A Love Song

A weird, beautiful thing happened after I had my first kid. I would sit, holding baby Liv on my chest, listening to the Paul Simon Pandora station, and all the love songs seemed about her. My new, head over heels crush. Sorry Hubs!

Even today, love songs remind me of all my loves. Recently a new-to-me song played on one of my go-to SiriusXM channels, Dave Matthews: "Belly Full." The song is beautiful, the lyrics are perfect. I was driving my girls home from picking up food for a family dinner. The weather was ideal, an early September breeze through our windows, the evening sun lowering in the sky. It was a simple, pinch me moment. Man am I grateful for the little things.

"Belly Full"
Song by Dave Matthews Band

Oh, my love
If I had my way then all your dreams
Would come true
Oh, my love
All your dreams and all the world
Just for you
Oh, my love
If I had my way
This for you
Spread yourself across my lips
And I spoon you in
The sweetest thing in all the world
Oh, I want more
There is no place I'd rather be than here with you
Under the sun, the pouring rain, all the sky for you
My love
If I had my way
This for you
Oh, my love
Make your belly full
