Tuesday
There is a Saturday blog and a Sunday one. I was suggested to do a Monday one. There are some great songs about Monday but I want to do a Tuesday one.Reasons for a Tuesday. Well Monday is over for this week and one of my favourite bands wrote about Tuesday mornings. Their song Fairytale in New York is my favourite song but today let's talk about Tuesday.
As I can't post the video as I haven't learnt how to from a mobile here goes the lyrics.
Too many sad days
Too many Tuesday mornings
I thought of you today
I wished it was yesterday morning
I thought of you today
I dreamt you were dressed in mourning
But I knew that you
WIth your heart beating
And your eyes shining
Would be dreaming of me
Lying with you
On a Tuesday morning
I fell through the window
And I found that I was still breathing
I thought of tomorrow
And the fear that you might leave me
I thought of tomorrow
And I wished it was Monday morning
Turn your face from me
And I will cover myself with sorrow
Bring hell down upon me
I will surrender my heart to sorrow
Bring hell down upon me
And I will say goodbye tomorrow

Spencer showed no remorse for her crime; her full explanation for her actions was "I don't like Mondays. ......

I am familiar with that story...it is a shame that the US is still dealing with such events...
I do enjoy true crime novels and videos...interesting stuff...

Sometimes you don't remember the words to a song till you hear the melody. I just like music
You'll have to post it as I can't on this tablet
No-one seems to have posted Ruby Tuesday - I prefer Melanie's version to the Rolling Stones
"There's no time to lose, " I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away
here's mine
I love Rod Stewart
good to see you back here and blogging...
"Something, calls to me,
The trees are drawing me near,
I've got to find out why"
I'm looking at myself, reflections of my mind,
It's just the kind of day to leave myself behind,
gently swaying thru the fairy-land of love,
