All My Loving – The Beatles
October 28, 2009
Close your eyes and I’ll kiss you,
Tomorrow I’ll miss you;
Remember I’ll always be true.
And then while I’m away,
I’ll write home every day,
And I’ll send all my loving to you.
I’ll pretend that I’m kissing
The lips I am missing
And hope that my dreams will come true.
And then while I’m away,
I’ll write home every day,
And I’ll send all my loving to you.
All my loving I will send to you.
All my loving, darling I’ll be true.
Close your eyes and I’ll kiss you,
Tomorrow I’ll miss you:
Remember I’ll always be true.
And then while I’m away,
I’ll write home every day,
And I’ll send all my loving to you
All my loving I will send to you.
All my loving darling I’ll be True.
All my loving, all my loving, ooh!
All my loving I will send to you

“To flee from the battlefield is an act of cowardice;
But to stand firm at waterloo is an act of folly”
The Pomegranate – Kahlil Gibran
September 12, 2009
Once when I was living in the heart of a pomegranate, I heard a seed saying, “Someday I shall become a tree, and the wind will sing in my branches, and the sun will dance on my leaves, and I shall be strong and beautiful through all the seasons.”
Then another seed spoke and said, “When I was as young as you, I too held such views; but now that I can weigh and measure things, I see that my hopes were vain.”
And a third seed spoke also, “I see in us nothing that promises so great a future.”
And a fourth said, “But what a mockery our life would be, without a greater future!”
Said a fifth, “Why dispute what we shall be, when we know not even what we are.”
But a sixth replied, “Whatever we are, that we shall continue to be.”
And a seventh said, “I have such a clear idea how everything will be, but I cannot put it into words.”
Then an eight spoke–and a ninth–and a tenth–and then many—until all were speaking, and I could distinguish nothing for the many voices.
And so I moved that very day into the heart of a quince, where the seeds are few and almost silent.
Nowhere Man!
September 10, 2009
He’s a real nowhere man,
Sitting in his Nowhere Land,
Making all his nowhere plans
For nobody.
Doesn’t have a point of view,
Knows not where he’s going to,
Isn’t he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere Man please listen,
You don’t know what you’re missing,
Nowhere Man, the world is at your command!
He’s as blind as he can be.
Just sees what he wants to see.
Nowhere Man can you see me at all?
Nowhere Man, don’t worry,
Take your time, don’t hurry,
Leave it all till somebody else
Lends you a hand!
Doesn’t have a point of view,
Knows not where he’s going to,
Isn’t he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere Man please listen,
You don’t know what you’re missing
Nowhere Man, the world is at your command!
He’s a real Nowhere Man,
Sitting in his Nowhere Land,
Making all his nowhere plans
For nobody!
Making all his nowhere plans
For nobody!
Making all his nowhere plans
For nobody!
Don’t Be My Kryptonite
August 20, 2009
Hey miss cocaine
You carry the charm
That deadens mine
You infested my calm
Well I can’t resist now
You know, now I’m a mere illusion
You know, you get me high
Just right!
Even before I sniff
I go weak on my knees
Trigger me as you please
And please seduce me to death
But never, never be my kryptonite
Yeah! Don’t be my kryptonite
Hey miss cocaine
You wear damn pricey tag
That retards me to a pawn
You excited my hell
Well I can’t pretend now
You know, now I’m a mere illusion
You know, you get me high
Just right!
Even before I sniff
I go weak on my knees
Trigger me as you please
And please seduce me to death
But never, never be my kryptonite
Yeah! Don’t be my kryptonite
