I Miss You Right Now

As many of you know, I'm a huge music junkie. I recently heard a song that I am really fond of that I'd like to share with you. The lyrics are very close to how I'm feeling lately:

5:19 - Matt Wertz

I'd be lying through my teeth if I told you
That I'm ok

When July came I thought I had it all together
Til' you said I need some space
Truth be told
It's so hard to wait

With one eye on the clock
And one on the phone
It's 5:19...
I'm feeling alone
And if I could talk to you
I'd want you to know
I'm holding loose
But ain't letting go

We both know that I could think myself dizzy
Right now I'm spinning around
I know you said, "baby, don't worry"
But I miss you right now
I said I, miss you right now

With one eye on the clock
And one on the phone
It's 5:19...
I'm feeling alone
And if I could talk to you
I'd want you to know
I'm holding loose
But ain't letting go

Baby, take all the time you need
I just want you to know
I'll be here, waiting

With one eye on the clock
And one on the phone
It's 5:19...
I'm feeling alone
And if I could talk to you
I'd want you to know
I'm holding loose
But ain't letting go

My Eyes Adored You

How many of you remember the Frankie Valli song, "My Eyes Adored You?" Somehow the words and the tune came to me today. I was thinking about how it was just a little more than 2 months since Jane passed away. Then the words to the song came to mind:
All my life I will remember how warm and tender
We were way back then
Though I'm feeling sad regrets I know I won't ever forget
You, my childhood friend

My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you,
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me you couldn't see
How I adored you:
So close, so close and yet so far
Yes, it seems so close since Jane was here, and yet so far away. At times I can't even remember her voice, so I'm going to look for a recording that I have of her singing, and:
reminisce about the girl I miss
And the love I left behind...
