I woke up today with these words repeating in my head....

With heavy breath... awakened regrets...back pages and days alone that could have been spent together... but we were miles apart...every inch between us becomes light years now...

Now I will be singing this song all day...and I'm going to be sad!!!!!! :roll: :| :?



play Gonna See My Friend for god's sake... :)

    One of my favorite songs ever, by anyone. Pure poetry. I'm still hoping to catch this one live. 13 shows and no luck. But regardless, it'll always be one of my favorite songs. So damn beautiful.
