I’ll Walk You Home
September 4th, 2008Law And Order fans, rejoice! Benjamin Bratt is back in a big way in his new show The Cleaner. Based on the true story of William Banks, a recovering addict who after a deal with God spends his life helping other addicts break their addiction and change their lives, Bratt is brilliant in a way you wouldn’t expect on A&E. Each episode tells a story of how Banks and his group of misfit recovering addicts work to save the lives of those who are teetering on the the edge while Banks struggles to keep his family together. Great acting and strong story lines have made this a must-see for me each Tuesday night. Plus, the music is amazing!
This week’s episode featured a song by the acoustic duo Karmina. Unknown to me until a little help from Google, this song has been the backdrop to my week. Originally, I considered attaching this song to tomorrow’s post, but each deserve a moment of their own. So for today’s musical offering I present “Walk You Home” by Karmina with its powerful lyrics, and truly hope each of you have someone who would sing this song to you no matter what struggle you’re facing.
Slow down, what’s on your mind
It’s alright, I’m on your side
I hate to see your injury, I wish that you could transfer all
your pain to me
Stay here, it’s ok to cry
Let me, help you make it right
Let’s turn up our radio, let the bands remind you that you’re not
alone
We all get lowEven the brave may depend on someone
The moon only shines with the help of the sun
It’s not as safe when you’re walking alone
I’ll walk you homeSuns out, but it feels like rain
So I will illuminate your day
I’m afraid I’m losing it, what’s it gonna take for me to get
through this
We’ll get through thisEven the brave may depend on someone
The moon only shines with the help of the sun
It’s not as safe when you’re walking alone
I’ll walk you homeNeed the band to play the song
Someone’s had to keep you strong
It’s harder when your on your own
Success is not the same alone
Can’t have up without a down
Need the straight to have the round
I’ll provide the harmony
Your song is best accompanied
Music is my life. Everything can be expressed, handled or just felt more deeply with the right chord or phrase. I have been blessed with some amazing friends and am still at that point where my life is an open book. If you’d like, stick around for a bit and help me write a few chapters…
