And once again, Leonard has already found the perfect expression for the mood we all seem to be in (and it is just so much the better that he has, too, because I am well aware that it is definitely more than a mere "mood" we are talking about here, but I am no good at finding exactly the right words for that specific after-concert state of mind and the nature of our affection for Leonard, which indeed leaves me more or less speechless as well; if it didn't, I would either be a pompous git - mind you, Habie, I am not implying that you are, because you are just so right; just speaking for myself here - or maybe even a poet, too! But as I am not, I am not even going to try to go into these very private and yet shared feelings any further!
. So let the master have his say instead):
I loved you for a long, long time
I know this love is real
It dont matter how it all went wrong
That dont change the way I feel
And I cant believe that times
Gonna heal this wound Im speaking of
There aint no cure,
There aint no cure,
There aint no cure for love.
Im aching for you baby
I cant pretend Im not
I need to see you naked
In your body and your thought
I've got you like a habit
And I'll never get enough
There ain't no cure,
There ain't no cure,
There ain't no cure for love
There ain't no cure for love
There ain't no cure for love
All the rocket ships are climbing through the sky
The holy books are open wide
The doctors working day and night
But they'll never ever find that cure for love
There ain't no drink, no drug
(ah tell them, angels)
Theres nothing pure enough to be a cure for love
I see you in the subway and I see you on the bus
I see you lying down with me, I see you waking up
I see your hand, I see your hair
Your bracelets and your brush
And I call to you, I call to you
But I don't call soft enough
There ain't no cure,
There ain't no cure,
There ain't no cure for love
I walked into this empty church I had no place else to go
When the sweetest voice I ever heard, whispered to my soul
I dont need to be forgiven for loving you so much
It's written in the scriptures
It's written there in blood
I even heard the angels declare it from above
There ain't no cure,
There ain't no cure,
There ain't no cure for love
...
"You thought that it could never happen / to all the people that you became"...
Love Calls You By Your Name
