the new smiths
a couple of days ago, i was bitching how bad the american music scene has been the last, oh god... decade. anyway, i was surfing the web today and found this. obviously, they are not an american band since they are actually pretty good.
if you click on the music link, there are two songs available for your listening pleasure. i'm listening to "once upon a time" and it's pretty good. here are the lyrics.
Once upon a time you would travel
A hundred miles with a smile
Just to be by my side
Now you would not make
The journey across a room
And where we once watched sunsets
We now watch television in silence
Of all the things that I will miss
Oh, your shy laugh, your tender kiss
The thing that I will miss the most
Is you holding my hand
Although parting is such sour sorrow
I agree that we’ll be
Happier apart
For you no longer smile at me
As once upon a time you did
Where we gazed at the Milky Way
We now gaze at the floor in silence
Of all the things that I will miss
Oh, your shy laugh, your tender kiss
The thing that I will miss the most
Is you holding my hand
Wherever you go
Take my love with you
apparently, they are dubbed the new smiths. that's not such a bad thing.
now i'm listening to the second song, "a fearless heart." it's pretty mellow. i like it. here are the lyrics.
When we first met it felt like spring
After months of winter weather
I hoped our blossoming romance
Would brighten up my life forever
But faint heart never won fair lady
Or indeed fair gentleman
At the very first sign of trouble
You turned upon your heels and ran
It takes great strength and bravery
To show vulnerability
It takes a fearless heart indeed
Truly to fall in love
Just like the giant guarding his garden
You built a wall around your heart
A wall impossible to scale
Serving only to keep us apart
And now we are strangers again
I will no more gaze into your eyes
As affection so sorely neglected
Rests its weary head and dies
It takes great strength and bravery
To show vulnerability
It takes a fearless heart indeed
Truly to fall in love
