Author's Note:
This is the list of songs that I listened to while I wrote "Sinking". I hope you can see how it tied in with what I was writing. Mostly though, I hope you enjoy my song selections. Thanks for being amazing readers. I should start posting the sequel soon. The same for my fluffy one-shot, look for it as part of my "That's How It Should Be" collection. Feel free to leave comments on the music, I'd LOVE to hear what you think.
Love,
Holly
1. Possiblity - Lykke Li
Know that when you leave
Know that when you leave
By blood and by mean
You walk like a thief
By blood and by mean
I fall when you leave
2. I've Grown Accustomed To His Face - Diana Krall
I've grown accustomed to his face
He almost makes the day begin
I've grown accustomed to the tune he whistles night and noon
His smiles, his frowns
His ups, his downs are second nature to me now
Like breathing out and breathing in
I was serenely independent and content before we met
Surely I can be that way again and yet
I've grown accustomed to his looks
Accustomed to his voice
Accustomed to his face
3. Without You - the Cranberries
And in the night, I could be helpless
I could be lonely sleeping without you
And in the day, everything's complex
There's nothing simple when I'm not around you
4. I Miss You - Blink 182
Like indecision to call you
And hear your voice of treason
Will you come home and stop this pain tonight?
5. Without You - Nina Simone
I've forgotten you just like I said I would
Of course I have
Well maybe except when I hear your name
Or someone's laugh that's just the same
I've forgotten you just like I should
6. Solitaire - the Carpenters
A little hope goes up in smoke
Just how it goes, goes without saying
There was a man, a lonely man
Who would command the hand he's playing
7. In My Place - Coldplay
And I was lost, I was lost
Crossed lines that I shouldn't have crossed
I was lost, oh yeah
8. At This Moment - Billy Vera
What do you think I would give at this moment?
If you stay, I'd subtract 20 years from my life
And I'd fall down on my knees
Kiss the ground you walk on
If I could just hold you again
9. In the Wee Small Hours of the Morning - Carly Simon
When your lonely heart has learned it's lesson
You'd be his if only he'd call
In the wee small hours of the morning
That's the time you miss him most of all
10. Come Back To Me - David Cook
Take your time, I won't go anywhere
Picture you with the wind in your hair
I'll keep your things right where you left them
I'll be here for you
11. I Miss You (acoustic) - Incubus
You have only been gone 10 days
But already I'm wasting away
I know I'll see you again
But I need you to know that I care
And I miss you. . .
12. Here Without You - 3 Doors Down
I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you and I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby, but you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight it's only you and me
13. In Front Of You - the Quiet Kind
Why can't you ever see what's in front of you?
Why can't you ever see what's in front of you?
Tell me what Sarah said
Did she swallow it?
Bonus Tracks:
14. Superstar - Sonic Youth
Loneliness is such a sad affair
And I can hardly wait to be with you again
What to say to make you come again
Come back to me again
And play your sad guitar
15. Coming Home - Gwyneth Paltrow
It's a four letter word
A place you go to heal your hurt
It's an altar, it's a shelter
One place you're always welcome
16. Hold Me Now - Duncan Sheik (or the Thompson Twins)
Look at our life now
It's tattered and torn
We fuss and we fight and delight in the tears we cry until dawn
Oh, hold me now
Oh you are my heart
Stay with me
Let loving start
Let loving start
17. Adiago For Strings - Samuel Barber
