I can't remember if it's 5 or 6...
(only one person in the world knows what I'm talking about here. don't sweat it if you don't)
On to the point!
So, Sarah McLachlan's Possession is currently stuck in my head, and thus, I have made the point to listen to it a number of times as of late. In fact, it is playing as I type (I seem to be consistantly playing music lately, but this song, above others, strikes something ever so perfect right now.) The full lyrics are:
Listen as the wind blows
From across the great divide
Voices trapped in yearning
Memories trapped in time
The night is my companion
And solitude my guide
Would I spend forever here,
and not be satisfied?
And I would be the one
To hold you down
Kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
And after I
Wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes dear
Through this world I stumble
So many times betrayed
Trying to find an honest word
to find the truth enslaved
Oh, you speak to me in riddles
and you speak to me in rhymes
My body aches to breathe your breath
Your words keep me alive
And I would be the one
To hold you down
Kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
And after I
wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes, dear
Into this night I wander
It's morning that I dread
Another day of knowing of
The path I fear to tread
Oh, into the sea of waking dreams
I follow without pride
Cause nothing stands between us here
And I won't be denied
And I would be the one
To hold you down
Kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
And after I
Wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes dear
I'll hold you down
Kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
And after I
Wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes
I've loved this song ever since a then-good friend of mine put it on her MySpace page a year or so ago (something like that). The song is seriously just beautiful, musically, poetically and in sentiment. But now and in my current romantic situation, this song speaks to a sense of love and longing within myself as it never has before.
If you don't own this song... tisk tisk tisk... get it now. Hell, I'll give it to you.
Keep looking up, all.
