Thing Called Love

There was a time, there was a place
But there was fear inside
A witty line to save my face
A parachute of pride
To cross the line takes a tiny step
But will the spark cause the bridge to burn
My fear entwined with my regret
I beat a path for safe return

So here we are, we're just the same
And you will never know
My secret plan, how close we came
To share another road

And have I lost my only chance
To tell you how I feel inside?
Is it just me, I'd like to know
Or are we all just a little blind?

There's a thing called love that we all forget
And it's a wasted love that we all regret
You live your life just once
So don't forget, forget about a thing called LOVE

"Give me release... Let the waves of time and space surround me... Yeah... Cuz I need room to breathe... Let me float back to the place you found me. I'll be okay..."
 

I love it. I love this better:

I love it. This made my night, the whole set of account names.

I am permanently behind on PMs, it's not personal.
 

I'll see your "Thing Called Love" and raise ya this profound set of lyrics:

"Love stinks....yeah, yeah (love stinks) Love stinks....yeah, yeah (love stinks)"

Sounds like you're confusing love for oxytocin...they should write a song about that.

See: Third Eye Blind - Semi-Charmed Life

Although it's about crystal meth and maybe a tad bittersweet.

This to all my hatin' folks seeing me getting guac right now..
 

I'm hesitant to admit this, but I've listened to some Third Eye Blind lately. I love Never Let You Go.

Ahh man! Guess I'm late to the party here...

Going to be spinning at Webster Hall on Saturday, come say hi and get your dance on!
