Haven't Given Up

[ithildin]

I actually wrote about a page today of the second part of 'The Silent Stars Go By'. Hopefully, I'll get more done tomorrow. so I'm still not totally outside the chance of getting it all finished by New Years!

Along the way tonight, I found the song that goes with it: Lullaby by the Dixie Chicks



They didn't have you where I come from
Never knew the best was yet to come
Life began when I saw your face
And I hear your laugh like a serenade

How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough
Cause I'm never, never giving you up

I slip in bed when you're asleep
To hold you close and feel your breath on me
Tomorrow there'll be so much to do
So tonight I'll drift in a dream with you

How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough
Cause I'm never, never giving you up

As you wander through this troubled world
In search of all things beautiful
You can close your eyes when you're miles away
And hear my voice like a serenade

How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough
Cause I'm never, never giving you up

How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough
Cause I'm never, never giving you up
Is forever enough
Cause I'm never, never giving you up



Obviously the title of the story is from "Little Town of Bethlehem", but I'm a fic soundtrack whore, I admit it :) And I'm a sucker for a plaintive fiddle. This song just seems to fit right now.

So now to bed, and more writing tomorrow. I hope.
