DRIPPING GOLD

THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE JACK JOHNSON SONGS

IT ISN'T PARTICULARLY WELL KNOWN

BUT I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER THE DAY I FIRST HEARD IT

IT WAS PLAYED TO ME ON A RAINY AFTERNOON IN FEBRUARY 2009

I HAD HAD AN EXCEPTIONALLY TOUGH DAY, AND WAS ALMOST TO THE POINT OF TEARS

AND SOMEONE I LOVED VERY MUCH PLAYED THIS TO ME

I REMEMBER IT MADE ME CRY EVEN MORE

BUT I FELT A WHOLE LOT BETTER FOR IT

THERE ARE TIMES IN LIFE WHEN NO MATTER HOW WELL SOMEONE ELSE THINKS YOU ARE DOING

YOU FEEL YOU COULD BE DOING BETTER

THERE ARE TIMES WHEN THINGS ARE HARD, AND DESPITE EVERYONE ACTING LIKE THEY ARE TOUGH,

ALL YOU WANT TO DO IS CRY,

AND IT ACTUALLY DOES MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER

I HOPE THAT IF TODAY IS A HARD DAY AT WORK, AT HOME OR JUST SIMPLY A HARD MOMENT IN LIFE,

YOU FEEL FREE TO CRY ABOUT IT, FEEL SAD, OR BAD OR GRUMPY ABOUT IT

AND THAT DOING SO MAKES YOU FEEL BETTER!

HAVE A GOOD DAY, AND IF YOU DON'T

KNOW THAT TOMORROW WILL BE BETTER
