It's not that I'm a fan....

I was about to rid myself of Steve Winwood on the drive home today, when a part of Back In The High Life Again caught my attention:

But when you're born to run, It's so hard to just slow down.

It was kind of ironic, too, because I was in the midst of some uber-bitchy self ranting about how only pathetic people with nothing going on in their lives enjoy being pregnant. I had decided that if I enjoyed doing nothing but sleeping and eating I'd be lovin' life, but instead I am desperate to GET OUT! Sure, I want a margarita, and a wasitline, and some new running shoes...but I'd be pretty happy taking my new Ergo to Great Falls with the kiddies and the dog. I thought this 70 degree whether would do me in, but it actually put me in a better mood. And so I enjoyed the rest of Winwood...as I sped down the parkway along the river at a smooth 70mph.

It used to seem to me
That my life ran on too fast
And I had to take it slowly
Just to make the good parts last
But when youre born to run
Its so hard to just slow down
So dont be surprised to see me
Back in that bright part of town

Ill be back in the high life again
All the doors I closed one time will open up again
Ill be back in the high life again
All the eyes that watched me once will smile and take me in
And Ill drink and dance with one hand free
Let the world back into me
And on Ill be a sight to see
Back in the high life again

You used to be the best
To make life be life to me
And I hope that youre still out there
And youre like you used to be
Well have ourselves a time
And well dance til the morning sun
And well let the good times come in
And we wont stop til were done

Well be back in the high life again
All the doors I closed one time will open up again
Well be back in the high life again
All the eyes that watched us once will smile and take us in
And well drink and dance with one hand free
And have the world so easily
And oh well be a sight to see
Back in the high life again

Well be back in the high life again
All the doors I closed one time will open up again
Well be back in the high life again
All the eyes that watched us once will smile and take us in

And well drink and dance with one hand free
And have the world so easily
And oh well be a sight to see
Back in the high life again
