Shallow.

Jumping with your eyes closed, Landing on the sun
Being young and beautiful, In love with no one
But yourself

And people tell you you're pretty yeah
Your smile drives them crazy lady
You wanna slowly fade away, but you can't, So you stay

Playing for the public, Making them love you
You're so cruel

And people tell you you're pretty yeah
Your smile drives them crazy lady
You wanna slowly fade away, but you can't
So you stay with me, with me, Bokkie

I'm on an island for two

And people tell tell you you're pretty yeah
Your smile drives them crazy lady
You wanna slowly fade away, but you can't
So you stay with me

Bokkie - Elefant


This used to be one of those songs that did it for me some years back. And sadly this wasn't the song that made me fall in love with the group either. That was another. It's odd how we find music or rather I believe it finds us. I discovered this band when I'd been through far too much with life, given up but then there was the music. Ready to save me. How was I? How do I put this delicately? I wasn't a nice person. As a matter of fact I didn't think about anyone else. Shallow? Too shallow for love or anything else. I was on disconnect. Then last year when everything  forcibly came to a STOP something changed. Now most people will get a second chance and never see it. Opportunity will come around and if you miss it, that's a shame. Anyway, enjoy the music. Let it save you, sing to you, fill your open places. enjoy, kisses. m.
