Thanks guys, what sweet stories to ease my troubled head at this late/early hour. It's four am and I'm awake again, even though I'm so tired I could drop. Old ghosts to chase away, again. Shadows of things that went bump in the night.
Thanks April for the Goo's song, they are in my top five bands. Love, love LOVE Name. Interesting that song has always come on in the car when I'm on the way to do something really momentous in my life.
When I was driving to the courthouse to finalize my divorce...
when I was going to the airport to pick up Justin for the first time,
when Justin and I were on the way to the airport for the trip to get married...many more, just can't think of them right now.
Seven is a princess, her blood must be blue :) And April, you're such a gem, such a beautiful person made of such strong stuff. I think Gem is a great nickname for you. Whaddya think?
A song for my weary soul tonight...
Call you up in the middle of the night
like a firefly without a light
you were there like a blowtorch burning
I was a key that could use a little turning
so tired that I coudln't even sleep
so many secrets I couldn't keep
I promised myself I wuoldn't weep,
one more promise I couldn't keep
it seems no one can help me now
i'm in too deep
there's no way out
this time I have really led myself astray
runaway train never going back
wrong way on a one way track
seems like I should be getting somewhere
somehow I'm neither here nor there
can you help me remember how to smile?
make it somehow all seem worthwhile
how on earth did I get so jaded
life's mysteries seem so faded
I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
here I am just drowning in the rain
with a ticket for a runaway train
everything seems cut and dry
day and night
earth and sky
somehow I just don't believe it
runaway train, never going back
wrong way on a one way track
seems like i should be getting somewhere
somehow i'm neither here nor there...
bought a ticket for a runaway train
like a madman laughing at the rain
a little out of touch, a little insane
it's just easier than dealing with the pain
runaway train, never going back
wrong way on a one way track
seems like i should be getting somewhere
somehow i'm neither here nor there...
runaway train never coming back
runaway train tearing up the track
runaway train burning in my veins
run away but it always seems the same.
