funny thing, i wrote the lines of the poem that this song later was written from, before the relationship began. i guess it was a star-crossed situation from the start. i remember sitting on the piano with a pencil, pad and my little mp3 recorder. for about two days i couldnt focus on anything else. my trusty friend jin came over the day after i finished it and we recorded it in my room. its an old recording, but i've decided to keep it as it is. hope you enjoy. Written January 2006.
lyrics
Oo...
i’m closing my eyes
to keep thoughts of you
from streaming down my face
im fighting now
to somehow keep us alive
cause i know ill never find
someone like you again
i never thought id fall so hard
i never want to get back again
you came so unexpectedly
and now im finding myself
in reverie of you
Oo...
im losing my mind
i cant keep it off of you
wont let me let go of you
a broken record player
plays my sad sad song
i wake up in the darkness
and turn the lights back on
and girl i miss you more
each passing day and i
i look outside, the skies
are still so gray
and i wish you were right here right now im
so in love with you
and as the clouds begin to move
ill see the sun shine down on you,
ill see the sun shine down on you
shine down on you
(ill see the sun shine down) on you
Oo..
