Pure Glee from Miss G.


So, I have always been a fan of Gwyneth Paltrow's... even when she was in bad Lifetime made for TV movies. I have also always been a fan of Stevie Nick's Landside. Something about it has always spoken to me at different times in my life. Imagine my delight when I discovered Gwenyth's version of Landslide on Glee! And now, as I am nearing 40, as I still battle my inner child from time to time, as my own child grows older and as I am little by little letting go of things that I've held on to, for better or worse and as I feel the tides change, but manage to grow bolder, this song has never meant more to me. The lyrics are below. Enjoy.

This one's for you daddy.

I took my love and I took it down
I climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
'Till Landslide brought me down

Oh mirror in the sky, what is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life?
Mmm mmm I don’t know

Well I’ve been afraid of changing ‘cause I
Built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older, I’m getting older too

I’ve been afraid of changing ‘cause I
I built my life around you
But time makes you bolder, children get older
I’m getting older too
I’m getting older too
Soo take this love, take it down
Ohh if you climb a mountain and you turn around
If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide will bring it down, down
And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills,
Well maybe, the landslide will bring it down
Well well the landslide with bring it down
