would something as hammy as No More The Fool by Elkie Brooks or Total Eclipse of the Heart by Bonnie Tyler work? I guess they're more from a female perspective though...

first part: check second part: a random? I may have very low standards and I admit I may often fail to achieve them, however I only sleep with people I love.

Im getting grey in my stubble, more lines. I cant see too well and I dont get out or do much. The frost has kept me off the allotment and now its gone the ground is waterlogged. Ive still got raspberry canes to get in and the pigeons hav epulled out my garlic I planted.
In reply to dinkypen: I havent rode the Triumph in a gay while and its 12,000 mile service is due (£440) I havent got any money, theres no work and I may be redundant by the end of the month.

However whats really bothering me is woman trouble

In reply to Removed User: Aimee Mann - Wise Up
In reply to Fawksey: for my heart:

A dark cloud came in from the west
like a shadow
carrying rain from off the Irish sea
and were it not for the rain drops on your hair
I might think those were tears on your haunted face
And as we stumbled alone across our pennine moor
the peat hag pools were as dark as your thoughts


There is no shelter here.
The pennines face the brunt of all that turmoiled weather
from the west
so we bow our heads, trudge thickly forwards.


As the clouds pass and a watery sun emerges to take
the chill from damp bones I'll look at you and wonder
for a second
if that's the sparkle of your eyes,
or the sunlight catching drops of Irish rain,
clinging to your lashes; gilding you.
