"sometimes you have to take the leap, and build your wings on the way down."

(kobi yamada)


jo, så är det nog...
så har det i alla fall fungerat i *mitt* liv hittills - jag har hoppat, och *efter* att jag har hoppat så har jag insett att jag faktiskt inte har en aaaning om vad jag gett mig in på, men då har det ju "bara" varit att "gilla läget", lixom...

en av mina favoritsångerskor är den i sverige rätt okända countrysångerskan kathy mattea

en av de kathy mattea-låtar jag tycker mest om är


the cape

eight years old with a floursack cape
tied all around his neck
he climbed up on the garage
he's figurin' what the heck
well, he screwed up his courage up so tight
that the whole thing come unwound
he got a runnin' start and bless his heart
he's headed for the ground

well (yes) he's one of those who knows that life
is just a leap of faith
spread your arms and hold your breath
and always trust your cape

now he's all grown up with a floursack cape
tied all around his dreams
and he's full of spit and vinegar
and he's bustin' at the seams
well, he licked his finger and he checked the wind
it's gonna be do or die
he wasn't scared of nothin' boys
he was pretty sure he could fly

well (yes) he's one of those who knows that life
is just a leap of faith
spread your arms and hold your breath
and always trust your cape

now he's old and gray with a floursack cape
tied all around his head
he's still jumpin' off the garage
and will be till he's dead
all these years the people said
he was actin' like a kid
he did not know he could not fly
so he did

well (yes) he's one of those who knows that life
is just a leap of faith
spread your arms and hold your breath
and always trust your cape

well (yes) he's one of those who knows that life
is just a leap of faith
spread your arms and hold your breath
and always trust your cape
