We were merely freshmen...
Two nights ago, Bel's nick on msn was a line that came from this song and I remembered how much I love it for so many reasons.
Hugs to you dear. I hope and pray that things will be ok for you one day soon.
Hugs to you dear. I hope and pray that things will be ok for you one day soon.
When I was young I knew everything
And she a punk who rarely ever took advice
Now I'm guilt stricken, sobbing with my head on the floor
Stop a baby's breath and a shoe full of rice
I can't be held responsible
Cause she was touching her face
I won't be held responsible
She fell in love in the first place
For the life of me I cannot remember
What made us think we were wise and we'd never compromise
For the life of me I cannot believe
We'd ever die for these sines
We were merely freshmen
My best friend took a week's vacation to forget her
His girl took a week's worth of valium and slept
Now he's guilt stricken, sobbing with his head on the floor
Thinks about her now and how he never really wept he says
We've tried to wach our hands of all of this
We never talk of our lacking relationships
And how we're guilt stricken, sobbing with our heads on the floor
We fell through the ice when we tried not to slip, we'd say...

Dear Jo,
You really have a knack for posting songs that I used to listen to. This one was especially haunting, a lovely track that makes me pine for the past where the simple tunes and beautiful words evoke such strong emotions. Shall dig up my old verve pipe cd...take care jo and good luck for the coming exams!
Mark
