**looks around and realizes the bar is empty...thinks it's time to listen to some tunes and ambles over to the jukebox**

Solsbury Hill...one of my faves....

Climbing up on Solsbury hill
I could see the city light
Wind was blowing, time stood still
Eagle flew out of the night

He was something to observe
Came in close, I heard a voice
Standing stretching every nerve
I had to listen had no choice

I did not believe the information
Just had to trust imagination
My heart was going boom boom, boom
Son, he said, grab your things, I’ve come to take you home.

To keeping silence I resigned
My friends would think I was a nut
Turning water into wine
Open doors would soon be shut

So I went from day to day
Tho’ my life was in a rut
’till I thought of what I’d say
Which connection I should cut

I was feeling part of the scenery
I walked right out of the machinery
My heart was going boom boom boom
Hey, he said, grab your things, I’ve come to take you home.
Yeah back home

When illusion spin her net
I’m never where I want to be
And liberty she pirouette
When I think that I am free

Watched by empty silhouettes
Who close their eyes, but still can see
No one taught them etiquette
I will show another me

Today I don’t need a replacement
I’ll tell them what the smile on my face meant
My heart was going boom boom boom
Hey, I said, you can keep my things, they’ve come to take me home.



:dance: Spins and twirls out of the bar and into the streets...:dance:

Now all I need is a roomie for Friday and Saturday nights. :hmm:

Hey, if you can't have my cousin, there's always lil' ol me. :wink:

In other news: I just sprained my ankle 45 minutes ago! I was walking out my back door when my foot hit a golf-ball sized bit of ice, my ankle started to roll and my entire weight went down on it. I'm lucky I didn't break it...although I think I may have torn a ligament, it certainly feels that way. Right now my foot is elevated on the computer desk with ice packs wrapped around it. Not fun :|
 
who's your cousin Dave?



hi folks btw :wave:






going to bed very soon
 
hi lauren :wave:


how are you? how did your evening with your friend go? - the guy whose relationship had finished.
 
haha.....it was fun. Yes, we are just friends. It was good; I think we'll do it again sometime and I won't be worried about it then. :up:
 
that's good....so no rebound danger.


anyway, i gotta rush off to bed (and force myself to sleep) as i' completely forgot that i have to be somewhere to tomorrow.


g'dnight y'all

oh really :eyebrow:

Where will we go?

i'll pick you up, we'll go driving in my car until i stop somewhere in the country at sunset.

we'll get out, lead you down the empty and endless gravel road land when your hand touches mine the sky and everything around you'll turn into the theatre of my mind, showing you all the bliss the heaviest drug can only get high on to ever hope to create for itself.

colours will explode, you'll fly and until you want off, this ride will be the time of your life.
 
Hm, I am not convinced.

I bet you tell that to all the girls. And aren't those song lyrics?

:laugh:

:laugh:

they're not song lyrics.

they are, however, representative of me trying so hard to blow your mind that it comes across as embarassingly desperate.
 
I already know you're desperate. I think you want all the females on interference :wink:

You have good taste with that though. :up:

i don't want all of them, i just want some of them so they can briefly believe we were meant for each other.

evil?

of course. but i've always said i was extremely good looking (computer!! insert picture here. end comand, computer!) and completely lucid in thought and translation onto proverbial paper.
