Say It With A Song - Vol. 1

I love music. A lot.

Music scores my life. I seek it out and use it to explore, express and heighten emotion. I tend to post music here (and at at Giggle Throttle) that moves me, physically and emotionally, and at times I post music can speak on my behalf - when words fail me. I'd like to do the latter more often. So begins a Thoreau Up series, Say It With A Song.

Here's today's anthem.

Dance, Dance, Dance by Lykke Li




Having troubles telling how I feel
But I can dance, dance, dance
Couldn't possibly tell you how I mean
But I can dance, dance, dance
So when I trip on my feet
Look at the beat
The words are, written in the sand
When I'm shaking my hips
Look for the swing
The words are written in the air

Dance,
I was a dancer all along
Dance, dance, dance
Words can never make up for what you do

Easy conversations, there's no such thing
No I'm shy, shy, shy
My hips they lie 'cause in reality I'm shy, shy, shy
But when I trip on my feet
Look at the ground
The words are written in the dust
When I'm shaking my hips
Look for the swing
The words are written in the air

Dance,
I was a dancer all along
Dance, dance, dance
Words can never make up for what you do

Dance, dance, dance
