Sometimes it just takes a song to really convey how you feel...



Fistful Of Tears by Maxwell

Feel just like a weight has lifted
How can I repay you help me understand
Currency a fistful of tears I can afford
Fight of your life is not the cost
Time will reveal
All along you’re the one who’s losing

Cause I go insane
Crazy sometimes
Tryin you to keep you from losing your mind
Open your eyes
See what’s in front of your face
Save me my fistful of tears

You can make it disappear girl(boy)
All you got to do is just raise up, face up, stay up
All things will heal we’ll feel it with a kiss from the
skies
Don’t’ you let it go
Don’t’ you let it go

Cause I go insane
Crazy sometimes
Tryin you to keep you from losing your mind
Open your eyes
See what’s in front of your face
And save me my fistful of tears

We gon fight the war
We gon fight our fears
The only thing I wanna throw is a fistful of tears
We gon fight the war
We gon fight our fears
The only thing I gotta throw is a fistful of tears
We gon fight the war
We gon fight our fears
The only thing I wanna throw is a fistful of tears

Cause I go insane
Crazy sometimes
Tryin you to keep you from losing your mind
Open your eyes
See what’s in front of your face
And save me my fistful of tears

Cause I go insane
Crazy sometimes
Tryin you to keep you from losing your mind
Open your eyes
See what’s in front of your face
And save me my fistful of tears

@Solomon - have you ever tried helping someone, trying to steer them, convince them of whats right, only to watch them take another path...when what they need was right in front of them all the time...yeah, i know you feel me.

I haven't heard this Maxwell song before, but I feel the lyrics. Maxwell sings the most beautiful lyrics.

umm, What inspired you to post this - may I ask?

@Don, at first it was my son, in fact i wrote the post about a week ago and i dedicated it to him, but then i realized there were others who needed to hear this and feel it. Like i said above, we often have people in our lives who are trying to get us to see the brighter side of things and yet we fight them at every cost...but the real cost is losing and when you have everything in front of you...why lose?

Miz, isn't this song so appropriate for a parent. The song says "WE" are going the fight the war... "WE" are going to fight "our" fears. Yet "I" go insane.

As you probably know, Miz, a song like this can cause tears. I know you know.

I don't know who wrote that song but it has a Prince vibe.

Miz, as you also must know, a person has no business playing this CD if they are missing someone, or missing love. Yep, this CD had me for a few days - nonstop.

@TonyOh -Hey, i sent you an email last week. I'll hit u up! lol.

@Carey/Carey - yeah i know, it has definitely caused me some tears. I love this cd!
