Theme Song for Allaahtba

[purplerabbit]

So you may or may not know that one of these things that can really turn me (on/off up/down) is music. And there are some women's voices that can reach a place in me that is very deep. Tracy Chapman is one of those. So I have been listening to her today and discovered that one of the songs off her last album could be the theme song for the main characters in my book:

I Am Yours

When all my hopes and dreams
Have been betrayed
I stand before you
My hands are empty

I am yours
If you are mine

When I fall and stumble
Flat on my face
When I'm shamed and humbled
In disgrace

I am yours
If you are mine

When voices call me
To question my faith
When misperception
Taints my love with hate

I am yours
If you are mine

When time decides
It won't stop for me
When the hawks and vultures
Are circling

I am yours
If you are mine
