Judie's notes on For J.A.N. (inspired by Shawn Colvin)...

A special song written for my youngest son when he was a senior in high school.

For J.A.N. (inspired by Shawn Colvin) lyrics

I don't know why the sky is so blue
and I don't know why you do the things you do
but if there were no music then you would not get thru
and I don't know why I know these things but I do.

I don't know why but somewhere dreams come true
and I don't know where but there'll be a place for you
cuz you've got what it takes to succeed
it's right here inside of you
and I don't know why I know these things I just do.

I don't know why sometimes you make me cry
and I don't know why cuz you could do so much better
   if you'd just try
sometimes I wish you could see yourself
the way that I see you
then you'd know why I feel the things that I do.

I don't know why but sometimes life's not fair
and I don't know when but it gets better if you care
  and I know you care
so stand up tall and be yourself
and know I believe in you
and don't ask why I know these things I just do.

I don't know why you've got the gift of song in your soul
and I don't know when but there'll be a place
  to let it show, and you'll know
cuz if there were no music
then you would not get thru
and I don't know why I know these things but I do
No I don't know why I know these things I just do.
