American Idol - David Cook

I haven't ever really kept up with American Idol since Mandisa days. It has definitely been a long time since that season. But, tonight I was halfway listening to it with David while selecting my 7th memory verse for 2009 when David Cook came on...and oh my goodness. His latest release is so my theme song for my husband.


Artist: David Cook
Song: Come Back To Me


You say you gotta go and find yourself
You say that you're becoming someone else
Don't recognize the face in the mirror
Looking back at you

You say you're leavin
As you look away
I know theres really nothin left to say
Just know i'm here
Whenever you need me
I'll wait for you

So i'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you come back to me

Take your time i wont go anywhere
Picture you with the wind in your hair
I'll keep your things right where you left them
I'll be here for you

Oh and i'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you come back to me

And i hope you find everything that you need
I'll be right here waiting to see
You find you come back to me

I can't get close if your not there
I can't get inside if theres no soul to bear
I can't fix you i can't save you
Its something you have to do

So i'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you come back to me
Come back to me

So i'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you come back to me

And i hope you find everything that you need
I'll be right here waiting to see
You find you come back to me

When you find you come back to me
When you find you come back to me
When you find you come back to me


This is exactly what I've been needing to say to David, but I didn't have the words to say. I am so grateful God allowed me to hear this song. Even though David isn't "truly" leaving I think he has in many aspects. He's just not the man I've known for the last 25 years. I know he has to do all that he is doing to "find" himself. I just pray when he has found himself, he'll still want to be right here with us and finally comfortable in our home once again.

I also think this is a song God has sung to me throughout my life. God lets us go and He is waiting with open arms to hold us and state we've been inscribed in the palm of HIS hands all along. I am in awe of how God has allowed this secular song to speak to me and ease my heart from so much pain. God has also allowed Angie from Bring the Rain blog at http://audreycaroline.blogspot.com/2009/03/canvas.html to speak to me today with her "Canvas" post. I love how God continually speaks to me and how He is overflowing me with blessings at this time.
