This song has a loonnnnnngggg history attached to it. I’m posting it here now as a reminder of such memorable stage of my life…
Midnight in Chelsea
The kids ’round here look just like sticks
They trade old licks with a beat up six
I just smile and catch the groove
Gothic girls all dress in black
Serious as heart attacks
It takes a little bit of getting used to
The old man with the whiskey stains
Lost the night forgot his name
His poor wife will sleep alone again
And it ain’t hard to understand
Why she’s holding on to her own hand
Chorus:
It’s midnight in Chelsea, midnight in Chelsea
No one’s asking me for favors
No one’s looking for a savior
They’re too busy saving me
(Repeat Chorus)
I’ve seen a lone,sloane ranger drive
seems her chauffeur took a dive
And sold her secrets to the sun
And later in a magazine
I finally figured what it means
To be a saint, not a queen
Two lustful lovers catch a spark
And chase their shadows in the dark
Someone’s getting off tonight
Of a big red bus that’s packed so tight
It disappears in a trail of light
Somewhere someone’s dreaming baby it’s all right…
Chorus:
It’s midnight in Chelsea, midnight in Chelsea
No one’s asking me for favors
No one’s looking for a savoir
They’re too busy saving me
Midnight in Chelsea, midnight in Chelsea
No one’s pinned the dreams on me
No one’s asking me to bleed
I’m the man I want to be
When Chelsea girls sing…
It’s morning when I go to sleep
In the distant dawn a church bell rings
Another day is coming on
A baby’s born, an old man dies
Somewhere young lovers kiss good-bye
I leave my soul and just move on
And wish that I was there to sing this song
Chorus:
It’s midnight in Chelsea, midnight in Chelsea
No one’s asking me for favors
No one’s looking for a savior
They’re too busy saving me
It’s midnight in Chelsea, midnight in Chelsea
No one’s pinned the dreams on me
No one’s asking me to bleed
I’m the man I want to be
The man I want to be,the man I want to be
Midnight in Chelsea

I have always been a straight forward kinda gal. I take the right routes to where I want to go. No shortcuts. But what if, after all the pain and agony of doing the right thing, you still fail? Does intentions matter? It does to me… Do we still continue trying for what we want in life? How do we know when to stop? Honestly, I feel that the stopping line is near…
Here’s Heart’s hit song. That lady got what she wants… I believe she knew exactly what she was doing. Most women won’t be able to fight that.
I envy her strength.

Jordin Sparks – Tattoo
Oh, oh, oh
No matter what you say about love I keep coming back for more Keep my hand in the fire Sooner or later, I’ll get what I’m asking for No matter what you say about life I learn every time I bleed That truth is a stranger Soul is in danger, I gotta let my spirit be free To admit that I’m wrong And then change my mind Sorry but I have to move on And leave you behind [Chorus] I can’t waste time so give it a moment I realize, nothing’s broken No need to worry ’bout everything I’ve done Live every second like it was my last one Don’t look back at a new direction I loved you once, needed protection You’re still a part of everything I do You’re on my heart just like a tattoo (Just like a tattoo, I’ll always have you I’ll always have you, I’ll always have you) I’m sick of playing all of these games It’s not about taking sides When I looked in the mirror, didn’t deliver It hurt enough to think that I could Stop, admit that I’m wrong And then change my mind Sorry but I gotta be strong And leave you behind [Chorus] (Just like a tattoo, I’ll always have you I’ll always have you) [Bridge] If I live every moment Won’t change any moment Still a part of me and you I will never regret you Still the memory of you Marks everything i do [Chorus x2] Just like a tattoo I’ll always have you
p/s This song is my favourite this week. So I’m posting it here for Valentine’s Day =)

I’m somehow drawn to this old song by David Gray today. Here it is….
This Year’s Love
This years love had better last Heaven knows it’s high time And I’ve been waiting on my own too long But when you hold me like you do It feels so right I start to forget How my heart gets torn When that hurt gets thrown Feeling like you can’t go on Turning circles when time again It cuts like a knife oh yeah If you love me got to know for sure Cos it takes something more this time Than sweet sweet lies Before I open up my arms and fall Losing all control Every dream inside my soul And when you kiss me On that midnight street Sweep me off my feet Singing ain’t this life so sweet This years love had better last This years love had better last So whose to worry If our hearts get torn When that hurt gets thrown Don’t you know this life goes on And won’t you kiss me On that midnight street Sweep me off my feet Singing ain’t this life so sweet This years love had better last This years love had better last This years love had better last This years love had better last
