Tears & Rain

The new James Blunt album, “Back To Bedlam”, truly amazes me. There’s not a single track in this album that I don’t deeply enjoy. I really hope that he keeps up the awesome job. Specially now, with my current mood and..well.. thoughts and mixed feelings and all that, this album has been a life saver. Here are the lyrics for one of my favorite tracks. Fits my feelings so well right now.

“Tears And Rain”

How I wish I could surrender my soul;
Shed the clothes that become my skin;
See the liar that burns within my needing.
How I wish I’d chosen darkness from cold.
How I wish I had screamed out loud,
Instead I’ve found no meaning.

I guess it’s time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure’s the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I’ve heard what they say, but I’m not here for trouble.
It’s more than just words: it’s just tears and rain.

How I wish I could walk through the doors of my mind;
Hold memory close at hand,
Help me understand the years.
How I wish I could choose between Heaven and Hell.
How I wish I would save my soul.
I’m so cold from fear.

I guess it’s time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure’s the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I’ve heard what they say, but I’m not here for trouble.
Far, far away; find comfort in pain.
All pleasure’s the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
It’s more than just words: it’s just tears and rain.

🙂 <3

What’s happening to you lady? What’s getting you in the tears and rain mood? 🙂
I have to go get myself the album now…

Sweety I’m so sorry for what’s happening. But well, we both know that you’ll get through. You always do. You’re the most powerful person I know, desert rose. ^_^ <3

But you never run. It’s just not your thing. You always face it full force. 🙂

Beautiful album. But hey what’s wrong with ya?
Alexis October 3rd, 2006 at 17:15 6
wow! I had only heard “you’re beautiful” and “wise me” from this album. Since those are the tracks with vidoes I thought they would be the best of the album. Apparently that is not the case!

Interesting lyrics!

Hey you gotta calm down a little. It’s going to be alright. Plus she’s not a kid, stop worrying!
Great album by the way. 🙂

Yeah, with “you’re beautiful” you’d think that this guy would become a one hit wonder. Doesn’t seem likely now though!

Aasemoon, take it easy for God’s sake! Right now you need to be listening to happy boomchiboomchis instead of this. :S

Awesome… this is awesome!

You seem to need a liiiiiiittle more Madazulu.
Aasemoon October 4th, 2006 at 15:53 13
Hehe 😀
jema October 4th, 2006 at 15:55 14
What’s Madazulu? Sounds weird!
What you need is a break lady. Can’t you just leave everything and come stay with us for a while?

I guess it’s time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain…
Jema I really really wish I could. But you know it’s not possible right now…

By the way, Madazulu is the name of a Deep Forest track which can turn me into a happy girl any day of the week! 😀

“Running wild among all the stars above”

I’d be happier if you listen to that one instead.

Eddie October 5th, 2006 at 03:35 18
What do you mean which one is that? 😛 It’s the first track of the album! “High”
