Recently I have been replaying (I mean over and over!) a song/video by Rosanne Cash and her husband, called "September When It Comes". For some reason I can't get enough of it. The only thing I would change about the lyrics is the very first line, which says: "There's a crossabove the baby's bed, a savior in her dreams." When I sing along with it, I replace that part with words that I made up myself, like this: "The BUG above the baby's bed, became a spider in her dreams."

It's an absolutely beautiful song! Here are the lyrics so that you can sing along with Rosanne:
Enjoy it and yourself,September When It Comes
Rosanne Cash & John B Leventhal
Key: Em
Chords on Guitar: Em--C--G--D--Am
There's a cross (BUG) above the baby's bed
A savior (SPIDER) in her dreams
But she was not delivered then
And the baby became me
There's a light inside the darkened room
A footstep on the stair
A door that I forever close
To leave those memories there
So when the shadows lengthen
Into an evening sun
First there's summer, then I'll let you in
September when it comes
I plan to crawl outside these walls
Close my eyes and see
And fall into the heart and arms
Of those who wait for me
I cannot move a mountain now
I can no longer run
I cannot be who I was then
In a way I never was
I watch the clouds go sailing
I watch the clock and sun
Oh I watch myself depending on
September when it comes
When the shadows lengthen
And burn away the past
They will fly me like an angel to
A place where I can rest
When this begins I'll let you in
September when it comes
