If it was anyone else, it wouldn't be so hard.

Lyrics for an aching heart.



The Luckiest - Ben Folds

I don't get many things right the first time
In fact, I am told that a lot
Now I know all the wrong turns, the stumbles and falls
Brought me here

And where was I before the day
That I first saw your lovely face?
Now I see it everyday
And I know

That I am
I am, I am
The luckiest

What if I'd been born fifty years before you
In a house on the street where you live?
Maybe I'd be outside as you passed on your bike
Would I know?

And in a wide sea of eyes
I see one pair that I recognize
And I know

That I am
I am, I am
The luckiest

I love you more than I have ever found a way to say to you

Next door there's an old man who lived to his nineties
And one day passed away in his sleep
His wife, she stayed for a couple of days
And passed away

I'm sorry, I know that's a
strange way to tell you that I know
we belong
That I know
That I am
I am, I am
The luckiest

Every Thug Needs a Lady - Alkaline Trio

I know it's dark here
You know that I'm scared, too
For some reason right now
Of everything but you
Right now, you're all that I recognize
You know I came here
When I needed your soft voice
I needed to hear something
That sounded like an answer
And I'll wait here and sometimes I get one

It's nothing I'll forget
When the moon gets tired
You're stuck to me every day
Believe in what I am
Because it's all I have today
And tomorrow who knows where we'll be

From here I can hardly see a thing
But I will follow anyone who brings me to you
For now, forever, for on and on and on

You know it starts here
Outside waiting in the cold
Kiss me once in the snow
I swear it never gets old
And I will promise you I can make it warmer next year
You know I came here
When I needed your soft voice
I needed to hear something
That sounded like an answer
Now I stay here and everyday I get one

It's nothing I'll forget
When the moon gets tired
You're stuck to me every day
Believe in what I am
Because it's all I have today
And tomorrow who knows where we'll be

From here I can hardly see a thing
But I will follow anyone who brings me to you
For now, forever, for on and on and on

So go plug in your electric blanket
We could stay here till our southern summer wedding day
Go plug in your electric blanket
We can stay here

I'll Catch You - The Getup Kids

can you sleep as the sound hits you ears?
one at a time
an unspoken balance here
unabridged for so many years

that I should stare at
receivers
to receive her
isn't fair

don't worry I'll catch you
don't worry I'll catch you
don't ever worry

your arms in mine
any time
wouldn't trade anything
you're still my everything

to my suprise
before my eyes
you arrive

don't worry I'll catch you
don't worry I'll catch you
don't ever worry

still breaking old habits,
habits
you pulled the wool over me
and I can see everything
everything
remembering
Jinx removing

don't worry I'll catch you
don't wory I'll catch you
don't ever worry

no need for reminding
you're still all that matters to me

Two of those songs I recognize and make me smile a little, they alos bring back some bitter sweet memories.
