The Sounds of “Private Practice”

This is the third time I’ve come down to the computer after I watch “Private Practice” because I need to read the lyrics to a song that played in the closing scenes of an episode. Third time. And the show has only been on six times.

Tonight it is “All We Are” by Matt Nathanson. And it goes a little like this …

… All we are, we are
All we are, we are
And every day’s a start
At something beautiful

And in the end, the words don’t matter
Cause in the end, nothing stays the same
And in the end, the dreams just scatter and fall like rain

The two others before that …

1. “Save You” by Matthew Perryman Jones

…Watch it all go by
Was it really true
Is that what it was
Was that really you
I’m Looking back again
I’m tracing back a friend
You said it was a miss
Was it just in my head

And so help me decide
Help me to make up
Make up my mind
Wouldn’t that save you
Wouldn’t that save you
Wouldn’t that save you …

2. “Same Mistake” by James Blunt

So while I’m turning in my sheets
And once again, I cannot sleep
Walk out the door and up the street
Look at the stars beneath my feet
Remember rights that I did wrong
So here I go

And maybe someday we will meet
And maybe talk and not just speak
Don’t buy the promises ’cause
There are no promises I keep,
and my reflection troubles me
so here I go …

And, so you know, the show keeps growing on me too. I have to remember that just because it’s a spin-off of “Grey’s Anatomy” doesn’t make it “Grey’s Anatomy: L.A.” Nope. New show. Addison is Addison. But she’s growing as a person and as she does, the show grows on me. And, yes, I like the idea of Addison and Pete.
