angelyne

Here comes the weather
It's looking like another storm
If all desire
Would leave this tired boy alone
Hopes haunt me like ghosts
They point their fingers
Grass grows in the cracks
Wind makes me shiver
Angelyne, forgive me
We threw it all away
You could never stand living with a man
Who could only lead you half way to love
I tried to fake it
But you wouldn't play along
I watched you naked
Innocent and holding on
Snowflakes make your bones ache in the winter
Your face will not fade, it will just linger
Angelyne, forgive me
We threw it all away
You could never stand living with a man
Who could only lead you half way
Angelyne, forgive me
We threw it all away
I could never fit into your plans
I'm nobody's man
Don't you tell me how to live my life
Don't you tell me how to live my life
Angelyne, forgive me
We threw it all away
You could never stand living with a man
Who could only lead you half way
Angelyne, forgive me
We threw it all away
I could never fit into your plans
I'm nobody's man

this is such a great performance. have you ever listened to a song 100+ times and wondered how the hell you're still so damn entertained after years and years of listening to it? you tap your foot, sway back and forth, close your eyes and sing the words? this is that song for me. it will play on my wedding day, it will be the soundtrack to all memorable events in my life. and if the track isn't handy, it will be the only 3 minutes of music, of lyric...of anything that could relate to any blissful moment to come and has already passed. angelyne, forgive me.
