*My Hands Are Shaking ~ Sondre Lerche

my hands are shaking from carrying this torch,
from carrying this torch for you,
my lips are bleeding from kissing you goodbye,
from kissing you goodbye every night,
my sheets are tearing from sleeping in too long,
from sleeping in too long with you

my hands are shaking from carrying this torch,
from carrying this torch for you,
my lips are bleeding from kissing you goodbye,
kissing you goodbye every night.

my head is where its always been,
if only I knew where,
my feet can stand the ground or more,
it seems that I don't care

(chorus)

my heart is pounding yes, yes, yes,
my mind just second guess,
my love is so articulate,
but I am such a mess.

my hands are shaking from carrying this torch
from carrying this torch for you,
my lips are bleeding from kissing you goodnight,
oh kissing you goodbye is all that I do,
my sheets are tearing from sleeping in too long,
from sleeping in too long with you,
my hands are shaking from carrying this torch,
carrying this torch for you.

*Mondern Nature ~ Sondre Lerche

The moment has come to face the truth
I'm wide awake, and so are you
Do you have a clue what this is? (I don't know)
Are you everything that I miss? (I don't hope so)
We'll just have to wait and see (Wait, and see)
If things go right we're meant to be

The surface is gone, we scratched it off
We made some plans, and let them go
Do you have the slightest idea (No, I don't)
Why the world is bright with you here? (Oh, is that so?)
Stay a while and wait and see (wait, and see)
If things go right we're meant to be


Oh, what a world this life would be
Forget all your technicolour dreams
Forget modern nature
This is how it´s meant to be

The time is here for being straight
It´s not too early and never too late
People say I should watch my pace (What do they know?)
"Think how you spend all your days" (They all say so)
They´ll just have to wait and see (Wait, and see)
If things go right they´ll have to agree

Oh, what a world this life would be
Forget all your technicolour dreams
Forget modern nature
This is how it´s meant to be

Do you have the slightest idea (No, I don't)
Why the world is bright with you here? (Oh, is that so?)
Stay a while and wait and see (wait, and see)
If things go right we're meant to be

Oh, what a world this life would be
Forget all your technicolour dreams
Forget modern nature
This is how it´s meant to be

Forget modern nature
This is how it´s meant to be

Well, we both have to be up early .... in just a couple of hours for you, actually.  Wow, that's awful!  Soon . . . . soon you will have a break, soon we'll be together again, soon . . . . but not soon enough. 

It's kinda funny ....  When you were gone, it felt like a lifetime!  Seriously, every day seemed like an eternity!  The closer homecoming came, the longer it took to get here.  Now that you're home . . . . well, now that you're home, it's like you were never gone.  And yet, I miss you like I haven't seen you in ages. 

I miss you, I love you, I am SO happy you're home, and I will see you . . . . soon!

I love you!!!!

It's later than I thought.  Except now it's just hit me, it was just after 8 when I gave the girls dinner and came in here.  Okay, so it makes sense, I guess.  I know this sounds just awful but . . . . . . . . I really thought I'd hear something from you by now.  I actually know how to make it sound worse .... I haven't heard from you all month.  And, now for the funny part ........ it's only the 6th  LOL  hahaha    But, seriously, I really thought I would have heard something from you by now.  Oh well, it's not like its a huge deal.  I know you're busy and I know I'll hear from you just as soon as you can send something.  I have 3 more days off work.  I'll probably leave after work on the 11th and drive down to the Orchard (no sense in leaving after the 8th since I have to work on the 10th and 11th)  This way, even though you'll be working, I'll be there for Valentine's Day.  Not that it really matters.  Seriously, I've always looked at that as just another day.  I mean, I love to do little things for my friends and family for Valentine's Day, but it's never really held any type of a romantic meaning for me, I guess.  Anyhow, I've changed my view on so many things these last few years, let's see where this year takes me on my view of Valentine's day  =) 
I think I had better get going so I can shoot you an email.  It's gotten harder to write these last couple of nights.  I don't really know what to write about because all I can think about is how I wish you were home.  I miss you so much! 

love,
~manda
