Pale Blue Eyes...

[sinderswirl]

So I've heard this song numerous times in the last month.  It's been on a completely Lou Reed themed new movie.  Totally random.  I've heard it on the radio, a fucking miracle since this is not that popular of a song, and especially not for current radio tunes!  I've also recently heard it on an older movie.  So anyway, I have a history with this song, and it with me.  It carries a lot of meaning and a lot of memories.  For a while I remember I kept hearing "Season of the Witch" all the time.  Now I keep hearing "Pale Blue Eyes".  What does it mean!??!  Maybe the secret is in the words...

Sometimes I feel so happy,
Sometimes I feel so sad.
Sometimes I feel so happy,
But mostly you just make me mad.
Baby, you just make me mad.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

Thought of you as my mountain top,
Thought of you as my peak.
Thought of you as everything,
I've had but couldn't keep.
I've had but couldn't keep.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

If I could make the world as pure and strange as what I see,
I'd put you in the mirror,
I put in front of me.
I put in front of me.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

Skip a life completely.
Stuff it in a cup.
She said, Money is like us in time,
It lies, but can't stand up.
Down for you is up."
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

It was good what we did yesterday.
And I'd do it once again.
The fact that you are married,
Only proves, you're my best friend.
But it's truly, truly a sin.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
