lovely lyrics

I've written before in this blog about lyrics that I really liked. In today's entry, I'm including lyrics from the song 'Pretty Ballerina' by the Left Banke, one of two songs that I pointed out in my previous entry:

I called her yesterday,
It should have been tomorrow

I could not keep
The joy that was inside

I begged for her to tell me
If she really loved me

Somewhere a mountain is moving
Afraid its moving without me

by Michael Brown


How gorgeous is that?

Prior to typing today's entry, I did a little looking around the Internet for these lyrics and I guess I missed some of the meaning behind those last couple of lines - they can be interpreted as being akin to 'feeling the Earth move.' Wow! And I just knew that I liked them.
