    Never Saw Blue Like That...

    Katie Reider's cover of Tom Kimmel's gorgeous penning came up in my Windows Media shuffle...more prayers to Katie's family, loved ones, and fans...

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Today I took a walk up the street
    I picked a flower and climbed the hill
    Above the lake
    And secret thoughts were said aloud
    We watched the faces in the clouds
    Until the clouds had blown away

    And were we ever somewhere else
    Who knows, it's hard to say

    But I never saw blue like that before
    Across the sky
    Around the world
    And you've given me all you have and more
    And no one else has ever shown me how
    To see the world the way I see it now
    Oh, I, I never saw blue like that

    I can't believe a month ago I was alone,
    I didn't know you
    I hadn't seen you or heard you're name
    But even now,
    I'm so amazed
    It's like a dream,
    It's like a rainbow,
    It's like the rain

    And some things are the way they are
    And words just can't explain

    But I never saw blue like that before
    Across the sky
    Around the world
    And you've given me all you have and more
    No one else has ever shown me how
    To see the world the way I see it now

    Oh, I, I never saw blue like that
    And it feels like now,
    And it feels always,
    And it feels like coming home

    But I never saw blue like that before
    Across the sky
    Around the world
    And you've given me all you have and more
    No one else has ever shown me how
    To see the world the way i see it now
    Oh, I, I never saw blue like that before

    That is my favorite Shawn Colvin song.  So beautiful.  I'll check out this version, though...

    @Blue__Summer - yes, definitely.  Shawn Colvin's version is awesome, too, but Katie's is gorgeous.  Tom Kimmel is also going to release it on his own upcoming album soon.  There is nothing like hearing him sing it live.  *sigh*  One of the most beautiful songs ever written. 


    btw, Katie's version can be found on her "Simplicity" album.

    Hello Ms. Kris,
    Your site is so simple yet elegant but I see that you don’t write here much anymore!
    I want to help people to really get to know what Jehovah God’s plans are for us, especially in these troubled times: 17You make God tired with all your talk. "How do we tire him out?" you ask. By saying, "God loves sinners and sin alike. God loves all." And also by saying, "Judgment? God's too nice to judge." (Malachi 2:17) (Message Bible)
