I love this song right now

I'm not a big Matchbox 20 fan, but I love this song from Rob Thomas, called "Little Wonders." The lyrics are below.

"Little Wonders"
by Rob Thomas

Let it go,
Let it roll right off your shoulder
Don't you know
The hardest part is over
Let it in,
Let your clarity define you
In the end
We will only just remember how it feels

Our lives are made
In these small hours
These little wonders,
These twists & turns of fate
Time falls away,
But these small hours,
These small hours still remain

Let it slide,
Let your troubles fall behind you
Let it shine
Until you feel it all around you
And i don't mind
If it's me you need to turn to
We'll get by,
It's the heart that really matters in the end

Our lives are made
In these small hours
These little wonders,
These twists & turns of fate
Time falls away,
But these small hours,
These small hours still remain

All of my regret
Will wash away some how
But i can not forget
The way i feel right now

In these small hours
These little wonders
These twists & turns of fate
These twists & turns of fate
Time falls away but these small hours
These small hours, still remain,
Still remain
These little wonders
These twists & turns of fate
Time falls away
But these small hours
These little wonders still remain

Blast from the past

Listening to the radio on my drive home today, I got a blast from the past. "Walk the Dinosaur" by Was not Was! I was so excited! I remember loving this song so much back in 1988. As the song neared the end, it took a turn for the worst...why would this strange, confused singer kill a dinosaur?? And how could I have forgotten about this part of the song?? Had I never listened to the end of the song before? Was I just a crazed 8 year-old, shouting at the top of my lungs about dinosaurs, drowning out the awful turn of events for this poor beast?

So many questions...so few answers.

Lyrics:
It was a night like this
forty million years ago
I lit a cigarette
picked up a monkey
start to go.
The sun was spitting fire
the sky was blue as ice
I felt a little tired so I watched "Miami Vice".

I walked a dinosaur
I walked a dinosaur!
Open the door
get on the floor
everybody walk the dinosaur.
Open the door
get on the floor
everybody walk the dinosaur.
Open the door
get on the floor
everybody walk the dinosaur.
Open the door
get on the floor
everybody walk the dinosaur.

Boom boom acka-lacka-lacka boom
boom boom acka-lacka boom boom. . .

I met you in a cave
you were painting Buffalo
I said I'd be your slave
follow wherever you go.
That night we split a rattlesnake and danced beneath the stars
You fell asleep
I stayed awake and watched the passing cars.

I walked a dinosaur
I walked a dinosaur! . . .

A shadow from the sky
much too big to be a bird
A screaming
crashing noise
louder than I've ever heard.
It looked like two big silver trees
that somehow learned to soar
Suddenly a summer breeze and a mighty lion's roar.

I killed a dinosaur
I killed a dinosaur!
Open the door
get on the floor
everybody kill the dinosaur.
Open the door
get on the floor
everybody kill the dinosaur.
Open the door
get on the floor
everybody kill the dinosaur.
Open the door
get on the floor
everybody kill the dinosaur.
Open the door
get on the floor
everybody kill the dinosaur.

Boom boom acka-lacka-lacka boom
boom boom acka-lacka boom boom. . .
Boom boom acko-locka-lacka boom
boom boom acka-lacko boom boom. . .
