A Jar Full of Rocks

Just thought i'd post this song...tried to find it for the blog so you could hear it but no such luck. the lyrics wiil have to do. thought of it today during class since we were talking about getting back to focusing on whats important in life. i think my rocks would be loving others and loving god...there are probably a few more. i really hope i don't turn into one of those people that gets too caught up in living to enjoy life. scary to think about.
p.s. i know the song's about newlyweds. hopefully you get the picture.

All I Need by Sara Groves
Newly married, new apartment
All our furniture was saved from the dump
Yes dear maybe we can afford a trashcan next month
All I need is a seat for two and my love for you (love love love)

New baby new life
We will teach him to speak French (poly du france)
We've got no money so we'll make it all ourselves
I'll make the curtains and you make the shelves
All I need is a power saw and a new sewing machine (love love love and a sewing machine)

Honey, this house needs a little something
That bare mantle doesn't look so good (it really doesn't)
Someone told me of a man
Who makes animals from driftwood (he makes animals, little wooden animals)
All I need is your monthly bonus for a wooden walrus

Honey, the Colbaughs are coming over
This house needs some renovations
Just a wall or two, just a little room
And a few new decorations

All I need is a sectional and a satellite TV
dark-wood cabinets that were custom built for me
a painting by that guy that paints with his feet...
Thats all i need...
