Day 602 - Day 237

“Like the dawn of a brand new day With the power of deity. Well, I can feel it inside of me. Feel it. Can you feel it?”

Once: Van Halen, Van Halen 3

 

This song always spoke to me on so many levels visually and musically. I can still close my eyes and always have a different mental image come to me… but the one that always comes back is the dawn of a new day.

 

This song speaks of love- the power that love has to move you, surround you, infect you and change you. I can’t think of a better way to be healed than through love. Sunrises always speak to me because they are that new beginning. Sure they are to a new day- but they are not always the same.

Lyrics:

Once embraced, can't ever be let go

Once revealed, can't ever be not shown

Once believed, can't ever lose faith

Once shared, can't ever be separate

Once sown, once can't ever be not reaped

 

Like the dawn of a brand new day

With the power of deity

Well, I can feel it inside of me

Feel it. Can you feel it?

 

Once born, can't ever be not conceived

Once present, can't ever be past

Once first, once can't ever be not everlast

 

Returning home of the prodigal

Holding the intangible

To believe in a miracle

Believe it. Can you believe it?

 

Have you ever been touched?

Once whoa, really touched?

Could it ever be too much?

Whoa-oh-oh, can you tell me?

 

Once seen, can't ever lose sight

Once dawn, can't ever be not light

Once, once felt, once felt

Can't ever be untouched

 

The assurance only hope can bring

With the conviction of the unseen

See it's greater than everything

See it, oh can you see it?

 

Have you ever been touched?

Once whoa-oh really, really touched?

Could it ever be too much?

Whoa-ooh-oh oh, can you tell me?

Have you ever really touched love once?

 

Oh! Have you ever been touched?

Once whoa-oh-oh really touched?

Could it ever be too much?

I don't know. Did you tell me?

Have you ever really touched

Once. Whoa-oh really, really touched?

 

Could it ever be too much?

Oh-ooh somebody tell me

Have you ever really touched

Love once?

 

Ah, have you ever really touched

Love once?

Have you ever really touched love

Touched love?
