This song was a challenge to me to write lyrics to a guitar part I have - something I usually fail at. But since today somehow I've managed to minimise the buzzing of my crappy little mic, that helped since I could sort of sing along without moving my hands... somehow my hands and my mouth are unable to think seperately. Also, since I actually have a full guitar part for this one and mic that's working even though it's not the lovliest thing you've ever heard, I think I will actually post a recording soon - how exciting! Bear in mind its not going to be highest quality thing in terms of the recording... but I will go practice my singing a bit first. So I just thought I'd bring the lyrics here while I do that:
Somehow I've ended up behind the stage,
Black except the blue light,
That illuminates your deathly face,
Fumbling to find the words when I so rarely ever speak,
Not with my mouth at least,
But I'd rather die than text this.
I want to be your friend,
Look me in the eye, Look me in the eye,
I can't see you there.
I want to be your best pal,
In real life, if that's still around.
Jehnny, I want to stare you in the eye,
And understand.
Jehnny, I want to stare you in the eye.
You were my neighbour a thousand million years ago,
And we would sit by the fire,
And lay our hearts on the hearthstone,
I huddle close cos I am finding all this blue light,
Colder than the amber spikes,
That I remember,
And you were fonder,
And I I I
I want to be your friend,
Look me in the eye, Look me in the eye,
I can't see you there.
I want to be your best pal,
In real life if thats still around.
Jehnny, I want to stare you in the eye,
And understand,
Jehnny, I want to stare you in the eye.
Come with me,
Out of the light,
Let me see your hands and hold your eyes.
Come with me,
Into the woods at night,
There are no wolves, the only wolves are you and I.
I want to be your friend,
Look me in the eye, Look me in the eye,
I can't see you there,
I want to be your best pal,
In real life if thats still around.
Jehnny...
Jehnny, I want to stare you in the eye,
And understand,
Jehnny, I want to stare you in the eye.
