Still Amazed – For Heather
This is an artists worst nightmare. One take. Then show the world. But you know what? She is worth more than my pitch. She is worth more than my out of tune guitar. She is worth more than my ghetto single take. She is worth more than I can ever pull together. She is definitely worth more than any adjectives I could muster into one song.
So Heather. I place myself out there in front of the world, or at least 1000 or so people, to tell of how you amaze me.
I wrote and recorded this for you after practice tonight.
Still amazed.

Verse One
This melody sings of days gone by
3 am came and morning soon behind
Praying selfishly the night would never end
It’s then, I spoke of you
Chorus
I’m amazed at the wonder of who you are
I’m amazed at the passion that breathes
Sure as time goes by all will know
I’m amazed at You and Me
Verse Two
As fall turned to winter over and over again
Melodies they changed from lovers into friends
In the morning, through the day
I’d try to remember, what I would say
Verse Three
Life kept moving, days went by
And then soon I realized, YOU’RE WHY I’M ALIVE
You’re my melody
Hear it Rise
Chorus 2
Still amazed at the wonder of who you are
Still amazed at the passion that breathes
Sure as time goes by all will know
I’m still amazed at You and Me
I still believe in You and Me
I’m amazed at You and Me
Thanks for letting me share my amazement.

RAIN IT DOWN

Mmkay. It’s not even eight o’clock in the morning. And this just made me all weepy and snotty.
This is the kind of love that people dream of when they’re middle school girls… high school girls…. college girls… wives. Your wife is blessed. You are blessed.
Stupid weepiness before 8am. Hmph.
That’s beautiful, Los. Just beautiful. Happy Valentine’s Day to you and Heather.
sweeeeet! good for you…using those talents to bless your wife, and then being an example to all of us…thanks Carlos and Heather for being so passionate about your lives….

You totally rock. These gifts are the very best – the ones from the heart. I believe this may help forgive the fact that you travel with no clean undies!!! You and Heather just belong together. We are blessed to share your lives!
