Nothing too major, just something light. But I promise I'll blog about that "major" something. As Flo said, I'm going through a phase. A lot of thoughts screaming in my head at the same time. A lot of things to pray for.
Anyway, this song is currently the only song on my playlist. Yep, the only one. Most people don't know that I don't get sick of a song that easily. I could literally have just one song playing the whole day. Talk about perennial LSS. It's a song by Billy Joel, released in 1984 (the year I was born!) It's fun and it's catchy, something that suits Friday afternoons. A good choir can do justice to it. And I guess I can relate to some of the lyrics as well. :)
Let's sing! :) If you don't know the song, I can sing it for you :P Haha! Not as good as Billy Joel sings it, though.
For the Longest Time
Billy Joel
Oh, oh, oh, oh
For the longest time
Oh, oh, oh, oh
For the longest time
If you said goodbye to me tonight
There would still be music left to write
What else could I do
I'm so inspired by you
That hasn't happened for the longest time
Once I thought my innocence was gone
Now I know that happiness goes on
That's where you found me
When you put your arms around me
I haven't been there for the longest time
Oh, oh, oh, oh
For the longest time
Oh, oh, oh, oh
For the longest
I'm that voice you're hearing in the hall
And the greatest miracle of all
Is how I need you
And how you needed me too
That hasn't happened for the longest time
Maybe this won't last very long
But you feel so right
And I could be wrong
Maybe I've been hoping too hard
But I've gone this far
And it's more than I hoped for
Who knows how much further we'll go on
Maybe I'll be sorry when you're gone
I'll take my chances
I forgot how nice romance is
I haven't been there for the longest time
I had second thoughts at the start
I said to myself
Hold on to your heart
Now I know the woman that you are
You're wonderful so far
And it's more than I hoped for
I don't care what consequence it brings
I have been a fool for lesser things
I want you so bad
I think you ought to know that
I intend to hold you for the longest time
Oh Oh Oh Oh
For the longest time
Oh Oh Oh Oh
For the longest time
Oh Oh Oh Oh
For the longest time
I luv this song! So chubbs, what hasn't happened for the longest time? ;-D
