Tonight's ADWH Soundtrack

Two from Keb' Mo'...

It's no secret, I don't care
Gonna shout it out everywhere
I love my baby, hot, cold, fast or slow
I love my baby, gonna tell everybody I know

In the evening in my bed, I hear voices in my head
They say, "Never, never ever let her go"
Well, I love my baby, gonna tell everybody I know
Yes, I love my baby, gonna tell everybody I know

That was me about 14 years ago, when I was deep in love and all was right with the world.  That was then... this is now:

Mother Mary, father Joe I need to talk to your son 

He had troubles just like mine 

And he’s the chosen one 

So if I ever go to heaven, will that be the end? 

Or will I fall for some sweet little angel 

And do the same damn thing all over again 

You get the fever 

You get the itch 

And you forget about the mess you were in 

You forget about the money, the lawyers and the pain 

And do the same damn thing all over again

Mebbe it's old age, mebbe it's my abject fear o' getting burned again... but whatever it is, I've resisted the itch these last 14 years and I abso-frickin'-lute-ly refuse to be a three-time loser.  Lyle sang "Once Is Enough" and I'm thinkin' two times is one time too many, at the VERY least.  Am I cynical?  Mebbe.  But contrary to what Mr. Mo sez... I've yet to forget the lawyers and the pain.  The money?  No biggie... easy come, easy go.  The other bits?  Not so much.  Some wounds simply refuse to heal.
