Kitten Yarn ^ . . ^ ~: The Songs in My Head--Get Back Up

Yay!! It is nearly spring!! I saw my first little yellow crocus yesterday in my yard. My outside kitty TigerGirl came up and wanted lots of snuggles and love. She and Snowball, my 2 outside cats, are strong and have thick winter fur. They have been hard to find this winter. They must have good hiding places, because no matter how many times I've called and gone outside and looked for them, they'd only come home when I was least expecting them. I did get them inside for some of the coldest weather, but there were lots of times I'd pick one of them up and bring them in, only for them to run right back outside. Cats do have a mind of their own. You can't say I haven't tried to get them in the house this winter.

The song running through my head first thing this morning....
"We lose our way, we get back up again....you may be knocked down but not out forever...love calling, love calling.....you may be knocked down but not out forever"

just snippets of a song. Until I looked it up, I had totally forgotten it was a song off a cd that my kids have, and they ask to listen to it all the time.
Here are the complete lyrics for Get Back Up:

You turned away when I looked you in the eye,
And hesitated when I asked if you were alright,
Seems like you're fighting for you life,
But why? oh why?
Wide awake in the middle of your nightmare,
You saw it comin' but it hit you outta no where,
And theres always scars
When you fall back far

We lose our way,
We get back up again
It's never too late to get back up again,
One day you will shine again,
You may be knocked down,
But not out forever,
Lose our way,
We get back up again,
So get up, get up,
You gonna shine again,
Never too late to get back up again,
You may be knocked down,
But not out forever
[May be knocked down but not out forever]

You're rolled out at the dawning of the day
Heart racin' as you made you little get away,
It feels like you've been runnin' all your life
But, why? Oh why?

So you've pulled away from the love that wou'd've been there,
You start believin' that your situation's unfair

But there's always scars,
When you fall back far

We lose our way,
We get back up again
Never too late to get back up again,
One day, you gonna shine again,
You may be knocked down but not out forever,
Lose our way, we get back up again,
So get up, get up
You gonna shine again
It's never too late, to get back up again
You may be knocked down, but not out forever,
May be knocked down, but not out forever!

This is love callin', love callin', out to the broken,
This is love callin'.
This is love callin', love callin', out to the broken
This is love callin'.
This is love callin', love callin',
I am so broken
This is love callin' love callin

Lose our way, [way way way ay ay ay]
We get back up, [get back up again]
It's never too late [late late late ate ate ate]
You may be knocked down but not out forever!

Lose our way,
We get back up again,
So get up get up
You gonna shine again
Never too late to get back up again
You may be knocked down,
But not out forever,

This is love [lose our way] callin' love callin' [get back up again]
To the broken
This is love [never too late] callin'
[may be knocked down but not out forever]
This is love [lose our way] callin' love callin' [we get back up again]
To the broken
This is love [never too late] callin'
[may be knocked down but not out forever]

This is love callin' love callin'
Out to the broken,
This is love callin'....
