so elyse called me today. we talked for over an hour. it was nice. i hadn't talked to her in a long time... it was weird.
while i was talking to her i was listening to the ataris just by coincidence. elyse and i discovered the ataris together in junior high, some random show, and we fell in love with them. i used to listen to them alot and it would make the think about her, and how much i cared about her, it would make me happy. they eventually just reminded me of how much i wanted to be with her and could not. the ataris became my sad sorta depressing music.
i applied the ataris to dave as well. there was a song about dreaming of moving to california and never spending a night alone again. they made me really happy when i would listen to it. listening to them made me sad, for a long time. since we broke up basically. today though, i was listening to it, and i realized it made me happy.
that's when i realized, i can have that. i can have that dream. obviously, i would love to have that dream with dave, and i don't plan on pursing anything else right now. but things work out the way they are meant to. and if dave and i work out, then it's meant to be. and if it doesn't that means there's something better out there for me.
now that's something to look forward to.
*note, some of the lyrics have been changed to suite my life. i.e. what said "girl" is now "boy" and what was "cats" is now "dogs."
i make the changes because that's how i sing it.
A star up in the sky goes slowly passing by,
The lights below...they spell out your name.
You're comfort on my mind and you're with me all the time.
And lots of feelings that I can't explain.
I won't spend another night alone.
Out of every boy I meet, no other can compete
I'd ditch 'em all for a night with you.
I know you don't believe you mean this much to me
But I promise you that you do.
If I had one wish this is what it would be...
I'd ask you to spend all your time here with me,
And we'd be together forever.
We'd buy a small house in south central L.A.
Raise lots of kids then we'd both join a gang (not quite what i want to happen. but its the song)
Just as long as we're together.
The things you make me wanna do
I'd rob a quik-e-mart for you
I'd go to the pound and let all the dogs go free
Just as long as you'd be with me.
I won't spend another night alone.
