This one is for Janice.
"The Reasons" by The Weakerthans
How I don't know how to sing,
I can barely play this thing,
But you never seem to mind,
And you tell me to fuck off,
When I need somebody to,
How you make me laugh so hard,
How whole years refuse to stay,
Where we told them to bad dog,
Locked up blindly in a word,
Or a misplaced souvenier,
How the past chews on your shoes,
And these memories lick my ear.
I know,
You might roll your eyes at this,
But I'm so,
Glad that you exist.
How we waste our prescious time,
Marching in the picket line,
That surround those striking hearts,
And the time is never now,
And we know who we should love,
But we're never certain how.
I know,
You might roll your eyes at this,
But I'm so,
Glad that you exist.
I know,
You might roll your eyes at this,
But I'm so,
Glad that you exist.
[solo]
I know,
You might roll your eyes at this,
But I'm so,
Glad that you exist.
This particular song, reminds me of you janice. It's got a similar kind of i dunno.. feel to it i guess. And i think it really kinda gets my point across.. the verses dont make too much sense, i realise, but then.. niether do i? The chorus really kinda hits it home though. Fact is i'm proud and honored to still be your friend even though we go for extended periods of time where we dont see each other. I've always thouroughly enjoyed spending time with you, just hangin' out and such. That, and we're both 7 freaks. ^_^. I know life kinda gets in the way, as it always does. But hey.. *shrugs*
