Coffee Stain
So I'm bored. And for fun I thought I'd post the lyrics to one of the previously stated favourite songs of the moment. I'm usually not too into lyrics. I don't think they hold up on their own with out the music, but this song is different. The lyrics are simple, but lovely and can totally hold their own....
There’s a coffee stain around your eye
And lines that I don’t recognize
Everything changed from being okay
The night that you came home so late
I knew by the time on the stove
That you were no longer mine alone
I guess we’re just out on loan
And everybody is only their own
Oh I loved you
And I guess I still do
Everything was going so good
I thought something bad might happen
And then it did
If you know the difference between bad and good
Thought that I’d know
I cross my toes and that’s how it goes
Maybe I’m a fatalist
To let it all go at this
Like some balloon I’ll probably miss
Lost in a tree top
But there’s a coffee stain around your eye
And lines that I don’t recognize
Everything changed from being okay
The night you came home so late
Oh I loved you
And I guess I still do
Everything was going so good
I thought something bad might happen
And then it did
If you know the difference between bad and good
Thought that I’d know
I cross my toes and that’s how it goes
- Sarah Harmer
"-dear Eponine, the things you know
you wouldn't find in books like these
-I like the way you wear your hair
-I like the way you always tease
-little he knows, little he sees"
Is this correct? I don't know, because the in-between bits aren't in the recordings. Aargh.
"Please do not send me out alone
Not in the darkness on my own"
And the intro to "A Little Fall of Rain"... 'oh god, it's everywhere'...sigh. And what else... the first scene with the Bishop...but it's mostly Eponine and Marius' lines that I can remember, that I miss.
You will have to relive it for me in minutest detail.
