You Will Learn To Fall In Love Again

So I'm working on the mix of "Since There Was You And Me" and it's getting better...I guess that's what I'm learning...it all takes time...and I talked to Brian a bit Saturday about it and he was like, "You're gonna have to work like in anything else and when you work in the real world, you'll be learning more than the school studios' setup." That and the slice of humble pie I've been swallowing this week has been helping me live life...I'm discovering some friends were just using me to help their band move forward...other friends are really friends...some loves don't work and some do, you've just got to wait for your time and be okay if it never does...there's more to life...

While "Since There Was You And Me" is getting better in the studio, I'm putting the finishing touches on a new tune in the practice room...and it's looking like I've topped myself yet again...this one's called "You Will Learn To Fall In Love Again"...it's about friends taking care of eachother when relationships fall through. I started writing this about a year ago when I woke up and opened my door and a good friend of mine was passed out on my doormat. He found out his longtime girlfriend was pregnant with someone else's kid. He had remained faithful to her and chaste, and she proved to be a whore. He tried to drink the pain away but it still hurt so much he tried to find someone to talk to and didn't want to wake me up and passed out while deliberating. Later, another friend's bride-to-be left him 3 days before their wedding. I could tell the next 5 stories, but it'd be depressing. Long story short...I wrote this song about all of us guys who had to be there for eachother when the whores we once called girlfriends broke us. Here's the rough lyrics so far:

You Will Learn To Fall In Love Again

R.Kim

I wake up to a nosiy street,
pick you and your bottle off the floor.
I try so hard not to stand there,
and wonder what happened the night before.

She left you...
you left there...
and somehow ended up at my door.

If you need to get away,
know that you can stay,
beyond this doorstep anytime.
If you need to cry away,
all the hurt and the pain,
get back up and walk...
you will learn to fall in love again.

There's more lyrics but I can't remember them right now...

Anyway, back to my psych essay, and then a Western Civ. video response paper...then a digital photo project...AH!

Later,
-Rod
