Song: Book Of Love Lyrics

The book of love is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts and figures
and instructions for dancing

But I
I love it when you read to me
And you
You can read me anything

The book of love has music in it
In fact that's where music comes from
Some of it is just transcendental
Some of it is just really dumb

But I
I love it when you sing to me
And you
You can sing me anything

The book of love is long and boring
And written very long ago
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
And things we're all too young to know

But I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings

And I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
And I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
You ought to give me wedding rings

How did I come to love this song so much? It always brings me back to a time I think I'll always remember. It feels like it's just yesterday. So near, yet so far. So close....

Song: The Blower's Daughter

And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time

And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her skies

I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time

And so it is
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial

I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you...
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind...
My mind...my mind...
'Til I find somebody new

....yet so distant.

My wisdom tooth is so unwise.

My wisdom tooth is so unwise. ;(

Out of the soft bed of my gum.
A little tremor came unsung.
Little by little did it grow.
Hidden and humble till it showed.

Crooked

Oh… what pains it brought.
With it came scraps with evil thoughts
A cozy corner they’ve come to rest.
And I’ve been having to deal with this discomforting pests.

To the people in white coat I go
Back and forth. To and fro.
Perhaps I should just let them go!
But yet my feelings tell me no.

Spare my jaws this painful nightmare.
Spare me of this all.
Why is it my very wise tooth,
Turned out not wise at all?
