'Cause i been caught in between all I wish for and all I need

Artist- R.E.M. & Coldplay
Song of the Day- In the sun

I got to thinking about REM the other night after hearing a kickass cover of one of their songs and was trying to remember this Joseph Arthur cover they did with Coldplay back in the day. And just now as I re listened to it, it seemed to fit exactly how I've been feeling. I've seen a lot of people struggling of late with little or big things and in the midst of feeling the struggle myself and feeling of transition and caught in between, when I run out of answers, when I don't know how to help someone or help myself, there's something comforting and helpful in the chorus of this song. When you don't know what to do when you've lost hope it's nice to know it's not actually disappeared but it's out there for the finding. It might not be your own way it might not make sense but in your heart, in the heart of everyone there's a love to get us through.



I picture you in the sun wondering what went wrong
And falling down on your knees asking for sympathy
And being caught in between all you wish for and all you seen
And trying to find anything you can feel that you can believe in

May God's love be with you
Always
May God's love be with you

I know i would apologize if i could see your eyes
'Cause when you showed me myself i became someone else
But i was caught in between all you wish for and all you need
I picture you fast asleep
A nightmare comes
You can't keep awake

May God's love be with you
Always
May God's love be with you

'Cause if i find
If i find my own way
How much will i find
If i find
If i find my own way
How much will i find
You

I don't know anymore
What it's for
I'm not even sure
If there is anyone who is in the sun
Will you help me to understand
'Cause i been caught in between all I wish for and all I need
Maybe you're not even sure what it's for
Any more than me

May God's love be with you
Always
May God's love be with you
