you know that part of your brain that hears a song and you are instantly swept away to a feeling or a memory? that happens to me more often than not when i listen to music. sometimes, i play a cd or a song just so i can have this very experience. when i'm feeling nostalgic or sappy, or sometimes when i want to cry....all it takes is hitting that "play" button.
i've recently realized that my life is a john mayer album.
there is something or someone to me in every song on "room for squares". more recently...my life has personified itself in "st. patricks day"....ironically my favorite john mayer song (even before my life took all these crazy turns)
it's only appropriate that i put the lyrics here now:
Here comes the cold
Break out the winter clothes
And find a love to call your own
You - enter you
Your cheeks a shade of pink
And the rest of you in powder blue
Who knows what will be
But I'll make you this guarantee
No way November
will see our goodbye
When it comes to December
it's obvious why
No one wants to be alone
at Christmas time
In the dark,
on the phone
You tell me the names
of your brothers
And your favorite colors
I'm learning you
And when it snows again
We'll take a walk outside
And search the sky
Like children do
No way November
will see our goodbye
When it comes to December
it's obvious why
No one wants to be alone
at Christmas time
And come January
we're frozen inside
Making new resolutions
a hundred times
February,
won't you be my valentine?
And we'll both be safe
'til St. Patrrick's Day
We should take a ride
tonight around the town
and look around at
all the beautiful houses
something in the way that
blue lights on a black night
can make you feel more
everybody, it seems to me,
just wants to be
just like you and me
No one wants to be alone
at Christmas time
Come January
we're frozen inside
Making new resolutions
a hundred times
February,
won't you be my valentine?
And if our always
is all that we gave
And we someday take that away
I'll be alright
if it was just
'til St. Patrick's Day
