Sophia...You're a fire I can't put out....

When I thought that it was all over.... Everything began....

How wrong I was to think that I could do anything, to feel nothing and forget everything.How wrong I was to think that if I would immerse myself in work, drown myself with books and music, that I could not even remember that you existed.But no matter how much I tried to evade the thought of you, it seems that I have failed myself again.

Fore in spite of me giving myself 97 days to try not to think, speak and breathe your perseity, in spite some of my few close friends' counsel to distance myself, to try life with somebody else in it, to open myself to all the other possibilities, with just one song --- the very song that I have loved for 3 weeks now--- I am back to falling.

Why do we always have the same regard to music? Why do we like the same songs? We don't listen together, didn't even bother asking you about it but you end up sharing again. Our love for music is the binding force that leads me back to you....

You're like the fire in Nerina Pallot's new single Sophia:



5 o' clock and a fire escape symphony,
Spilling out across the road and the square,
And the sky's the same as your own, do you think of me?
Do the parks, and trees, and the leaves, reach you, there?
After the rain, in the lonely hours he haunts me,
calling out, Again and again.

Sophia, Sophia, I'm burning, I'm burning.
It's a fire, it's a fire, I cannot put out,
Sophia, Sophia, I'm learning that some things,
I can't go without and one of those is him.

And now I walk these streets like a stranger in my home town,
Learn the language, form the words when I speak,
But he changed me, I'm his ghost since he came around,
And now I count the hours and the days in the weeks.

Passion and silence,
Every word, every time, a measure,
It's the science of the soul,
And his books, they breathe a reason and now I want to know...

Sophia, Sophia, I'm burning, I'm burning,
It's a fire, it's a fire, I cannot put out,
Sophia, Sophia, I'm learning that some things,
I can't go without and one of those is him.

You, with your new born eyes,
Have you ever loved a man like I love him?
Do you hurt but still feel alive, like never before?
Oh, Sophia, Sophia.

Sophia, Sophia, I'm burning, I'm burning,
It's a fire, it's a fire, I cannot put out,
Sophia, Sophia, I'm learning that some things,
I can't go without and one of those is him.
