The Blower's Daughter

The earth is about to complete its nth revolution around the sun. Well, I'm just trying to say in other words that year 2005 is about to end. Fortunately we were given this 10-day hiatus ('forced' hiatus, but I like it) to enjoy the holidays, to eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we start working our asses off again. One of those ten days I spent watching the movie Closer (Roberts, Law, Portman, and Owen) and covering the books/novels that I received this Christmas. So, that's all. I'll end this blog entry with the lyrics of the song from Closer.

The Blower's Daughter
Damien Rice

And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky

I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial

I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

Oooohh
Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind
My mind... my mind...
'Til I find somebody new
