Music Monday- Leave the Pieces (On Tuesday)

My friend has been going through a rough time. She is the strongest person I know... dealing with what she's been dealing with for the last 18 months.

She even has a bulldog on her poodle skirt.

Love you Teenie.

You're not sure that you love me
But you're not sure enough to let me go
Baby it ain't fair, you know
To just keep me hanging 'round

You say you don't want to hurt me
Don't want to see my tears
So why are you still standing here
Just watching me drown?

And it's alright, yeah I'll be fine
Don't worry about this heart of mine
Just take your love and hit the road

There's nothing you can do or say
You're gonna break my heart anyway
So just leave the pieces when you go

Now you can drag out the heartache
Baby you can make it quick
Really get it over with
And just let me move on

Don't concern yourself
With this mess you left for me
I can clean it up, you see
Just as long as you're gone

And it's alright, yeah I'll be fine
Don't worry about this heart of mine
Just take your love and hit the road

There's nothing you can do or say
You're gonna break my heart anyway
So just leave the pieces when you go

You're not making up your mind
It's killing me and wasting time
I need so much more than that
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

And it's alright, yeah I'll be fine
Don't worry about this heart of mine
Just take your love and hit the road

There's nothing you can do or say
You're gonna break my heart anyway
So just leave the pieces when you go
Leave the pieces when you go
Oh yeah, leave the pieces when you go

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah
Leave the pieces when you go

Random Tuesday Thoughts

  • Today my cat had an "event" (which I won't describe in detail here, but let's just say "stuff" came out of both ends) 15 minutes before I was to leave to be at zero hour photography at school. Sometimes I wish I didn't have carpet anywhere in my house.
  • Dear Hitchhiking Lady- Probably flipping people off who purposely don't give you a ride because you are stumbling along a two lane road at 7:45 in the morning looking  like you are strung out on heroin isn't going to get you a ride from anyone at all. Just sayin'.
  • Why is it that guys feel the need to pee into any type of container they can find in their car WHILE DRIVING and then throw said container out of the window of their car for the rest of the population to enjoy passing on their way to work? Have you ever heard of McDonald's? You don't even have to buy anything to use THE RESTROOM!
  • Our god daughter graduated from college last weekend. Man. There's nothing like a college graduation to make you feel REALLY old.
  • We're almost through with our state testing. Thank goodness we only have 1 test per subject instead of the 2 or 3 per subject. This year we only have 3 days of testing instead of the 7 last year.
  • What is with the weather around here? I'm SO sick of the rain. I think I might be growing webbed feet.
  • My training for the Rock and Roll half marathon is going OK... I walk/ran 6 miles yesterday. It's going to be tough. Luckily the race isn't until June 25th. And Julie and Teenie and Stacey are running with me. Well, at the same time. Probably not "with me" as I'm the slowest runner in captivity.
  • I just ate left overs for lunch and have decided that all my lunches from now on have to be left overs. Which means that I have to cook something the night before that might precipitate left overs. I've decided that I am not a "make a sandwich in the morning and eat it at lunch" kind of girl.
All righty then.

Music Monday- Leather and Lace

OK... I picked this song because:
1. I like it and
B. Stevie Nicks is awesome and
Last. Dave Grohl does a great cover of it... with Will Ferrell...


Is love so fragile...
And the heart so hollow
Shatter with words...
Impossible to follow
You're saying I'm fragile... I try not to be
I search only... for something I can't see

I have my own life... and I am stronger
Than you know
But I carry this feeling
When you walked into my house
That you won't be walking out the door
Still I carry this feeling
When you walked into my house
That you won't be walking out the door

Lovers forever... face to face
My city or mountains
Stay with me stay
I need you to love me
I need you today
Give to me your leather...
Take from me... my lace

You in the moonlight
With your sleepy eyes
Could you ever love a man like me
And you were right
When I walked into your house
I knew I'd never want to leave
Sometimes I'm a strong man
Sometimes cold and scared
And sometimes I cry
But that time I saw you
I knew with you to light my nights
Somehow I'd get by
First time I saw you
I knew with you to light my nights
Somehow I would get by

Lovers forever... face to face
My city or mountains
Stay with me stay
I need you to love me
I need you today
Give to me your leather...
Take from me... my lace

Lovers forever... face to face
My city or mountains
Stay with me stay
I need you to love me
I need you to stay
Give to me your leather
Take from me... my lace
Take from me... my lace
Take from me... my lace
