A song for my beautiful daughter, Leilani Davis, on her 6th birthday. Wish I could be there with you, but where you live isn't safe for good daddies. Just know that I think about you ALL the time and love you very much.

PS - Don't forget to hydrate. It gets hot in Mordor.

Alabama Shakes - I Ain't The Same
From Boys & Girls
Amazon

Well, I've been going through the motions
Wonder if anyone can see
That I've been looking for something
Have you been looking for me?

I ain't the same no more
In fact, I have changed from before
No, you ain't gonna find me
Oh no, 'cause I'm not who I used to be

I used to be a little girl
Just a-smiling, feeling free
I wasn't worried about nobody
Nobody worried about me

But, I ain't the same no more
You'll find I have changed from before
No, you ain't gonna find me
'Cause I ain't who I used to be

I said I'd never grow old
I can't remember how it used to be
I found myself without the power
I found myself without the glory

Listen! I ain't the same no more
You'll find I have changed from before
You ain't gonna find me
Oh no, 'cause I ain't who I used to be
Oh no, no I ain't who I used to be
Oh no, no I ain't who I used to be
Oh no...
