Back

Back now....! :-)

Waiting for holidays.... :-)

Away

Got to go for my 'rural posting', from Tuesday, for a month.
Got to stay there because if not, the university can fail you.
Not sure if it's going to be any good; from all I've heard, half of the group does the cooking, and the other half does the doctor work. I'm not very good at cooking, so may have to opt for the latter.

I'm sure there'll be no way to get online from there, though. That's the idea when you say 'rural'. :-) Ah well... a month will pass quickly, and the rest after will be so much the sweeter... :-)

Til the next time... :-)

Now That It's Fallen Apart (9 & 10 / 2 / 8)

Verse:

I sit and muse for awhile
Remembering only the best
Laughter, love, a thousand smiles
Sweetness unmarred by regrets


Bridge:

And as the music box I bought you plays the song we shared
I’ll focus on the times you cared instead of what we never had
It matters not today and really there’s no reason to be sad……


Chorus:

‘Cos our love
It melts like the snow on the ground where I wrote your name
Nothing’s changed
And our dreams
They fade like the steam on the window where I traced our hearts
Now that it’s fallen apart / now that we’ve chosen to part

You Don't Have To Love Me Anymore (9/11/7)

Verse 1:

1. You don’t have to love me anymore
2. There’s nothing left we can restore / to wait here for / to cling on for
3. The castles we built in love and war
4. Crumble in the waves on the shore)


Prechorus 1:

Giving up isn’t always the loser’s part
Sometimes lovers need a new start
The pain you feel when you pull out that dart
Paves the way for a healing heart


Verse 2:

1. You don’t have to hold me anymore
2. I don’t want our love to be a chore
3. The dreams we shared, the fruit it bore …
4. Fragmented pieces on the shore / Crushed and scattered on the shore / Nothing left but debris on the shore / Desolate rubble on the shore / Scattered in the wind on the shore


Prechorus 2:

Giving up isn’t always the loser’s part
Sometimes lovers need a fresh start
There’ll come a time when you look for/can’t see the scar/hurt mark
When you find you’ve got a brand new heart


Variations on end ...

1. You don’t have to love me anymore
2. I don't want our love to be a chore
3. The castles we built in love and war
4. Crumble in the waves as nerves are rubbed raw / as old quarrels soar? /
Crumble in the dust as the waves of strife soar /
Crumble as old wounds are rubbed raw /
Crumble in the wind as the feuding waves roar

Nick 3rd Song (28/9/7 - 19/10/7)

Verse:

I sit here alone, pressing my heart, wishing it were made of stone
I lie here in bed, embracing the dark, praying that you’ll come home
And every day, takes you further away, and there’s nothing I can say


Chorus:

I don’t know where you go, when you turn away from me
I don’t know what you see, when you escape reality
I don’t know what i need to fulfill your fantasy
Is it such a misdeed, to want you here with me/ I don’t know what I should be to keep you here with me


(After chorus?):
All I know is that I love you, and I want to follow/be with you
I want to prove my love is true, I want to die for you


Bridge:
And I don’t understand why you leave
Gonna hold on til the end, gonna swallow my grief?
And I’ll be waiting, come what may
For your return, someday

Breaking My Heart / All Over Again (16, 25-9-7)

Verse 1:

Why do I let you hurt me time and time again
Why can’t I find a remedy to deal with this pain
Why is this love an ecstasy that ravages my brain
Why does my vivid memory keep driving me insane?


Chorus:

Do you know when you go you steal the magic from my soul…?
Can’t you see that it’s me who’s finally lost control…?
And as I cry, say goodbye, I wonder why I can’t get off this (train ?)
You’re breaking my heart all over again
(Or variant of last line “And as I cry, say goodbye, I wonder why I can never make you see…
You’re everything to me” – perhaps this will be neater)


Verse 2:

Why do I always fail to see the value of restraint
Why can’t I change reality – this time it’s gonna rain
Why must I suffer silently when only I/thoughts/shadows remain / blame remains
Why does my every melody end with a sad refrain


Bridge:
Sometimes I wish I’d never met you
Sometimes I wish I’d never loved you
I miss you – although I say I don’t need you
I miss you – although I say I don’t love you


Variants, perhaps for ending:
You’re taking my life, all over again.
Leaving me in the dark, all over again.
I’m falling apart, all over again.
You’re leaving me lost, all over again…


End:
You were everything to me.
Stop, stop the hurt…

…..
