Do you know about Dave Barnes? I’ve loved him for a long time. He’s a Christian and has an amazing voice. One of my favorite DB songs is “Nothing Fancy.” I haven’t listened to it in a while, but tonight I was cleaning house to iTunes and it came on and reminded me of sitting in Ella’s nursery humming the tune to her in the middle of the night. It perfectly describes how I feel about my family.
It’s nothing you could not find in any other man.
Nothing fancy about the way I love you,
but I love you as hard as I can.
There’s no good reason for the way you love me,
’cause your my walking dream come true.
No good reason for the way you love me,
but I thank God that you do.
I don’t know the perfect conversation,
I don’t know the way to turn your head.
I don’t know the perfect way to prove my love,
but I know I’ll love you ’til I’m dead.
There’s nothing fancy about the way I love you,
simple as the stars in the sky and the blue in the sea.
Nothing fancy about the way I love you,
but it sure is fancy how you love me.”
Nothing Fancy, Dave Barnes
