As a tribute to Mason Jennings I'm posting this song on my blog.
The simplicity of this song has a childlike beauty which haunts me every time.
Little airplane in the sky
You point up at it
I watch your face as you watch it go by
Everything is perfect
Where would I be right now
If all my dreams had come true
Deep down I know somehow
I'd have never seen your face
This world would be a different place
Darling, there's no way to know
Which way your heart will go
Summer sun on a sandy slide
Silver swingsets shining
How can life feel so alive
And still feel like dying
Where would I be right now
If all my dreams had come true
Deep down I know somehow
I'd have never seen your face
This world would be a different place
Darling, there's no way to know
Which way your heart will go
A stack of books beside our bed
Living out of boxes
Why does the empty space fill with dread
Why does change still shock us
Where would we be right now
If all our dreams had come true
Deep down I know somehow
I'd have never seen your face
This world would be a different place
Darling, there's no way to know
Which way your heart will go
~Mason Jennings (Which Way Your Heart Will Go)
