I know the heart of life is good

I fell in love with John Mayer’s ‘Continuum’ album this summer. I know it’s not super new or anything, but Josh had it on his iPod and we listened to it frequently in the van.

In my comings and goings from Quincy to see friends and interview (second one this afternoon!!! ) these past few days, I’ve been listening to ‘Continuum’ a lot. And I <3 this song:

I hate to see you cry, lying there in that position.
There’s things you need to hear.
So turn off your tears and listen.
Pain throws your heart to the ground.
Love turns the whole thing around.
No, it won’t all go the way it should.
But I know the heart of life is good.

You know it’s nothing new.
Bad news never had good timing.
Then the circle of your friends
Will defend the silver lining.

Pain throws your heart to the ground.
Love turns the whole thing around.
No, it won’t all go the way it should.
But I know the heart of life is good.

Pain throws your heart to the ground.
Love turns the whole thing around.
Fear is a friend who’s misunderstood,
But I know the heart of life is good.
I know it’s good.

~ “The Heart of Life,” by John Mayer
