Hey There Delilah~ Plain White T's
Hey there Delilah,
What’s it like in New York City?
I’m a thousand miles away,
But girl tonight you look so pretty,
Yes you do,
Time Square can’t shine as bright as you,
I swear it’s true.
Hey there Delilah,
Don’t you worry about the distance,
I’m right there if you get lonely,
Give this song another listen,
Close your eyes,
Listen to my voice it’s my disguise,
I’m by your side.
Oh it’s what you do to me,
Oh it’s what you do to me,
Oh it’s what you do to me,
Oh it’s what you do to me,
What you do to me.
Hey there Delilah,
I know times are getting hard,
But just believe me girl some day,
I'll pay the bills with this guitar,
We'll have it good,
We'll have the life we knew we would,
My word is good.
Hey there Delilah,
I’ve got so much left to say,
If every simple song I wrote to you,
Would take your breath away,
I’d write it all,
Even more in love with me you’d fall,
We’d have it all.
Oh it’s what you do to me,
Oh it’s what you do to me,
Oh it’s what you do to me,
Oh it’s what you do to me.
A thousand miles seems pretty far,
But they’ve got planes and trains and cars,
I’d walk to you if I had no other way,
Our friends would all make fun of us,
And we'll just laugh along because,
We know that none of them have felt this way,
Delilah I can promise you,
That by the time that we get through,
The world will never ever be the same,
And you’re to blame.
Hey there Delilah you be good,
And don’t you miss me,
Two more years and you’ll be done with school,
And I'll be making history,
Like I do,
You’ll know it's all because of you,
We can do whatever we want to,
Hey there Delilah here's to you,
This one’s for you.
Oh it’s what you do to me,
Oh it’s what you do to me,
Oh it’s what you do to me,
Oh it’s what you do to me,
What you do to me.

| Monday. 6.18.07 23:10:47(in spain) or 5:10:47 pm so ive been thinking....
when i came upon a new environment..for awhile...or indefinitely...i saw each time as a chance to become someone new, someone 'cooler'. i moved a couple times between elementary school years..moved to a new town for middle school....moved to the other side of the country for high school.. and each time, i thought 'this years gonna be different, im gonna be smarter, more outgoing, more likeable.' i went away for college to slippery rock...i think this is when i beganto slow down a little bit. i wanted things to stay more the same. as i type this...im sitting in spain, thinking....im on the verge of a plateu in my life. a plateu which i need to set up where i keep the people i love close...and my life can just play itself out like cruise control. no more crazy turns, (maybe when i become a dad), just ...smooth sailing. haha...what an optimistic point of view..but hey...im an optimist.
going off to spain..i was set in a foreign country with nobody but a handful of complete strangers. so i guess i kinda had the opportunity to be whoever i wanted for these folks....but in retrospect, i didnt really try hard to be any 'cooler' or anything like that. i was just myself. i absorbed as much as i could in classes and had good times with these fellow travellers. as a group we've developed a decently tight knit group..but i dont think ive treated anyone any differently than from the start. i havent shifted myself to appease or impress anyone. i keep things cool, make sure everyones having a good time, sacrifice my personal comfort for the small needs of everyone else...to me, it sounds like what i do at home, for the gang in maryland. a quote came to my mind...originating from casey embert...it goes like something along the lines of...'you're someone who would do anything for anyone.' meghan composed an awesome poster comprised of good times and praise from awesome people, and that was one of the many jewels that i took to heart. here i've given up my sheets and pillow for people to sleep over comfortably, paid for a few meals at restaurants, carried grocery bags, mopped floors of melting freezers, washed dishes, left parties earlier so one person wouldnt have to go home alone, and i've slightly been a human dictionary for people('keith whats that mean? ')...
so im thinking....
1 i am going to miss my group here.
2 im feeling good about the next couple years of possible future.
3 im happy. mmm Yes, I know what you mean. I've transferred before myself--in elementary. Then, you think the same thing whenever the school year starts and before jr.h./h.s./college, etc... » Silver-dot- on 2007-06-18 10:41:33 did you just use the word "gosh" in a sentence!? I will fly out there, kick you in the groin, and then say "worth it."...ha..hope you are having fun » Rip-Tide-Prophecy on 2007-06-19 12:47:21 you gave up your sheets and pillow?! you mopped up a floor?! guess there's stories I haven't heard eh. » xXxshegzxXx on 2007-06-20 06:18:40 whoop!
when you come back home, look out the window, 'cause i'll be running along the tarmac, victory flexing until the plane stops.
cheers,

the number is lesser in value..and easier to swallow
~'would you like something to drink'
if your stomach feels weak, then my work here is done
~'the words "best friend" become redefined'
if theres no one beside you when your soul embarks, i'll follow you into the dark
~'i'll follow you into the dark'
i'll be floating out at sea, waiting for periscopes to spot my warm body
~'no ace, just you'
this is the part where i'll admit i'm getting what i deserve
~'lost and found'
lets sleep tonight on a bed of nails, so that every other night doesn't seem so painful after all
~'beter than sex'
if it were up to me, you're gone, i've been dying to get it into you somehow
~'histrionics'
hours pass, and she still counts the minutes that i am not there, i swear i didn't mean for it to feel like this
~'bruised'
wanna fuck up my life?-i'll let you.
~'knotes'
this is the rhythm i was signing to the beat of my feat as i walked away
~'i fought the broad (and the broad won)'
ur stomach's filled up but ur starved for conversation
~'soco amaretto lime'
if i could, i'd only want to make you smile
~'make you smile'
the past is only the future with the lights on
~'baby, come on'
morning always comes too quick when you're around..
~'still breathing'
i beg not to escape permeating my pores, whetting my appetite for more
~'amanda's poem about unicorns '
ur stomach's filled up but ur starved for conversation
~'soco amaretto lime'
love me gently with a chainsaw
~'tie her down'
smiles and her laughter, its the only thing that ive been waiting for
~'emily'
so many high points on this last leg, i cant wait to recount them- it seems like nothings happened until ive shared them with you
~'shirts and gloves'
ur lips, ur eyelashes- ur skin, these are the parts of ur body that cause my comatose to begin
~'all hail the heartbreaker'
lets start out-by starting over... ~'lovers and liars'
