togetherpat benatarWe belong, we belong to the light.
Many times I've tried to tell you
Many times I've cried alone
Always I'm surprised how well you
Cut my feelings to the bone
Don't want to leave you really
I've invested too much time
To give you up that easy
To the doubts that complicate your mind
We belong to the light
We belong to the thunder
We belong to the sound of the words
We've both fallen under
Whatever we deny or embrace
For worse or for better
We belong, We belong
We belong together
Maybe it's a sign of weakness
When I don't know what to say
Maybe I just wouldn't know
What to do with my strength anyway
Have we become a habit
Do we distort the facts
Now there's no looking forward
Now there's no turning back
When you say
We belong to the light
We belong to the thunder
We belong to the sound of the words
We've both fallen under
Whatever we deny or embrace
For worse or for better
We belong, we belong
We belong together
Close your eyes and try to sleep now
Close your eyes and try to dream
Clear your mind and do your best
To try and wash the palette clean
We can't begin to know it
How much we really care
I hear your voice inside me
I see your face everywhere
Still you say
We belong to the light
We belong to the thunder
We belong to the sound of the words
We've both fallen under
Whatever we deny or embrace
For worse or for better
We belong, we belong
We belong together
And they're not just lettin' any light in
And you feel like you'd like to give in
Don't you give up so soon
What you need is a friend to count on
What you got, baby, you got someone
Who will stay when the rain is fallin'
And won't let it fall on you
I'll see you through
I'll cover you with a love so deep and warm and true
I will be there
Honey, I'll be your shelter
I'll be the one to take you through the night
Whenever you need shelter
I'll make everything alright
Make everything alright
I got arms strong enough to hold you
Get you through anything you go through
Anything that you need
You know it's only a touch away
When your heart needs a heart beside it
Should be mine that it's keeping time with
'Coz I got so much love inside it
It beats for you every day
I'll be the one
To give you love
When it seems like there's just not enough
Mine will be there
Honey, I'll be your shelter
I'll be the one to take you through the night
Whenever you need shelter
I'll make everything alright
Make everything alright
I'll see you through
I'll cover you with a love so deep and warm and true
I will be there
Honey I'll be your shelter
I'll be the one to take you through the night
Whenever you need shelter
I'll make everything alright
Make everything alright
reflectionsnew yearSo that was 2007, nearly.
(1) I spent about 6 months in the USA this year. At the beginning of the year, I had no idea that would happen.
(2) I went to Dubai and to Africa (again).
(3) My father had a heart attack. He's ok, but his belief in his immortality has been shaken.
(4) I've spent enough time in the USA. But I wouldn't mind an assignment to the UK.
(5) I dated several gorgeous guys, all but one of whom was gay. Give me gay guys every time. They are so much fun to be with.
(6) I am no closer to moving back to Melbourne.
(7) I started the year not being in a relationship. I end the year not being in a relationship. *le sigh*
I'm home.
I cannot believe that I have spent most of the last 6 months in the US, mainly in Sacramento.
I am having trouble driving on the left hand side of the road - my instinct is to head to the right-hand side, and as for making right-hand turns ...
And of course, it's summer in Australia (although looking outside today, with clouds and light-rain, that doesn't seem quite right). It snowed in Northern California last week.
Sigh ...
sacramento
It has been a long time since I was last on here.
Since then, I've been to the US and back and to the US again. I'm in California again, after spending a couple of weeks in Vancouver (what a great city).
Home soon.
