Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.
-Rumi
soundtrack:
Annie's Song // John Denver
Let me lay down beside you
Let me always be with you
Come let me love you
I Saw The Light // Hank Williams
Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night
Praise the Lord I saw the light
Paint it, Black // The Rolling Stones
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door, I must have it painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black
Bohemian Rhapsody // Queen
Mama, just killed a man
Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead
Mama, life had just begun
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
People Will Say We're In Love // Shirley Jones & Gordon MacRae
Why do they think up stories that link my name with yours?
Why do the neighbors gossip all day behind their doors?
The Sound Of Silence // Disturbed
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
Can't Help Falling In Love // Elvis Presley
Wise men say only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you?
Danny Boy // Johnny Cash
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow,
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow,
It's I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow,
Oh, Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so!
'39 // Queen
But my love this cannot be
For so many years have gone though I'm older but a year
Your mother's eyes, from your eyes, cry to me
In The Wee Small Hours of the Morning // Frank Sinatra
In the wee small hours of the morning
While the whole wide world is fast asleep
You lie awake and think about the girl
And never, ever think of counting sheep
Sweet Annie // Zac Brown Band
But one day lightning will strike
And my bark will lose its bite
But don't give up on me
Sweet Annie
If I Loved You // Shirley Jones & Gordon MacRae
If I loved you
Words wouldn't come in an easy way
Round in circles I'd go
Longing to tell you, but afraid and shy
I'd let my golden chances pass me by
Soon you'd leave me
Off you would go in the mist of day
Never, never to know how I loved you
By The Light Of The Silvery Moon // Doris Day & Gordon MacRae
Honey moon, keep a-shinin' in June
Your silvery beams will bring love's dreams
We'll be cuddlin' soon by the silvery moon
White Queen (As It Began) // Queen
I loved the footsteps that she made
And when she came
White Queen how my heart did ache
And dry my lips no word would make
"PTSD is not the person refusing to let go of the past, but the past refusing to let go of the person".
