"Two Wrongs" - Wyclef Jean feat. Claudette

My heater broke a few nights ago. It just sorta conked out on me. Guess that's been the case for me lately. It's when I need something the most that it falls apart and stops working. So what does this have to do with this song? Well, let's just say it makes me feel warm. And I need that tonight. I've been needing it.

I usually don't mind the cold, but it hit me hard today and wouldn't go away. I love the rain, but it's not so fun at the crack of dawn when the sun barely peeked it's head out of the clouds and the thick fog just sat on top of it all.

And here I am, stuck in a new place for the next 4 days, and trying to make it feel like "home." Sadly, the welcome hasn't been very welcoming. It still surprises me just how inconsiderate people can be; even more so when I try to accommodate them and I'm supposed to be the "guest." I don't work well with restrictions and absolutely despise rudeness, but I have to make due with it for now. Maybe that's why I'm feeling so cold. I'm getting it from all angles and it's starting to get to me.

Let's just hope this song would thaw me out for a bit before I tackle yet another day in a mansion built in 1901 with nothing more than my wits to bear it.

Lyrics:


I'm just sittin' here playin' the guitar

City High, Claudette and 'Clef




Excuse me
If you see me screamin'
Deep in my mind
I'm only dreamin'
Cuz if I wake girl
And you're not by my side
I feel like half of me
Is no longer alive
So please shorty,
Before you walk out that door, booby
Would you listen to my song?

If only, I give you one last chance (one last chance)
Wit the devil you can no longer advance
You've got to be faithful
So we could be fruitful
Build a family
And follow God's destiny
So just before I run to the block, papi
I might listen to your song

BOO, before you walk out that door listen

They say two wrongs don't make a right
Don't make it right
So if I'm wrong, I ain't tryin' to fight
I'm tryin' to have some dinner wit some candlelight
Yeah, yea
Lay up in tha bed and make love all night
So papi I won't leave, maybe I'll just stay
But promise me that you'll do the same
Girl I'ma love you, like I never loved you
Touch me, like you never touched me
Yo, if you give me the chance girl, I'm gonna show you

Now baby, understand (I understand)
That I forgive you
But I ain't gonna forget
That you brought me a reason

Baby, baby, baby, baby
But I have grown
From a thug into a man
Built my castle with bricks,
And no longer with sand
Oh girl

Then just before I run to the block baby,
I might listen to your song

BOO, before you walk out that door listen

They say two wrongs don't make a right
Don't make it right
So if I'm wrong, I ain't tryin' to fight
I'm tryin' to have some dinner wit some candlelight
Yeah, yea
Lay up in tha bed and make love all night
So papi I won't leave, maybe I'll just stay
But promise me that you'll do the same
Girl I'ma love you, like I never loved you
Touch me, like you never touched me
Yo, if you give me the chance girl, I'm gonna show you

I'm so used to rain
That I can't see the sunshine no more
I'm so used to the pain that the
The sickness heals like a cure

But only if you gave me the keys to your soul
And let me in, I'm gonna love you over
Over
And over
Over
Again
Yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, Ohh

They say two wrongs don't make a right
Don't make it right
So if I'm wrong, I ain't tryin' to fight
I'm tryin' to have some dinner wit some candlelight
Yeah, yea
Lay up in tha bed and make love all night
So papi I won't leave, maybe I'll just stay
But promise me that you'll do the same
Girl I'ma love you, like I never loved you
Touch me, like you never touched me
Yo, if you give me the chance girl, I'm gonna show you

Show me

I aint gonna stay on tha block no more girl
I'ma come home early girl, I promise

Yea yea .. {*till fade*}

Broken

"Paradise" - Coldplay It took a while for this song to affect me, but I guess a windy drive home through an obstacle course of devastating proportions and the sudden panic of having a "State of Emergency" warning flash within my quiet hometown can change things. A lot. I didn't sleep a single minute last night. Although this isn't anything new, it's new to me to want to sleep and not get it. It was unbelievably frightening to be alone in my room with the nite-lite busted and the wind at full speed...even worse when half the roof over my head flew to the ground with a thunderous thud bringing the rest of the sleepless city to its feet. We've seen the Santa Ana winds, but never at this magnitude. It moved cars and busted windows. It rattled fences and ripped gates apart. It knocked over trashcans and picked up patio furniture like it weighed nothing. In the morning when the dust settled just enough for the hazy sun to bring some light to the mayhem, w

Soul Mates

"Once Upon A Dream" - Sleeping Beauty How funny it is that even after all these years and how far we've come with animation, this classic Disney cartoon still grabs me. Yes, I know it's silly, but it's a silly I grew up with and can't help but fall for... I know the story is so far fetched: a 16 year old girl (that looks more like a 21 year old) with gold of sunshine in her hair and lips that would shame the red, red rose sings high up in the mountain tops and suddenly attracts the man of her dreams; her soul mate! (who by golly is the prince that she has been betrothed to since she was a baby!). Unbelievable. So it's all fairytale crap, but so what? I'm not into it because of the romance! To tell you the truth, I don't even like Aurora all that much, the spoiled lil' brat. I mean, she's beautiful in EVERY way, finds out she's a princess and is going to marry into royalty on top of her royalty! I can't really sympathize... Seriousl

Welcome to People

Songs TBA Last night, I saw a special, private screening courtesy of the Screening Exchange called, "Welcome to People" directed by Alex Kurtzman. I loved it and it wasn't something that I thought I'd love. In fact, I almost changed my mind at the last minute when I saw that familiar long line down the steps at Arclight Paseo. I figured, "Hell it's just another movie." But I'm so glad I didn't turn around. I'm glad I stood in the back of the line, got my hand stamped and cell phone taken away for nearly 3-hours in order to be in a room filled with strangers. I just wish I had something with me to write down the great songs I heard that disappeared by the time I logged onto this blog. It makes me appreciate technology...so check it out when it comes out. I'll make sure I have my cell phone handy the next time I see it so I can grab some songs along the way. Oh, I'm Hannah, not Frankie and let me know what you think.
