Pictures of you



Today as my ipod was on shuffle, a Cure song came on. I've been a hardcore Cure fan since I was in middle school...so I was excited to sing with it. It wasn't until I started to sing that the words hit me. Not the whole song...but some of the lyrics reminded me of my current feelings.

Pictures of you ~ The Cure



i've been looking so long at these pictures of you

that i almost believe that they're real

i've been living so long with my pictures of you

that i almost believe that the pictures are all i can feel

.......

Looking So long at these pictures of you

but i never hold on to your heart

looking so long for the words to be true

but always just breaking apart

my pictures of you




there was nothing in the world that i ever wanted more

than to feel you deep in my heart

there was nothing in the world that i ever wanted more

than to never feel the breaking apart all

my pictures of you

(totally crying right now.) it's so stinking true. i haven't heard that song in so long. i consider more of the cure songs 'sad' but damn, this one takes the cake by far.

ps - what other music do you like? i think me and you could be real chums ya know!?

I'm pretty eclectic really. I listen to everything from old school punk like Fear to the soothing sounds of The Innocence Mission. My favs right now are Over the Rhine, Ben Folds, some local folk artists, Julie and Buddy Miller, Sufjan Stevens and of course I never stop listening to The Cure, Depeche Mode, Natalie Merchant, U2...what are your favs?
