When a name defines an era

A soul mate once said to me, "If someone were to look around in my mind trying to find what memories and images are attached to what parts of my life, I really don't know where you would not be. You even backdate because of all the past experiences pre-dating you that obtained new meanings due to you."

I tell everyone
I smile just because
I've got a city love
I found it in Lydia
And I can't remember life before her name *

This one came with chocolate...yum!

Edge of Desire
by John Mayer

Young and full of running
Tell me where has that taken me?
Just a great figure eight or a tiny infinity?

Love is really nothing
But a dream that keeps waking me,
For all of my trying
We still end up dying, how can it be?

Don't say a word just come over and lie here with me,
'Cause I'm just about to set fire to everything I see,
I want you so bad, I'll go back on the things I believed,
There I just said it, I'm scared you'll forget about me.

So young and full of running,
all the way to the edge of desire
Steady my breathing, silently screaming,
"I have to have you now"

Wired and I'm tired
Think I'll sleep in my clothes on the floor
Maybe this mattress will spin on its axis
and find me on yours

Don't say a word just come over and lie here with me
'Cause I'm just about to set fire to everything I see
I want you so bad I'll go back on the things I believe
There I just said it, I'm scared you'll forget about me

Don't say a word just come over and lie here with me
'Cause I'm just about to set fire to everything I see
I want you so bad I'll go back on the things I believe
There I just said it, I'm scared you'll forget about me

Bigger than my body

Someday I'll fly
Someday I'll soar
Someday I'll be so damn much more
'Cause I'm bigger than my body gives me credit for

Stop This Train by John Mayer

No I'm not color blind
I know the world is black and white
I try to keep an open mind
But I just can't sleep on this tonight

Stop this train
I want to get off and go home again
I can't take the speed it's moving in
I know I can't
But honestly, won't someone stop this train?
