andrew and i have always been music fans. we've spent hours listening to music. talking about our favorite bands and guitarists and singers. quizzing each other on the finer points of lyrics, album titles, years of releases and who REALLY sang the first version of "Blinded by the Light."?
so when i was thinking of a blog title for an adoption blog - I couldn't get the idea of integrating lyrics into the blog - out of my head.
the following three songs really convey what i'm trying to get across with the title "i don't you know you yet".
love song for no one - john mayer
- - Searching all my days just to find you/I'm not sure who I'm looking for/I'll know it/When I see you/
to whom it may concern - the civil wars
- - Why are you so far from me?/In my arms is where you ought to be/How long will you make me wait?/I don't know how much more I can take/I missed you/But I haven't met you/Oh but I want to
and lastly....
falling slowly - glen hansard (once)
I don't know you/But I want you
So there you have it. Sometimes music speaks for me when I don't have the words.
I'm excited for you guys.

Beckie, I totally have that song in my head ALL The time when I'm on my blog. I guess that's another song that secretly 'fed' into my blog title. :)
