running out of titles!

i'm running out of names for titles...so i'm going to start leaving that blank. i have loved reading ya'lls posts with song lyrics. isn't that cool how we can sortof parallel those love songs to Christ's love for us? it helps us think and see more clearly His unwavering desire and love for us. that is why i loved reading "redeeming love". it comes from such a small, yet powerful book of the Bible, but making into that romantic, deep love story made the love of God seem so much more real and moving.
well guess what- i have a song that i heard yesterday on the radio. does anyone know about the Fray---background? anything about the band? ya'll tell me what you think about this song. i really like the chorus. as far as paralleling it to our walk with the Lord and His relationship to His people and how the songs ya'll have posted shed more light than this song, i think the chorus kindof expresses how we feel sometimes. and i have a quote from my church bulletin that i wanted to send also, but it's in my car and it's raining and i don't want to get off of the couch to go and get it! so i will post it later. here are the lyrics to the song "you found me" by the fray:
I found Godon the corner of First and Amistad
Where the westwas all but won
All along
Smoking his last cigarette
I said, where've you been?
He said, ask anything.
Where were you?
When everything was falling apart.
All my days spent by the telephone.
And all I needed was a call
It never came
To the corner of Firs tand Amistad
Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me
Lying on the floor, surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late.
You found me, you found me.
But in the end
Everyone ends up alone
Losing hope
The only one who's ever known
Who I am, Who I'm not, Who I want to be
No way to know
How long she will be next to me
Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me
Lying on the floor, surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late.
You found me, you found me.
I've been calling for years and years
and you've never left me no messages
Never sent me no letters
Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me
Lying on the floor, surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late.
You found me, you found me.
Lost and insecure, you found me, you found me
Lying on the floor, surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late.
You found me, you found me.

I don't really know about the Fray, but I know that this girl in my painting class has a stack of magazines which appear to be Christian by some of the articles, and the Fray is on the cover of one of the magazines.
