Rachael Yamagata Is Queen of Heartbreak-Emo.
Just now, after the Russian choir rehearsal, I asked Aaron to stay back and sing with me.
We only had time for half a song, because I (wrongly) thought I had to rush off. He started plonking random stuff, and eventually drifted into Autumn Leaves. My favourite. Ivy's favourite. And you know, that moment of listening to his killer piano chords and smooth phrasing wash over me, and my voice singing out everything I was really feeling ... man, that moment was gold. It made me so happy and content. The perfect moment.
I made Aaron promise we'll schedule a 'karaoke' jamming session, where we'll just get together and perform to nobody but ourselves. I miss it so much.
Fall Out Boy's in two days. I can't wait! :)
These days all my food is half-eaten. And why do I bump into three totally insensitive people in two days? I don't need this shit.
"I think about how it might have been
We'd spend our days travellin'
It's not that I don't understand you, it's not
That I don't want to be with you,
But you only wanted me the way you wanted me
So I will head out alone, hope for the best
We can hang our heads down as we skip the goodbyes
You can tell the world what you want them to hear,
I've got nothing left to lose, my dear
So I'm up for the little white lies
But you and I, we know the reason why
I'm gone and you're still there
I'm gone and you're still there
I'm gone and you're still there
I buy a magazine, searching for your face
From coast to coast, or wherever I find my place
I'll track you on the radio, and I'll sign
Your list in a different name
But as close as I get to you, it's not the same
So I will head out alone, hope for the best
We can pat ourselves on the back, and say that we tried
And if one of us makes it big, we can spill all regrets
And talk about how the love never dies
But you and I, we know the reason why
I'm gone and you're still there
I'm gone and you're still there
I'm gone and you're still there
So steal the show and do your best
To cover the tracks that I've left
I wish you well and hope you find whatever you're looking for
And where I might have changed my mind, but
You only showed me the door
So I will head out alone, hope for the best
We can pat ourselves the back, and say that we tried
And if one of us makes it big, we can spill all regrets
And talk about how the love never dies
With you and I
You and I
We know the reason why"
