Chilling in a field, on a blanket with my two favorite people!

Okay, so I was listening to the song on the way home from work last night and i heard this song that instantly made me think of chilling on a blanket on a summer night with Erica and Jesus just BSing and laughing. The song is called "Chasing Cars" by a band named Snow Patrol. And, if you have ever heard the song you know that it has nothing to do with laying in a field but so what! When I got home, I told Erica about my little Utopian moment and she was like - Yeah Whatever! Then I showed her the lyrics and she was all like "OMG! I love that song and I always think of the same thing when I hear it". So I posted it to let you all know that we both still think alike and those thoughts still include Jesus (Trust me, when you read the post I am going to write in about 10 minutes you will need to remind yourself that I posted this one). As in true Nevius tradition I stole the lyrics from another website and I will include them at the end of this post (What can I say, my ancestors were Viking Pirates - its in my blood).

Chasing Cars
by
Snow Patrol
We'll do it all Everything
On our own
We don't need
Anything Or anyone
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
