So I guess this is what I get for listening to my "Mellow" playlist. (I know I feel like a supreme dork, but I'm working on the playlist thing - "Basketball Warm-up Songs" is much more upbeat.
So Colin Hay (of the 80s band Men at Work) contributed an incrdible acoustic song to The Garden State Soundtrack - one of the best soundtracks of all time, right up there with Mad Love (shout out 1995!) Anyways, here is the sappy sad song that has me wanting to leave work early for a cup of tea and crying session...
I Just Don't Think I'll Ever Get Over You
by Colin Hay
I drink good coffee every morning
Comes from a place that's far away
And when I'm done I feel like talking
Without you here there is less to say
I don't want you thinking I'm unhappy
What is closer to the truth
That if I lived till I was 102
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
I'm no longer moved to drink strong whiskey
'Cause I shook the hand of time and I knoew
That if I lived till I could no longer climb my stairs
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
Your face it dances and it haunts me
Your laughter's still ringing in my ears
I still find pieces of your presence here
Even after all these years
But I don't want you thinking I don't get asked to dinner
'Cause I'm here to say that I sometimes do
Even though I may soon fell the touch of love
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
If I lived till I was 102
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
To have a man feel about you like that.........
