You better be bobbing your head

I heart this song!

Forever Young

2008 is coming to an end in just a few hours so I thought I should pay my respects to this part of my life that had become dormant.

It was not as though nothing was going on to write about. It was a case of too much going on and me being overwhelmed by a multitude of situations and emotions. It's still me - enriched by experiences, heart broken yet hopeful, loved yet wanting, enthusiastic yet cautious. My hair is still curly (thank God) and I still love music and coffee ....and travel. There is one thing that has changed. My backdrop is no longer the desert of Arizona or the skyscrapers of New York City. It's wherever life takes me...and at present that means the blinding speed, fashion and lights of Tokyo.

I'm leaving you with this song by Youth Group - "Forever Young"...and a promise to keep writing :)

"Forever Young"

Let's dance in style let's dance for a while,
Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies,
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst,
Are you gonna drop the bomb or not?

Let us die on let us live forever,
Don't have the power but we never say never,
Sitting in the sandpit life is a short trip,
Music's for the sad man

Can you imagine when this race is run,
Turning up our faces into the sun,
Praising our leaders getting in tune,
Music's played by the mad man

Forever young, I want to be forever young,
Do you really want to live forever?
Forever forever,
Forever young, I want to be forever young,
Do you really want to live forever?
Forever, forever

Some are like water Some are like the heat,
Some are melodies Some are the beat,
Sooner or later they'll all be gone,
Why don't they stay on?
It's hard to get without a cause,
I don't want to perish like a fading voice,
Youth is like diamonds in the sun,
And diamonds are forever,
So many adventures couldn't happened today,
So many songs that we forgot to play,
So many dreams swimming out in the blue,
Let them come true
Forever young I want to be forever young,
Do you really want to live forever?
Forever, forever

Coordinates

Everything goes status quo, till Life happens.
New coordinates. Write them down.

Strawberry Swing :)

They were sitting
They were sitting in the strawberry swing
Every moment was so precious

They were sitting
They were talking in the strawberry swing
Everybody was for fighting
Wouldn't wanna waste a thing

Cold, cold water
Bring me round
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Cold, cold water
What ya say?
It's such…
It's such a perfect day
It's such a perfect day

I remember
We were walking up to strawberry swing
I can't wait 'til the morning
Wouldn't wanna change a thing

People leaving all the time
Inside a perfectly straight line
Don't you wanna curve away
It's such…
It's such a perfect day
It's such a perfect day

Now the sky could be blue
I don't mind
Without you it's a waste of time

Could be blue
I don’t mind
Without you it’s a waste of time

Could be blue,
could be grey
without you I’m just miles away

could be blue
I don’t mind
Without you it’s a waste of time

True today than ever before

Anjani Rahoein Mein Tu Kya Dhoondhanta Phire...
Door Jisko Samjha Who To Paas Hai Tere...
Saans Mein Hawa...Jaan Mein Zameen...

Pyaar Hai Khuda, Pyaar Hai Khushi..ii..
Pyaar Se Hai Dono Jahan...
Tera Ye Aashiyana ..aa..

O Anjani Rahon Mein Phir Kya Dhoondhanta Phire...
Door Jisko Samjha Who To Paas Hai Tere...
Ghoomta Raha... Door Tu Kahin...

Lot Ke Aa Ab Jara...
Tera Ye Aashiyana ..aa..

Woh Jhilmilati Aakhein ... Bholi Si Ada...
