Patrick and Maddy's Song

So, I am a huge music fan and am constantly listening to all sorts of music. I have a large vinyl collection as well as cds and most of the day, there is music playing in my house. Today, I was listening to an Incubus cd and this particular song came on. I literally stopped what I was doing and just listened. Dig by Incubus is the perfect song for Patrick and Maddy and upon reading the lyrics, I know for certain that this will always be their song whenever I hear it now.

"Dig"
We all have a weakness
But some of ours are easier to identify.
Look me in the eye
And ask for forgiveness;
We'll make a pact to never speak that word again
Yes you are my friend.
We all have something that digs at us,
At least we dig each other
So when weakness turns my ego up
I know you'll count on the me from yesterday
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone.
We all have a sickness
That cleverly attaches and multiplies
No matter how hard we try.
We all have someone that digs at us,
At least we dig each other
So when sickness turns my ego up
I know you'll act as a clever medicine.
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me.
Sing this song!
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone.
Oh each other....When everything
Else is gone.
~Incubus
