Tonight I want to Cry - Keith Urban
The lyrics of Keith's song expresses something of how I feel tonight, it is by no means exactly how I feel, but I heard it in my itunes tonight and played it a couple of times more and thought yeah, that really is how I feel tonight. I am fine, just a little melancholy. It is the kind of feeling that encourages me to relax, have a moment to stop and take note of the way things have been. I think tonight, as I work hard on some photographic projects ahead of a very busy day tomorrow, feeling a little drained and overworked, of friends and family. Some here, some gone and I am grateful for each of them. Life can be so hectic at times, I have not stopped for a breather of late and whilst I am not crying, OR drunk, the song seems to encapsulate something of what I feel applies tonight, and rather than dismiss or ignore the emotion I embrace it for tonight.
Here is a picture of Keith I took when he was performing in Martin Place for Channel 7.
Alone in this house again tonight
I got the TV on, the sound turned down and a bottle of wine
There's pictures of you and I on the walls around me
The way that it was and coulda been surrounds me
I'll never get over you walkin' away
I [have] never been the kind to ever let my feelings show
I thought that bein' strong meant never losin' your self-control
But I'm just drunk enough to let go of my pain
To hell with my pride, let it fall like rain
From my eyes
Tonight I wanna cry
Would it help if I turned a sad song on
All by myself, [it] would sure hit me hard now that you're gone
Or maybe unfold some old yellow lost love letters
It's gonna hurt bad before it gets better
But I'll never get over you by hidin' this way
I [have] never been the kind to ever let my feelings show
I thought that bein' strong meant never losin' your self-control
But I'm just drunk enough to let got of my pain
To hell with my pride, let it fall like rain
From my eyes
Tonight I wanna cry
I've never been the kind to ever let my feelings show
I thought that bein' strong meant never losin' your self-control
But I'm just drunk enough to let got of my pain
To hell with this pride, let it fall like rain
From my eyes
Tonight I wanna cry

Stay happy Craig...but another song also says...everybody hurts...sometime. So it's also ok to have a good cry.
Hope you get some good sleep and meet your deadlines...the cloud may lift then.

T2V welcome back
no need for the cloud to have lifted, I just embraced the moment when it was here. Thanks for your comments.
