We'll Never Make Another Memory

The saddest song in the saddest playlist I've ever made.

I don't get many things right the first time
In fact, I am told that a lot
Now I know all the wrong turns, the stumbles and falls
Brought me here

And where was I before the day
That I first saw your lovely face?
Now I see it everyday
And I know

That I am
I am
I am
The luckiest

What if I'd been born fifty years before you
In a house on a street where you lived?
Maybe I'd be outside as you passed on your bike
Would I know?

And in a white sea of eyes
I see one pair that I recognize
And I know

That I am
I am
I am
The luckiest

I love you more than I have ever found a way to say to you

Next door there's an old man who lived to his nineties
And one day passed away in his sleep
And his wife; she stayed for a couple of days
And passed away

I'm sorry, I know that's a strange way to tell you that I know we belong
That I know

That I am
I am
I am
The luckiest

I put it on while I was doing my makeup for work.  And this song came on.  I don't even truly like Ben Fold's voice but I can cry during this song.  It's the most beautiful torturous love song I know.  I made a cd for Roy from this playlist.  He loved this song especially.  We slept to it night after night and that son of a bitch held me..lol.  Sounds gross, huh? lol It was.  But I miss it today!

My uncle is in the hospital, I'm not sure I journaled this before.  He lives in California and he's the one I visit.  He is funny.  He's supposedly dying but when I called his room in the ICU he answered and said "They are putting a new engine in." lol They're reconnecting his pacemaker today.  This is a risk because his heart isn't in good shape.  But he didn't even sound sick when I was talking to him...well, he sounded like he had a little trouble breathing... :(  I just called his room but he's not there. Maybe he's in surgery now.

Work tonight. 8 to midnight.  I close with a fat kid who I cannot pass... his mother is a psycho customer too...she's the one who whispers and wears sun glasses inside and gets mad when I can't hear her.
