Love Hurts

Love Hurts
Nazareth

Love hurts, love scars,
Love wounds, and marks,
Any heart, not tough,
Or strong, enough
To take a lot of pain,
Take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud
Holds a lot of rain
Love hurts, ooh ooh love hurts

Im young, I know,
But even so
I know a thing, or two
I learned, from you
I really learned a lot,
Really learned a lot
Love is like a flame
It burns you when its hot
Love hurts, ooh ooh love hurts

Some fools think of happiness
Blissfulness, togetherness
Some fools fool themselves I guess
Theyre not foolin me

I know it isnt true,
I know it isnt true
Love is just a lie,
Made to make you blue
Love hurts, ooh,ooh love hurts
Ooh,ooh love hurts

[guitar solo]

I know it isnt true,
I know it isnt true
Love is just a lie,
Made to make you blue
Love hurts, ooh ooh love hurts
Ooh ooh love hurts
Ooh ooh...

Just once. Is that too much too ask? :(

Just Once
James Ingram

I did my best
But I guess my best wasn't good enough
'Cause here we are back where we were before
Seems nothing ever changes
We're back to being strangers
Wondering if we oughta stay
Or head on out the door

Just once can't we figure out what we keep doing wrong
Why we never last for very long
What are we doing wrong
Just once can't we find a way to finally make it right
Make the magic last for more than just one night
If we could just get to it
I know we could break through it

I gave my all
But I think my all may have been too much
'Cause Lord knows we're not getting anywhere
Seems we're always blowing whatever we got going
And seems at times with all we've got
We haven't got a prayer
Just once can't we figure out what we keep doing wrong
Why the goodtimes never last for very long
Seems we're always blowing
Whatever we got going

Just once can't we find a way to finally make it right
Make the magic last for more than just one night
If we could just get to it
I know we could break through it

Just once I want to understand
Why it always come back to good-bye
Why can't we get ourselves in hand
And admit to one another
That we're no good with out the other
Take the best and make it better
Find a way to stay together

Just once can't we find a way to finally make it right
Make the magic last for more than just one night
I know we can break through it
If we could just get to it

Just once
If we could get to it

Just Once...

All Four Seasons In One Day

All Four Seasons
Sting
(from the album Mercury Falling)

With her smile as sweet as a warm wind in summer
She's got me flying like a bird in a bright June sky
And then just when she thinks that I've got her number
Brings me down to the ground with her wintry eye
That's my baby
She can be all four seasons in one day

And when the nighttime comes with no interference
To our warm summer love with all its charms
But like a thoroughbred horse she can turn on a sixpence
And I find that I'm back in Mistress Winter's arms
That's my baby
She can be all four seasons in one day

How will I know?
How can I tell?
Which side of the bed she takes when the day begins
She can be kind
She can be cruel
She's got me guessing like a game show fool

She can change her mind like she changes her sweaters
From one minute to the next it's hard to tell
She blows hot and cold just like stormy weather
She's my gift from the Lord or a fiend from hell
That's my baby
She can be all four seasons in one day

Watching the weatherman's been no good at all
Winter, spring, summer, I'm bound for a fall
There are no long term predictions for my baby
She can be all four seasons in one day

How will I know?
How can I tell?
Which side of the bed she takes when the day begins
She can be kind
She can be cruel
She's got me guessing like a game show fool

If it's a sunny day I take my umbrella
Just in case the raindrops start to fall
You could say that I'm just a cautious fellow
I don't want to be caught in a sudden squall
That's my baby
She can be all four seasons in one day
That's my baby
She can be all four seasons in one day

A quick update

So, it's been a while. If you remember, I mentioned something unexpected, etc. etc. might be happening in my life. Well, like all things, it's come and gone. Don't ask.

I've been keeping myself busy. Got a new band now. (Used to have another a while ago, but we stopped).

Got a new job. Will be starting middle of next month. Finally going to work in a proper game development company, which is my lifelong dream. Yay! :)

Met someone. Unfortunately, like every other one I've met so far, it's complicated. In fact, this is possibly the most complicated I've met yet. Unsure exactly how things are gonna turn out, but we'll see. I'm hopeful, but it's gonna take a while.

Why, oh why do I always attract women with a lot of baggage?

In any case, like I said, we'll see what happens. I'm less inclined to rush into things nowadays, and I've built up a certain immunity to getting hurt (or so I like to tell myself).

Sigh...

Why does my life always have to be so friggin' complicated eh?

Anyway, enough wallowing. I'll post again soon. :)

HOORAY!!!

A Feast For Crows is finally done! Well, sort of.

Now all that's left is for me to go and get the stuff from my favourite bookstore. :) Or if you're reading this and wondering what to get me for Christmas, A Feast For Crows and (hopefully it's done by then) A Dance With Dragons are pretty high on my Christmas wish list. Though I probably can't wait that long. Heh. :P

But now I realize that since it's been so long, I'll probably want to re-read everything from the beginning to reacquaint myself with the lovely characters from the series.

(George is saying that he'll probably need seven(!) books to finish the story now. Hopefully it wouldn't take him as long to finish the next few books).

Unexpected Nugget of Wisdom

Me: "Wah... How come your smile so big?"

Some Guy: "Smile need to work, don't smile also need to work. Then smile, lah! Don't stress yourself, be happy!"

Heh.
