under control

I don't wanna waste your time
I don't wanna waste your time
I just wanna say, I've got to say
We were good, darling
We don't have no control
We're under control

I don't wanna do it your way
I don't wanna do it your way
I don't wanna give it to you your way
I don't want to, no

I don't wanna change your mind
I don't wanna change the world
I just wanna watch it go by
I just wanna watch you go by
We were young, darling
We don't have no control
We're out of control

I don't wanna do it your way
I don't wanna do it your way
I don't wanna give it to you your way
I don't want to, no

I don't wanna change your mind
I don't wanna waste your time
I just wanna know you're alright
I've got to know you're alright
You are young, darling, for now
But not for long, under control

love remains the same

I wish I can embed the video but I can't find one that allows me to... Beautiful melody. I guess the lyrics will just have to do...

A thousand times I’ve seen you standing
Gravity like lunar landing
You make me wanna run till I find you
I shut the world away from here
Drift to you, you’re all I hear
As everything we know fades to black

Half the time the world is ending
Truth is I am done pretending

I never thought that I had anymore to give
You’re pushing me so far
Here I am without you
Drink, to all that we have lost
Mistakes we have made
Everything will change
But love remains the same

Find a place where we escape
Take you with me for a space
The city bus sounds just like a fridge
I walk the streets through seven bars
I have to find just where you are
The faces seem to blurr
They’re all the same

Half the time the world is ending
Truth is I am done pretending

I never thought that I had anymore to give
You’re pushing me so far
Here I am without you
Drink, to all that we have lost
Mistakes we have made
Everything will change
But love remains the same

So much more to say
So much to be done
Don’t you trick me now
We shall overcome
So all that’s left is praying
But we, should have had the sun
We could have been inside
Instead we’re over here

Half the time the world is ending
Truth is I am done pretending

Too much time too long defending
You and I are done pretending
I, never thought that I had anymore to give
You’re pushing me so far
Here I am without you
Drink, to all that we have lost
Mistakes we have made
Everything will change
I wish this could last forever
I as if we could last forever

Love remains the same

goodbye 2008

she's fly effortlessly...

for conversation's sake

As it turns out, it is no more. It is staring at me.

Last Sunday I unfortunately had to come back from a great break in the sun. Had a brilliant time doing holiday things and all things Siam (in my book, anyway) in lovely Koh Samui. Fortunately, my luck at Gin has turned and I can even kick ass despite being inebriated :)

to err is human, to forgive is divine...

...but what qualifies as an "err" is a very relevant consideration.

Recently there was a gentle reminder for me that you can almost always only count on yourself. Disappointment follows directly the extent of the intent. Nothing to create drama over, though. I accept that we are all only human, we make mistakes and we have our moments.

Don’t you love it when we each make the time? To finally catch up with friends, see how we’ve each grown and reflect on the common bond we share. Despite the years, the differences, the imperfections, the growth, the misunderstandings, everything and anything that could be viewed as a hindrance. To rise above them -- how far we have come…

I love you peeps!
