![]() No More Sweet Music (2005) [ larger cover art ] |
Face your fate
remove all the lace
you love me to death
but death may love you more
you paint with glaze
but write me without grace
you love me to death
our love was mortal hope
oh you love me to death
but death may love you more
you grow in me
and although we disagree
you love me to death
you can not love me more
the best things in life to find
will not always satisfy
you can love me to death
but I will have to go
oh you love me to death
but I will have to go
oh you love me to death
but I will let you go
oh you love me to death
but I will let you go
oh you love me to death
but I will let you go
| apd (Toronto, On) | Posted: Mar 05, 2013 - 14:45 don't wish to be insensitive, but even though I know what this song is about (a stillborn child, apparently), I can't find that meaning in the lyrics. Can someone explain? laroue wrote: Face your faith Remove all the lace You love me to death But death may love you more You paint with glaze Oh you love me to death You grow in me The best things in life to find Oh you love me to death Oh you love me to death Oh you love me to death |

The Bulldog is ofcourse a Coffeeshop, but I was referring to the hostel where I was staying. It's quite comfortable and friendly in the hotel. I don't believe I have frequented the Graasshpper yet (though in the fog of Amsterdam bliss, it is entirely possible that I forgot), but I will check it out on my next visit, thank you. |

One of my all time favorite places on Planet Earth. Spent many a pleasant hour there, at least I think I did. Hang at the 'Hopper for a few hours then go catch a show at The Milkweg. Good times! |

Kfog would be a breath of fresh air! You know, I'm tired of listening to KFOG, probably because it's so easy to do. But - when they first went on air, they played obscure stuff like Peter Gabriel's "I Go Swimming" and other things that they wouldn't be caught dead playing today. I miss Scoop, M Dung, and the stuff that made the station special - if not a sure fire moneymaker. Of course, before KFOG, there was the 70s and KLOL out of Houston where I'd here Kraftwerk, ZZ Top, and Nat Lamp Radio Hour and then Headphones Only... Those were the days. And so, that sends me here.... |
