I'm up late tonight working on a manuscript, listening off and on to early Bob Dylan. If you ever need a good cry in the middle of the night, listen to "Girl from the North Country." I'm writing a tough scene in my story, and, yes, getting pretty misty. Not weepy, just misty. Trust me, that's enough. I need to see to type. This moment grabs my heart and gives it a good squeeze every time:I'm a wonderin' if she remembers me at all.
Many times I've often prayed,
In the darkness of my night,
In the brightness of my day.
I read a great blog post the other day--can't remember where at the moment--about favorite sad songs, songs of heartbreak, songs to nurse a broken heart or maybe even rub salt in the wound. This one would have to be on my list. What songs would you include? I'd love to hear.
