What's in a name?




How did I come up with the name for my blog?



First of all, one of my favorite shows "Grey's Anatomy" introduced me to the song "Somewhere Only We Know" by Keane. LOVED the song!



Also to me my blog is a place where I can come and write my thoughts, feelings, happenings...and it's a place that I know, and a place that you know (obviously if you are reading this). I know blogs are public, but for some reason I feel like it is a safe place for me to vent. A place to go when I want to get away from it all. Like the picture at the top of my blog, a peaceful trail to walk on.



Doesn't seem to make sense? To me it does. But I have been known to be a little "off". LOL



I posted the lyrics. I think they are profound in a "lisa" kind of way.





Somewhere Only We Know


I walked across an empty land

I knew the pathway like the back of my hand

I felt the earth beneath my feet

Sat by the river and it made me complete

Oh simple thing where have you gone

I'm getting old and I need something to rely on

So tell me when you're gonna let me in

I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

I came across a fallen tree

I felt the branches of it looking at me

Is this the place we used to love?

Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?

Oh simple thing where have you gone

I'm getting old and I need something to rely on

So tell me when you're gonna let me in

I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

And if you have a minute why don't we go

Talk about it somewhere only we know?

This could be the end of everything

So why don't we goSomewhere only we know?

Oh simple thing where have you gone

I'm getting old and I need something to rely on

So tell me when you're gonna let me in

I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin

So if you have a minute why don't we go

Talk about it somewhere only we know?

This could be the end of everything

So why don't we go

So why don't we go

This could be the end of everything

So why don't we go

Somewhere only we know?

Very cool, Lisa. And I do know what you mean. Public, but private too. Our thoughts, how we mean them to be:)
