This song is dedicated to all the friends I have made on Twitter who have turned out to be just who I expected when I met them.
lyrics
In the past I felt alone
Like no one understood me
Even as I have grown
There was no place I could be
The real me
Call me geek or call me freak
The worlds that I was part of
Made me feel I had to tweak
Who I was to get enough
or above
But, oh how lucky I am
To live in these times!
Where technology
Beats geography
And crosses all lines
Chorus:
Meeting you is like meeting an old friend
Only we’re meeting for the first time
We’ve shared passions and stories
And cheered each other’s glories
Long before we ever came eye to eye
My interests are so varied
And don’t connect easily
I constantly need to feed
Right brain and left to be
Happy
Finding just one person who
Can understand these passions
Someone who feels these needs too
Can’t give in to the fashion
Of specializations
Was once the dream
I never dared to dream
Finding a community
What opportunity!
To be part of a team
Chorus
Bridge:
Just one subject may have brought us together
But it turns out our connections run even deeper
It may seem odd to care so about a bunch of “strangers”
But every single one of you is a keeper
Chorus (2x)
