Saw you last night.

for lauren panzica...

words cannot begin to express what we lost on June 30, 2009.

rest in peace. I love you. and I will always miss you. ♥

♥

from the back of your big brown eyes
I knew you'd be gone as soon as you could
and I hoped you would
we could see that you weren't yourself
and the lines on your face did tell
it's just as well
you'd never be yourself again

saw you last night
dance by the light of the moon
stars in your eyes
free from the life that you knew

you're the magic that holds the sky up from the ground
you're the breath that blows these cool winds 'round
trading places with an angel now
saw you last night
dance by the light of the moon
stars in your eyes
free from the life that you knew
saw you last night
stars in your eyes
smiled in my room

"Magic" - Ben Folds Five

So much he can say.

There used to be a graying tower alone on the sea.

You became the light on the dark side of me.

Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill.

But did you know,

That when it snows,

My eyes become large and

The light that you shine can be seen.

Baby,

I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.

Ooh,

The more I get of you,

The stranger it feels, yeah.

And now that your rose is in bloom.

A light hits the gloom on the gray.

There is so much a man can tell you,

So much he can say.

You remain,

My power, my pleasure, my pain, baby

To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny.

Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby?

But did you know,

That when it snows,

My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen.

Baby,

I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.

Ooh, the more I get of you

The stranger it feels, yeah

Now that your rose is in bloom.

A light hits the gloom on the gray,

I've been kissed by a rose on the gray,

I've been kissed by a rose

I've been kissed by a rose on the gray,

...And if I should fall along the way

I've been kissed by a rose

...been kissed by a rose on the gray.

There is so much a man can tell you,

So much he can say.

You remain

My power, my pleasure, my pain.

To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny, yeah

Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby.

But did you know,

That when it snows,

My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen.

Baby,

I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.

Ooh, the more I get of you

The stranger it feels, yeah

Now that your rose is in bloom,

A light hits the gloom on the gray.

Yes I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray

Ooh, the more I get of you

The stranger it feels, yeah

And now that your rose is in bloom

A light hits the gloom on the gray

Now that your rose is in bloom,

A light hits the gloom on the gray.

"Kiss From A Rose" - Seal

Silently preparing to love on you.

When you light those candles
Up there on that mantle, setting the mood
Well, I just lie there staring
Silently preparing to love on you
Well, I can feel the heat from across the room
Ain't it wild what a little flame can make you wanna do
I melt every time you look at me that way
It never fails, anytime, any place
This burn in me is the coolest thing I've ever felt
I melt
Don't know how you do it
I love the way I lose it, every time
What's even better
Is knowing that forever you're all mine
The closer you get, the more my body aches
One little stare from you is all it takes
I melt every time you look at me that way
It never fails, anytime, any place
This burn in me is the coolest thing I've ever felt
I melt
I melt every time you look at me that way
It never fails, anytime, any place
This burn in me is the coolest thing I've ever felt
I melt
Every time you look at me that way
I melt, I melt

"Melt" - Rascal Flatts

Swear it's true.

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
Times 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
Someday 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 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.

"Hey There Delilah" - Plain White T's

Swinging on the playground.

Your best friend becomes your enemy...
Lollipops turn into cigarettes...
The innocent ones turn into sluts...
Homework goes in the trash...
Mobile phones are being used in class...
Detention becomes suspension...
Soda becomes vodka...
Undies turn into G-strings...
Kisses turn into sex...
Remember when high meant swinging on the playground?
When protection meant wearing a helmet?
When the worst thing you could get from boys was cooties?
Dad's shoulders were the highest place on Earth?
And Mom was your hero?
Your worst enemies were your siblings...
Race issues were about who ran the fastest...
War was only a card game...
The only drug you knew was cough medicine...
Wearing a skirt didn't make you a slut...
The only things that hurt you were skinned knees...
And goodbyes only meant until tomorrow...
And we couldn't wait to grow up... ♥

Saving grace.

Remember those walls I built?
Well, baby they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make a sound
I found a way to let you in
But, I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now
It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm taking
I ain't never gonna shut you out!
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo
I can see your halo
I can feel your halo
I can see your halo
Halo, ooh ooh...
Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light
I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't forget
To pull me back to the ground again
It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm taking
I'm never gonna shut you out!
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
I pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo
I can see your halo
I can feel your halo
I can see your halo
Halo, ooh ooh...
I can feel your halo
I can see your halo
I can feel your halo
I can see your halo
Halo, ooh ooh...
Halo, ooh ooh...
Halo, ooh ooh, oh...
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
I pray it won't fade away
I can feel your halo
I can see your halo
I can feel your halo
I can see your halo
Halo, ooh oh...
I can feel your halo
I can see your halo
I can feel your halo
I can see your halo
Halo, ooh oh...

"Halo" - Beyonce

Standin' just a little too close to me.

Ya lookin' just a little too hard at me
Standin' just a little too close to me
Ya sayin' not quite enough to me
Ya sippin' just a little too slow for me
No doubt ya playin' real cool homie
Got me thinkin' what is it you do for me
Trippin' (trippin') a little more than I should be
So let ya self go and get right with me
I'm about to sign you up, we can get right
Before the night is up, we can get
get riiiiiiiight get riiiiiiight, we can get right
I'm about to fill your cup, we can get right
Before the night is up, we can get riiiiiiight toniiiiiiight, we can get right
Do you want more?
Ya lips talkin' bout I play too much
Can't a woman take advantage of what she wants
My hips movin' oh so slow
Bar tab lookin like a car note
All I need is you here right by my side
Take whatever ya want, baby let's ride
And whatever ya won't do let me decide.
Just put ya name on the dotted line
I'm about to sign you up, we can get right
Before the night is up, we can get
get riiiiiiiight get riiiiiiight, we can get right.
I'm about to fill your cup, we can get right
Before the night is up, we can get riiiiiiight toniiiiiiight, we can get right
So much we've got to say
But so little time
And if tonight ain't long enough
Don't leave love behind (Don't leave love behind)
Take my hand, I'll show you why
I'm about to sign you up, we can get right
Before the night is up, we can get riiiiiiight get riiiiiiight, we can get right.
I'm about to fill your cup, we can get right
Before the night is up, we can get riiiiiiight toniiiiiiight, we can get right

"Get Right" - Jennifer Lopez

Shore out from this ocean.

Lie to me
When everything is wrong you make me
Try to see
When all I see is all I need
To believe
The only thing we need is this love
Don’t know what to say
When all your words don’t make everything okay
Lie to me
When everything is wrong you make me
Try to see
When the only truth is what I’m feeling
I believe
All that’s wrong we’ll come to heal it
Come inside and if you don’t feel the same
Then lie to me
Life is sweet
Taste it from your lips as I lie
In between
Your arms keep me from drowning
Don’t you see
There’s no shore out from this ocean
Don’t know what to say
When all your words don’t make everything okay
Lie to me
When everything is wrong you make me
Try to see
When the only truth is all I’m feeling
I believe
The future holds no bounds for this love
Come inside and if you don’t feel the same
Then lie to me
Your soul reaches out to me
Your soul wakes me where I sleep
Your soul bleeds through every place and time
Your soul bleeds right into mine
Lie to me
When everything is wrong you make me
Try to see
But all I need is all I’m feeling
I believe
The future holds no bounds for this love
Come inside and if you don’t feel the same
Then lie...
Lie to me
When everything is wrong you make me
Try to see
But the only truth is all I’m feeling
I believe
The future holds no bounds for this love
Come inside and if you don’t feel the same
Then lie to me
