r|break: j.buckley

when i head over to SF for lunch, i make a point to have my fastrak + r|music.

this past week, my lunch (at osha thai) was with a college friend, g, who works at the place where i had my first "real job" (... benefits, office supplies, name plate, i.d. card, etc.) out of college. (macy's and the limited kinda counted.)

my r|music choice for the bridge crossing? ... an oldie but way (WAY!!!) goodie. from jeff buckley's grace ...

last goodbye

this is our last goodbye
i hate to feel the love between us die
but it's over
just hear this and then i'll go:
you gave me more to live for,
more than you'll ever know.

this is our last embrace,
must i dream and always see your face
why can't we overcome this wall
well, maybe it is just because i didn't know you at all.

kiss me, please kiss me
but kiss me out of desire, babe, and not consolation
you know, it makes me so angry 'cause i know that in time
i'll only make you cry, this is our last goodbye.

did you say "no, this can't happen to me,"
and did you rush to the phone to call?
was there a voice unkind in the back of your mind
saying, "maybe... you didn't know him at all.
you didn't know him at all, oh, you didn't know ..."

well, the bells out in the church tower chime
burning clues into this heart of mine
thinking so hard on her soft eyes and the memories
offer signs that it's over... it's over...

peace.
