  • Great Music of 2008: My Grey's Anatomy Pick



    Comes and Goes (in waves) by Greg Laswell


    LYRICS
    This one's for the lonely
    The ones that seek and find
    Only to be let down
    Time after time

    This one's for the torn down
    The experts at the fall
    Common friends get up now
    You're not alone at all

    And this part was for her
    This part was for her
    This part was for her
    Does she remember?

    It comes and goes in waves, i....

    This one's for the faithless
    The ones that are surprised
    They are only where they are now
    Regardless of their fight

    This one's for believing
    If only for it's sake
    Common friends get up now
    Love is to be made

    And this part was for her
    This part was for her
    This part was for her
    Does she remember?

    It comes and goes in waves,
    I am only let to wonder why
    It comes and goes in waves
    I am only let to wonder why
    Why I try

    This is for the ones who stand
    For the ones who try again
    For the ones who need a hand
    For the ones who think they can

    It comes and goes in waves,
    I am only let to wonder why
    It comes and goes in waves
    I am only let to wonder why
    Why I try


    Why I like this song: I don't care about George, Izzie, Meredith, McSteamy/McDreamy, or any of their ilk anymore.  It's too soap opera-esque for my taste (some would argue it always has been... rubbish!).  I first heard a Greg Laswell song last year on Grey's Anatomy and really dug it.  I bought both of his albums immediately and dug them.  For me, he's the intersection of Gomez, Mat Kearney, and Chris Martin.  Great stuff.

    Other reasons why I like this song:
    • The glockenspiel in the middle of the song to the end (it was the instrument I played for many years).
    • The banjo picking.
    • The first line of the song is a nice opening line.
