Songs that make me think of Blake

Blue Denim
- written by s. nicks, m. campbell

I saw him the other day
I saw him again...yesterday
I wonder if I'll ever see him again
He reminded me of Blue Denim

CHORUS:
Blue-gray eyes...they change with the color...
Change with the sun...they run with the sight
They change with the wind...but they're always bright
Bright eyes...Blue Denim
Bright eyes...Blue Denim

I knew him another way
I knew him another day
In some ways he'd forgotten me
In many ways he got to me
I turned away so he couldn't see
I turned away...it could never be
I never thought he could walk away
But I lost him again...yesterday

REPEAT CHORUS

Understanding me...understanding you
Is not an easy thing to do
Understanding me...and understanding you
Is not an easy thing to do

And I will never forget...
The last time I saw you
Like a photograph...so rare
Like a painting
No I will never forget...
The last time I saw you
Never to be...not you...not me
No...no...

REPEAT CHORUS

So I'm going away for a little while
To remember how to feel
And if I find the answer...
I promise you...I'll come back and get you
I'll come back and get you
I'll come back and get you

I remember listening to this song a lot before I left for California at the end of the Lake House days because it made me think of Blake...I played it for Finn and we had a long talk about Blake...at some point I guess I had hoped he would join me in California - he would have enjoyed it so much.

The other song that I have been listening to is a rock song, more angry and powerful, makes me think of Blake but also of my own struggles with depression...it's called "Live is Beautiful" by SixxAm - my parents will laugh because I was so crazy in love with Nikki Sixx as a teenager and he's baaaaaccckkk hehe....anyway, it's a great song, it reminds me of that moment right after the darkest hour of a depression when you finally come out of it...reprinting the lyrics doesn't do that song justice...but it's posted on Nikki Sixx's myspace page...http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=176408813

I have another whole blog to write - this is really just a side note because someday I can look back and remember what I was listening to and thinking about during this time...

Off to get T...

Love,
