Week 18 - Get Here

Welcome back to another exciting week with us! I am so beyond excited to come here each week and offer you some lyricical inspiration and see just how you can use it to wow and inspire us in return! You have yet to disappoint! :)

This week's song is 'Get Here' by Oleta Adams. The lyrics are almost as beautiful as the powerful voice behind them so I truly hope you are able to use them to create something wonderufl!!

This week we are being sponsored by The Paper Trail!!!

A paper trail is defined as "documents from which a person's actions may be traced". This is exactly what I feel scrapbooking is all about - creating and leaving a paper trail of our lives. So, come on in to my store The Paper Trail where you will find scrapbooking supplies like those in your neighborhood scrapbooking boutiques. All items in the store are always below MSRP so that your "trail" can be inexpensive too!! I am constantly adding new items and sales so check back often.

They have offered up to the winner a $20 gift certificate to the paper Trail store!!

You can reach me by railway,
You can reach me by trailway
You can reach me on an airplane,
You can reach me with your mind
You can reach me by caravan,
Cross the desert like an Arab man
I don't care how you get here,
just get here if you can

You can reach me by sail boat,
Climb a tree and swing rope to rope
Take a sled and slide down the slope
Into these arms of mine
You can jump on a speedy colt,
Cross the border in a blaze of hope
I don't care how you get here,
just get here if you can

There are hills and mountains between us
Always something to get over
If I had my way, surely you would be closer
I need you closer oh closer

You can windsurf into my life,
Take me up on a carpet ride
You can make it in a big balloon,
But you better make it soon
You can reach me by caravan,
Cross the desert like an Arab man yeah
I don't care how you get here,
just get here if you can

I don't care, I need you right here right now
I need you right here right now right by my side
Yeah yeah yeah
I don't care how you get here, just get here, get here
I don't care how you get here, just get here if you can
Get here if you can

  4. This song always immediately makes me think of the Gulf war. It was played all the time on the radio then during Operation Desert Storm.
