MLL Episode #5 – Shiver Friday April 30th 2010

Do you have a heightened sense of smell or hearing?
Does the forest call to you?
Does the cold make you SHIVER?
Then you MIGHT just be a werewolf, or maybe not!

This month we read the book Shiver By Maggie Stiefvater.  It’s a brilliant story of a girl, Grace, who has a connection with her wolf from the woods behind her house.  Listen in as we share our love and thoughts on this wonderful story.

The song and the lyrics seem to go well with our book of the month so here is the Video from YouTube and I also posted the lyrics just so you can see how close to home it really hits to the book.

Lyrics:
So I look in your direction
But you pay me no attention, do you?
I know you don’t listen to me
‘Cause you say you see straight through me, don’t you?

But on and on
From the moment I wake, to the moment I sleep
I’ll be there by your side; just you try and stop me
I’ll be waitin’ in line, just to see if you care

Oh…
Did you want me to change?
But I’d change for good
And I want you to know that you’ll always get your way
I wanted to say…

Don’t you shiver
Shiver
Sing it loud and clear
I’ll always be waiting for you

So you know how much I need you
But you never even see me, do you?
And is this my final chance of getting you?

And on and on
From the moment I wake, to the moment I sleep
I’ll be there by your side; just you try and stop me
I’ll be waiting in line, just to see if you care, if you care

Oh…
Did you want me to change?
Well I’d change for good
And I want you to know that you’ll always get your way
I wanted to say…

Don’t you shiver
Don’t you shiver
Sing it loud and clear
I’ll always be waitin’ for you

Yeah I’ll always be waiting for you
Yeah I’ll always be waiting for you
Yeah I’ll always be waiting for you, for you
I will always be waiting…

And it’s you I see but you don’t see me
And it’s you I hear so loud and so clear
I sing it loud and clear
And I’ll always be waiting for you

So I look in your direction
But you pay me no attention
And you know how much I need you
But you never even see me

Ok I was a little excited when I saw this, it is so awesome, I can’t wait, hurry up June 30!!!!! Jasper was awesome, Love Him
