Well, the bells out in the church tower chime, Burning clues into this heart of mine.

Artist- Jeff Buckley
Song of the day- Last Goodbye

The song that ignited my passion for Jeff Buckley was the first time I heard today's song. I couldn't wait to seem him live, somehow get him to fall in love with me and force him to sing to me forever. Then I soon discovered he had died a tragic mysterious death and so died my short star crossed dream. Yet even in a badly made 90's video and grunge theme,his ability to feel a song and hit those heart quivering notes still translates. Even though he seems to be initiating the goodbye he somehow convincingly makes me feel sad for him. It's about running through all the reasons you don't want to say goodbye but knowing you should do it. Boo to goodbyes, but always yes to Jeff Buckley goodbyes, swoon.



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.

Well, this is our last embrace,
Must I dream and always see your face?
Why can't we overcome this wall?
Baby, maybe it's just because I didn't know you at all.

Kiss me, please kiss me,
But kiss me out of desire, babe, and not consolation.
Oh, 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.
