from MISSING MAN
by julia fordham

people tell me i am strong
i might have to prove them wrong
as the cracks begin to show
i'm trying to find the strength
to let you go
missing man

do you miss me
missing man

from IT'S ANOTHER YOU DAY
by julia fordham

it's another you day
it's another you day
there you are
at the bus stop, by the dar

you're the music on my radio
and i can't turn you down
you're the driver on the ghost town
that's pulling me around
you are the traffic
you are everywhere

you're the star in every picture
and i'm so unrehearsed
i see you in the mirror
and i see myself reversed
you are a vision
you are everywhere

it's another you day
it's another you day
there you are
in my bedroom in the dark

i still think about you
all the time
you're always on my mind
that's okay
it's just another you day

from ALLELUIA
by julia fordham (feat. joe henry)

alleluia
i made it through
the day without you
just a day
another day
but i'm on my way

for a hushed sweet moment
everything made sense
and all my misplaced judgments
were awash with innocence

by the shore
near the harbor
a distant light
shines on the water
just a light
oh distant light
guide me through the night

an alleluia chorus
rang out across the waves
i have not gone the distance
but i am on my way

---

as a certain species of boy would say: "ang lupit, pare."
