Sing my song - Solitude


How many times, do I ever try to run?
How many times, do I ever try to hide myself?
Waiting, forgotten, for someone who’ll never come
How many times, do I ever come back to your arms?

Oh solitude, stay with me
There’s only you
Oh solitude, there’s forever me and forever you
And together we break from inside…

How can you torture me so sweetly?
Why can’t I escape from your heavy spell?
Why do all the questions end up in your silence?
Why do all the reasons fall at your demand?

Oh solitude, stay with me
There’s only you

Oh solitude, I can’t abandon you,
I can’t leave you, not a part of me…

Don’t go solitude, unless you…
Don’t leave solitude, don’t you?
Hold on to me solitude, revive me and express me
And then when I’ll be in the highest sky…

Cut my wings, see me fall back into your arms…

Happy Christmas - War Is Over

Remembering John Lennon
(9.10.1940 - 8.12.1980)

Creative Writing 801

We love Christmas, because it is a wonderful time.
The twelve days of Christmas are the days that separate Christmas Day,
December 25, from Epiphany, January 6.
In the past there was a tradition of giving gifts throughout the twelve days instead of giving them all on the morning of December 25.
We aren’t that patient any more!
At Christmas, people give each other presents. This tradition seems to have started with the gifts the Wise Men brought to Jesus: gifts of gold, incense and myrrh. Later the habit of exchanging gifts began.
Curiosities
What do Santa Claus and Coca Cola have in common?
In 1931, Haddon Sundblom was the artist who made Santa Claus look like the person he is today: a jovial face with a big white beard. It was created for an ad campaign for the Coca Cola Company!
What are the names of the reindeer?
Here they are: Blitzen, Comet, Cupid, Dancer, Dasher, Donder, Prancer,Vixen, and of course the leader is Rudolf, the Red-Nosed Reindeer because he’s the only one that can see through the fog according to the song!
We love Christmas, because it’s nice, cool, with lots of spirits and it is just around the corner.
We like Christmas, because we are with our family. We give and receive gifts, we decorate the Xmas tree and some may kiss under the mistletoe.

Hey there Delilah


Hey there Delilah
What's it like in New York City?
I'm a thousand miles away
But girl, tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Times Square can't shine as bright as you
I swear it's true
Hey there Delilah
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice, it's my disguise
I'm by your side
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me
Hey there Delilah
I know times are getting hard
But just believe me, girl
Someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar
We'll have it good
We'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good
Hey there Delilah
I've got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away
I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall
We'd have it all
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
and we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Delilah I can promise you
That by the time we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame
Hey there Delilah
You be good and don't you miss me
Two more years and you'll be done with school
And I'll be making history like I do
You'll know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah here's to you
This one's for you
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me.
