Molly Nilsson: "Hey Moon"

this one goes both ways
whether you do or not

...

i know it's been so long since we saw each other last
i'm sure we'll find some way to make the time pass

hey moon
it's just you and me tonight
everyone else is asleep

hey moon
if i was to fall, i won't fall so deep
though i doubt i'm gonna
you can wake me up if you wanna

and your pale round face
makes me feel at home in any place i happen to be
at a quarter past three

the moon chased the sun out of the sky
goodbye sun! the night's begun
the moon chased the sun out of the sky
goodbye sunshine! the night is mine

hey moon
it's just you and me tonight
everyone else is asleep

hey moon
if i was to fall, i won't fall so deep
though i doubt i'm gonna
you can wake me up if you wanna

i would hate for you to hang there all alone the whole night through

hey moon, my old friend
hey moon, the night is coming to an end
hey moon, come back soon

...

of recent, it's on the (-) side,
but it has it's (+) side moments…

(-) not being able to sleep
because i miss you being there,
i miss being there with you

no sleep, no goodnight kisses
and no morning squeezes

(+) talking to you on the phone
as i'm driving through vermont
asking you if you can see the moon,
and if it's full where you are

goodnight, i love you
you're beautiful and amazing
xoxoxo ^^^^^

take it how you will,
hopefully you've got someone
somewhere out there
who you can look at the moon with
over skype, on the phone, in a letter

letter… we should write more
of those these days

cheers to staying (+) sided, freelurvers

Noah and the Whale: "Love of an Orchestra (Nightwaves remix)"

FYI: Noah and the Whale video on top
Nightwaves pic on bottom

...

If you gotta run, run from hope

I know I'll never be lonely
I've got songs in my blood
I'm carrying all the love of an orchestra
gimme the love of an orchestra (x3)

So now in my deepest sorrow
there's no need for despair
I'm carrying all the love of an orchestra
gimme the love of an orchestra (x3)

(Choir)
If you gotta run, run from hope

...

reminds me of a crush i
mentioned earlier... while i'm not
sure he carries the love of an orchestra,
i do know he's not lonely when
he's got music and he told me
it was all he had time for. i tell my
friends not to expect to change anyone ever,
so i guess i should follow my own advice
and not chase boys who already told me
they aren't worth chasing.
couldn't help it though, i was/am smitten.

beyond personal rantings,
i am smitten with this song,
especially the video.
for the song writers and
music lovers, here's a love song
for you and for music.

(like the unplanned bettye lavette number in
"on free lurving...", shuffle decided it was
your song's turn to play over all 6,822 choices
in my library. and it sounds like a love song?)
