a song as balance - and for regina

[wytchcroft]

ok so, anger needs its balance and that would be love i guess (in short-hand terms) -
well, some people have been talking about marriage / relationships (and such) of late and by synchronous chance today i found an old, old song of mine (just a little thing) about the push and the pull of it all...
from back when that was the deal - and in a sense it's still true.

So, this is to weigh against my last post - and also goes out to regina and violet (who won't know) and to the one i wrote it for back then.


a bell:

i don't know you what the hell
there's nothing here that rings a bell

we could sleep together
sleep right through
i could sleep forever
next to you

we trade our smiles in the morning
long distance never fade
listen to the table tapping
look at all the traps we laid

we were so easy
easy to lose
giving each other the necessary
excuse

but i don't know and what the hell
it's up to us to ring that bell

we pull together sometimes
and we pull together sometimes
yes we do

Oh, my friend!!!
Thank you SO much for sharing this! I am glad I decided to check in before going to bed... ;)
Love certainly is a push and pull, a give and take, but, oh, so lovely, even if only for a moment...

"we could sleep together
sleep right through
i could sleep forever
next to you"

and I loved this, nic... I can picture you with your guitar, singing in a low soft voice... it's terribly romantic and sweet and melancholy too.

You seem a lovely fellow- and I am pleased to be your friend.
:)
