Tired of Being Alone
I'm so tired of being alone
I'm so tired of on-my-own
Won't you help me girl
Just as soon as you can
People say that I've found a way
To make you say that you love me
Hey baby, you didn't go for that
It's a natural fact
That I wanna come back
Show me where it's at, baby
I'm so tired of being alone
I'm so tired of on-my-own
Won't you help me girl
Soon as you can
I guess you know that I, uh, I love you so
Even though you don't want me no more
Hey hey hey hey, I'm cryin' tears
All through the years
I'll tell ya like it is
Honey, love me if you will
Yeah baby
Tired of being alone here by myself, now
I tell ya, I'm tired baby
I'm tired of being all wrapped up late at night
In my dreams, nobody but you, baby
Sometimes I wonder
If you love me like you say you do
You see baby, I been thinkin' about it, yeah
I been, I been wantin' to get next to you baby
Ya see, sometimes I hold my arms, I say mmmm hmmm hmmm
Yeah baby
Meeting you has proven to me
To be my greatest dream, yeah
Tired, baby
Yeah, you don't know what I'm talkin' about
Sometimes late at night I get to wonderin' about you baby
Oh baby, baby
I'm so tired of being alone
I'm so tired of being alone
I'm so tired of being alone...

No one can sing about love the way Al Green can. There is just something about his music that no one can hate. It's smooth, it's seductive, it's dynamic, it's unique, just like love. heh I especially love it when he hits those insanely high notes... its kinda like taking a risk in a relationship... it could go so TERRIBLY wrong. But if it works out, it'll be something so unique and original that only you could have created it, and you might never be able to do it again. Specific to the moment. love is the spontaneous realization of beauty.
it's just a beautiful thing.

woo hoo i just figured out how to put photos up on the site, and after undertaking the grueling task of actually finding a decent photo.. wala! Although, I know that it's awkwardly huge..
but hey, right now i have the self confidence not to squirm at the sight-- though next time my picture.. of whatever it is I post.. will be a bit smaller.
i dont know why i have the self confidence at the moment, to be honest... but I just do- no good reason i guess. either way, i just wanted to update so that there wouldnt be this huge picture of my pores up here without any sort of explanation. so there you have it. my lovely explanation.
lesson for the day : exfoliate

UNIVERSAL SOLDIER
He is five foot two,
and he's six feet four,
he fights with missiles and with spears,
he is all of thirty-one,
and he's only seventeen,
he's been a soldier for a thousand years.
He's a Catolic, a Hindu,
an athiest, A Chein,
A Buddhist, a Baptist and a Jew,
and he knows, he shouldn't kill,
and he knows, he always will,
kill you for me, my friend, and me for you.
And he's fighting for Canada,
he's fighting for France,
he's fighting for the USA
and he's fighting for the Russians,
he's fighting for Japan,
and he thinks we'll put an end to war this way.
And he's fighting for democracy,
he's fighting for the Reds,
he says it's for the peace of all,
he's the one who must decide,
who's to live and who's to die,
and he never sees the writing on the wall.
But without him, how would Hitler
kill the people at Dachau,
without him Cesar would have stood alone,
he's the one, who gives his body
as a weapon of the war,
and without him all this killing can't go on.
He's the universal soldier,
and he really is to blame,
his orders come from far away no more,
they come from here and there,
and you and me
and brothers, can't you see,
this is not the way we put an end to war.
