Summer days are gone too soon
We shoot the moon and miss completely
And now you're left to face the gloom
An empty room that once smelt so sweetly
Listening to Norah Jones on my iPod now. Love her warm, mellow voice. It's almost as if she is singing to me directly. Her lyrics paint images in my head: simple, sweet and poignant. Her tunes are gentle on the ear and soothing to the soul. Perfect for the rainy day it has been today.
Will you think of times you told me
That you knew the reason
Why we had to each be lonely
It was just the season
Have I really tried to shoot the moon and missed completely? Did I fail myself? Had I overstepped the boundaries and thought I had the power to do what I set out to do? Or was it, simply, just the season, the wrong time?
Well, perhaps I will know soon enough.
