Our baby girl rocked out at her first concert tonight, hearing Mason Jennings croon and play guitar. She definitely had her favorite songs, to which she kicked away with her own rhythm. Heather was sure she was dancing. The entire show was great, but one song struck us especially hard, "Ballad For My One True Love." Here are the words, and a link to the song:
Sleeping in a cherry tree
High above a monastery
Where the bells are ringing slow
To say farewell when hours go
And all the while I'm dreaming of
The ballad for my one true love
Searching for the perfect way to say
I love you
Sweetheart, this is my dream come true
And god bless the babies
That sleep in you
God bless the babies
That sleep in you
Sleeping in a motel room
Underneath a silver moon
With the windows open wide
I can hear the stars go by
And all the while I 'm dreaming of
The ballad for my one true love
Searching for the perfect way to say
I love you
Sweetheart, this is my dream come true
And god bless the babies
That sleep in you
God bless the babies
That sleep in you
