Fischer Z "So Long"

When I read your letter I couldn’t believe that you’d gone.
I dialed your number but no one answered your phone.
I asked your friends to tell me if they knew where you were.
They said that they thought they were ill.

I hired a detective to try and find out where you are. eek
He managed to trace you, he said you were living in France.
A watchman saw you climb into someone else’s car,
and drive off laughing in the night.

Why didn’t you tell me?
Not leave me this way!
You could have told me.
Not waited for so long.

I’ve tried to forget you, but I found myself walking the streets.
I went to the doctor and he gave me something to sleep.
I’ve sent you telegrams, but you haven’t answered one.
Your mother told me, I best leave you all alone. eek

I hope you’re satisfied now you’ve done this thing to me.
I hope you’re pleased with what you’ve done.

Why didn’t you tell me?
Not leave me this way!
You could have told me.
Not waited for so long.

tho' I battled blind
love is a fate resigned
memories mar my mind
love it is a fate resigned

Over futile odds
and laughed at by the Gods
and now the final frame
Love is a losing game

"Gimme All Your Lovin'... Or I Will Kill You eek " -- Macy Gray

he drives a g wagon
and he looks just like my dream
I been climbin' all his mountains
I been swimming all his seas

no matter what or how I tried
I couldn't get the man to fall in love with me
turns out he likes the girls with long and wavy hair
mine is short and kinky
I have lost my mind

c'mon and
gimme all your lovin'
or I will kill you
put one through your head
gimme all your lovin'
or I will kill you
and cry when you're dead

his whole body was shaking
and he holla'd when he fell to his knees
I held tighter to my ak
he said please please whatever you need
see I have searched the wide world
to find the peace for the war in me
don't wanna look no further
but you refuse to give it to me

and I have lost my mind

c'mon and
gimme all your lovin'
or I will kill you
put one through your head
gimme all your lovin'
or I will kill you
and cry when you're dead

it's amazing what a gun to the head can do eek falloff
my baby loves me now as hard as he can
my methods may be suspect :hmmm:
but you gotta get love however you can lol

I have lost my mind!

aren't most of Robert Smith's songs a bit obsessive... sometimes unhealthily so,heh. i mean, just think of the lyrics to the figurehead, or shake dog shake.

Sarah McLachlan-POSSESSION (from 'Fumbling Towards Ecstacy)

Song was based on some obsessive letters Sarah recieved from a crazed fan. I beleive he even sued her for plagerism!

'...and I would be the one...to hold you down...kiss you so hard and take your breath away...and after that wash away the tears..and close your eyes dear'

that's some creepy shit! But great song.

peace

I don't find that song obsessive at all. I find it warm and romantic and lovely and delightful.
