Sometimes songs form a group - in this case, 3 of Neil Diamond's songs come together for me: Holly Holy, Brother Love's Traveling Salvation Show and Soolaimon seem to form an intense story together...I love them
God of my want, want, want
Lord of my need, need, need
Leading me on, on, on

God of my day, day, day
Lord of my night, night, night
Seek for the way, way, way
Taking me home
She callin'

I love this song..how the light gets in..because we're cracked, we're imperfect...the crack allows the light to get in...what a wonderful concept. It's not perfection, perfection is impervious..it's those little flaws.
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed Everybody knows that the war is over Everybody knows the good guys lost Everybody knows the fight was fixed The poor stay poor, the rich get rich That's how it goes Everybody knows
