In the Moonlight

I recieved one of my packages from Amazon last week.  It contained the CD In the Moonlight by Dawn Mitschelle.  I. LOVE. IT!!  I thought I loved her Town of Trees EP, and I DO, but In the Moonlight has more to love.  Like 6 more songs worth.  Not all the songs on the Town of Trees EP made in onto the In the Moonlight album but I guess that's what EP's are for.

I cannot tell how how much I LOVE Dawn Mitschelle's voice.  If I could pick a voice to have, I would have hers. I. JUST. LOVE. IT!

I, also, love her songs.  The emotions behind them.  The bareness of some of them.  Seriously, CHECK HER OUT!

Here are some of my favorite songs from  In the Moonlight that I can find video's for...

Anchor -

"Love me, love me
Say that you will
It sounds so simple
But it fools me, it fools me
Oh so well, that I can barely tell.

What is a cup if its turned upside down?
I know I'll miss having you around.
What is an anchor, if its not tied to a chain?
I know that its not worth the pain.

It'll heal you, heal you
To let me go
So you can grow
Until fire, oh fire
It burns again, I know you'll get another chance.

What is a cup if its turned upside down?
I know I'll miss having you around.
What is an anchor, if its not tied to a chain?
I know that its not worth the pain.

And oh we are, so hungry for
A sure thing
And oh we are, so tired of
All this guessing.
But there's no need to feed,
This desire to sleep anymore.

And you touch me, without using your hands
But I can feel you everywhere
And you know me, you know me
Without a word
And I am finally heard,
Yes, I am finally heard."

"Old Weathered Fences" -

"I see you in things like
Old weathered fences
And I know you'd like to take
a photograph
I hear you in things like
Passing conversation
And I know exactly
when you'd react.

You are,
yes you're taking up all of my time
even though I never see your face.
You are,
You're only in my mind and in all
Of those pretty things
That I will find here along my way.
They're captured so sweetly
In those signs that greet me
How they lead me towards your memory.

I feel you in things like
Late nights in summertime
You'd count the stars
Lying on your back
And I hear you in things like
My father's stories and I
Know exactly
When you'd laugh.

You are,
yes you're taking up all of my time
even though I never see your face.
You are,
You're only in my mind and in all
Of those pretty things
That I will find here along my way.
They're captured so sweetly
In those signs that greet me
How they lead me towards your memory.

Oooh, and your mouth
I can see high up in the clouds
And your hands,
Your hands are in the stems of my garden.
But am I foolish, am I foolish
To think that this could keep me close to you?

You are,
yes you're taking up all of my time
even though I never see your face.
You are,
You're only in my mind and in all
Of those pretty things
That I will find here along my way.
They're captured so sweetly
In those signs that greet me
How they lead me towards your memory"
