i'm certain, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that i was born in the wrong era. i was made for the '70s and '80s. it's a part of me that somehow just finds its place. the world offers you no solace, your head is spinning in opposite directions and your heart is broken in 20 different places, but when you hear that tune on the radio, you just find home. how can i fall so madly in love in less than 20 seconds? it was there all along, i just had to wait for the right moment for it to happen. someone invent a time machine and send me back, or else i'll do it myself. i really want to play this song with a band someday, in front of a live audience.

when i woke up,
the rain was pouring down,
there were people standing all around,
something warm falling through my eyes,
but somehow i found my baby that night.

i lifted her head, she looked at me and said,
"hold me darling just a little while"
i held her close, i kissed her our last kiss,
i found a love that i knew i had missed,
but now she's gone, even though i hold her tight,
i lost my love, my life that night.

emotions overflow, because we are creatures of the night.
