I'm Saving You the Best Way I Know How.

I first heard much of Ingrid Micahelson's songs from my photographer, www. filterpan.com, during my photoshoot last October 2010. The songs, as part of my music background, she played on her BlackBerry were of Ingrid's songs that makes you want to pose young, hippy, and candid looks. Ingrid's voice is more of like Sara Bareilles, they're actually "look-alikes" for me. Haha. Very soothing, sweet, smooth, and simple. Even the messages sing of love, love for anyone, to your mom, dad, sister, brother, sister, and to someone you think you ♥.

Here's one of my favorite:

Lyrics:

When I would play my song
You used to sing along.
I always seem to forget
How fragile are the very strong.
I'm sorry I can't steal you
I'm sorry I can't stay
So I put band-aids on your knees
And watch you fly away

I'm sending you away tonight
I'll put you on a bird's strong wing
I'm saving you the best way I know how
I hope again one day to hear you sing

You know we're not so far away
Get on a boat, get on a train
And if you ever think you're drowning
I'll try to slow the rain
In two years or so
Drop me a line
Write me a letter
I hope to find you're doing better, better than today, better everyday.

I'm sending you away tonight
I'll put you on a bird's strong wing
I'm saving you the best way I know how
I hope again one day to hear you sing
I'm saving you the only way that I know how
I hope again one day to hear you sing
I hope again one day to see you bring your smile back around again
