times

I, I'm a one way motorway
I'm the one that drives away
Then follows you back home
I, I'm a street light shining
I'm a wild light blinding bright
Burning off and on
Ah-ah-ahh

It's times like these you learn to live again
It's times like these you give and give again
It's times like these you learn to love again
It's times like these time and time again

I, I'm a new day rising
I'm a brand new sky
To hang the stars upon tonight
I am a little divided
Do I stay or run away
And leave it all behind?
Ah-ah-ahh

It's times like these you learn to live again
It's times like these you give and give again
It's times like these you learn to love again
It's times like these time and time again
{Times Likes These, by Foo Fighters, 2003}

the lyrics to the song stayed in my mind, since hearing them sung recently first by Glen Campbell {as dropped in a playlist on Spotify recently} and the version that Florence Welsh did a few years ago, when she headlined Glastonbury instead of the Foo Fighters, and in a fitting and amazingly beautiful tribute, sang this song by them. it has been a fave by the Foo's for years, i've long liked the vibe of it, but nowadays it seems to fit the mood that i feel i've been in for a while. it's time like these you learn to live again, you give and give again, you learn to love again, time and time again...
