John Legend - All of Me (Edited Video)

Your Name Changed

I didn't realize it was you, it's always been you.
The stars have been guiding our hearts to see.

I didn't realize at the time.
At least not to my knowledge.

But I look at you now.
I look at you when you wear me.

It's you who has believed in me all along.
It's you who has carried me through.

That's how you feel.
I didn't know back then.

I missed you so much.
You lifted me.

I didn't realize at the time.
I let the light guide me.

Your wings looked so different.
But I loved them still.

Now I look at you when you wear me.
You're a strong man mostly thanks to my Mother.

Golden Son

You’re always on my mind. 

I think someone is fine
my eyes want to look with amazement
When I catch a glimpse of you
realize you’re the one I want to look at more. 

I see that smile light up your face
The one that made me like your person
from the first moment we met. 

I see you and wonder
when I’m with you
Am I sleeping or awake
The lines just stay blurry
raising our children together. 

We love to see you smile
our children and I
We understand those smiles erupt
when true happiness occurs. 

The Gift

This is probably the first year I've ever known what I wanted to get my Mom for her Birthday. My sons and I walked into the shop to the area I knew it was. I asked for the price and was given the answer. "Can I have it?" I asked, delighted it was within the budget I set for her gift.

The man referred to it as the best in the world and I thought to myself, yes, it is.

When I left the shop I thought about what he said. I wondered if he was reading aloud what I thought about it. Yes, I do think it's the best thing in the world.

My son asked, "Can I give it to Grandma?"
I replied, "Yes".
He smiled, "I'm excited and nervous to give it to her."
I smile with more than just my mouth.

RN

I sit down at the table with my new pen in hand. It says two letters I'm familiar with as a result of a family history full of them... RN.
It was in the drawer of a piece of furniture my Mom bought Michael and I for our Birthdays. I opened the drawer, expecting no more than emptiness and I found it.
The pen matches the particular piece of furniture it was in. It's relatively ancient. I look at it and think, "It's gorgeous!". Not to mention, it writes well.
I love it. Not for what it is exactly, but because it gives me thoughts of hope, health, love, healing and wellness.
A gifted piece of furniture, sourced from some of my favorite people and RN's, arrives this pen. Was it intentionally placed in the drawer for me?
I wonder.
And so I decide to make it work.
