~VANDO~ by Gerald Baker
Poor my heart out I can't speak right now
And with no doubt frozen feet some how
A trickling tear down my face's cheek
Sudden fear preventing my lips to speak
How could I know
The end for you was soon
I wish that I knew
So I could say that I love you
Hardened hearts, a lump growing in my throat
A simple "I'm sorry" to sow another oat
But content to speak held my thoughts deep within
Faithfull evening that sent my life in a spin
Trying to confide with one another
Tears fall to the floor
Tissue after tissue
Never delt with so much before
Jokes we shared, the smiles you shared
Let me know then that you've always cared
A picture in your locker baring my face
Only to become a picture in an empty space
How could I know
The end for you was soon
I wish that I knew
So I could say I love you
Emptiness inside, left with complete despair
As if a peice of me is gone, no way to repair
Seeing it all end, closiour on ones grand ball
Celebration of your life, the dance goes on for all
How could I know
The end for you was soon
I wish that I knew
So I could say I love you

"HEAR YOU ME" by Jimmy Eat World
There's no one in town I know
You gave us some place to go
I never said thank you for that
Thought I might get one more chance
What would you think of me now
So lucky, so strong, so proud
I never said thank you for that
Now I'll never have a chance
May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friend
On the sleepless roads the sleepless go
May angels lead you in
So what would you think of me now
So lucky, so strong, so proud
I never said thank you for that
Now I'll never have a chance
May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friend
On the sleepless roads the sleepless go
May angels lead you in
May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friend
On the sleepless roads the sleepless go
May angels lead you in
And if you were with me tonight
I'd sing to you just one more time
A song for a heart so big
God wouldn't let it live
May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friend
On the sleepless roads the sleepless go
May angels lead you in
May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friend
On the sleepless roads the sleepless go
May angels lead you in
...May angels lead you in Stace...
I wrote the lyrics to VANDO just this past summer. I was thinking a lot
about Stace then and just everything started pooring out. The week of
Stacy's accident, she had gotten mad at me about something. I don't
remember
quite what it was, but to this day it tears at me. Knowing that she left
this world upset with me. I wasn't friends with her long, I think 7th
grade
was when we started to become good friends. But the time we spent
together
was always full of jokes and laughter. I just hope that she's forgiven
me by
now. I love you Stacy.
The Jimmy Eat World song, HEAR YOU ME, is on a CD called BLEED AMERICAN
if anyone would like to pick it up. It's sold at any Target, Best Buy,
or
Hot Topic. Also if you would like to hear our song, VANDO. Our band is
called TWICE FOR THE SAME and we will probably be playing shows around
the
Watertown area soon. For updates you can check our site or email me at
