*REVAMP*

Alright, I was politely told these past few days, that my song lyrics blogs were a bit dry. I don't add or write about why I enjoy the song. And I agree. This is my way of expressing, but in such a public format I do have to make it somewhat entertaining for the few people that take the time to read it.

I saw a movie a short while ago called "Closer". Interesting little film. Especially if you have had any experience with using sex as a form of love and attention. And there is a great scene involving cybersex that will have you laughing your ass off. There was a lot of familiarity in this movie. And this song plays at the beginning and the end of it. And it sticks in your head.

Is there something in the lyrics or the voice of the singer that hits a cord in me? Perhaps. Maybe that is why I hum it at work and get strange looks from coworkers.

Music is a part of my soul. And I hear a personal soundtrack when I make my cd's. They usually display parts of me at that moment in time. Every song on this blog, matched what was happening in my life, and I record it here...never to forget.

And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her skies

I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial

I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you...
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind...
My mind...my mind...
'Til I find somebody new

The Blower's Daughter - Damien Rice
