lyrics.

Sometimes after I hear a new song on the radio, it gets stuck in my head. Sometimes I don't catch all of the words, just the tune and stuttering of syllables. I try to sing my way through it to try to find those missing words. Sometimes I forget them altogether and I’m stuck with:
da dah da dah dada
da dahda da dahda da daaaaaah dahhhh
hmmm da dah dah dada da
da dah daaah dada da hmmm  daaaa dah

I’m a resourceful person. I’m a creative person. I think outside the box, and I make up my own words.
                        I feel the night come down
                        darkness, and I will come find you.
hmmm da dah dah dada da
there’s just something about the night time.

And then I hear that song again, and the words are wrong, and the tune isn’t quite what I remembered, and I wish they wrote it my way because it stuck much better in my head.

Close your eyes. Open your mind.

I know that feeling. And from that moment on, no matter how many times you hear the actual song, you will still sing it your way or a mixture of the right way and your way!

@Pat - I like to think that everyone does, it makes life much better :)
@Rapunzel - it gets sketchy when I'm in the car with someone else and I realize I'm singing the song *my* way, and they're shooting me dirty looks for being silly hahaha :)
