Paved Paradise And Put Up A Parking Lot
Don't it always seem to go That you don't know what you've got till it's gone They paved paradise and put up a parking lot Shoo-bop-bop-bop-(Big Yellow Taxi) Amy Grant version ;) If you are around me long enough there are a couple of songs that you will hear me reference regularly, like they are sort of a theme song of life for me. I am not a hippie, nor did I really know what this song was about when I first heard it on Amy Grant's cd many years ago, but to this day I reference it almost weekly. I use it in reference to do the opposite and be someone who knows what ive got BEFORE its gone. That is why I sing it. To remind myself that I have so many treasures in my life RIGHT NOW to enjoy and love that one day I will wish to have back. It keeps me positive and enjoying what I have now instead of always wanting to move to the next step in life. I wanna know what ive got before "they" put up a parkin...
