Certain Songs

I would HOPE that if some girl ever had this sort of affect on me I would have the guts to CALL her! C'mon man...go for it...life is too short, and your bad poetry('your laugh echoes through my soul') is getting you nowhere but my missed connections of the day dedication...and that is no place to be!

You still haunt my dreams...

I miss you... so badly. Your laugh echos through my soul, your smile shines the light at the end of the tunnel and of course.. the way you taste. Where are you? I know nice guys never finish first, but I will always be loyal to you, even if I cannot have you. You deserve the best and sadly, that may not be me. The years are flying by, where has the time gone? How is it that you are still haunting my dreams? I love you.

I think I just picked this post as an excuse to post one of my favorite all time songs...multiple versions even:

Everly Brothers - 'All I Have To Do Is Dream'

REM - 'Dream(All I Have To Do)

Linda Ronstadt - 'All I Have To Do Is Dream'

I decided to change the 'Songs That Never Get Old' posts into these...just because 'Songs In The Key Of Life' will look SO much better on the t-shirts and bumper stickers once I get the chance to sell out!

This song is, in my humble opinion, one of the finest pop songs ever written. I have heard probably 15 version of it and liked almost all of them. FUN FACT: This is the only song in my drunken karaoke repertoire that has a female vocalist...and sometimes I am TOO drunk and forget to change the song to a guy's perspective, which can be a problem depending on the neighborhood I am in, but I digress...



You and I travel to the beat of a different drum
Oh can't you tell by the way I run
Every time you make eyes at me
Wo-oh

You cry and moan and say it will work out
But honey child I've got my doubts
You can't see the forest for the trees

Oh don't get me wrong
It's not that I knock it
It's just that I am not in the market
For a boy who wants to love only me

Yes, and I ain't saying you ain't pretty
All I'm saying is I'm not ready
For any person place or thing
To try and pull the reins in on me

So good-bye I'll be leaving
I see no sense in this crying and grieving
We'll both live a lot longer
If you live without me

Oh don't get me wrong
It's not that I knock it
It's just that I am not in the market
For a boy who wants to love only me

Yes, and I ain't saying you ain't pretty
All I'm saying is I'm not ready
For any person place or thing
To try and pull the reins in on me

So good-bye I'll be leaving
I see no sense in this crying and grieving
We'll both live a lot longer
If you live without me
