pointless nostalgic

Ain’t thinking ‘bout love today
Lost in the sunlight
Walking down memory lane

Ain’t thinking ‘bout you today
People from the past that I knew
Are slowly slipping away
Seems so long ago
Since we were carefree

Photographs lost in time are all I see
A pointless nostalgic-
That’s me
That’s me

Thoughts running round my head today
Times from the past popping up where they’re from I don’t know
Reminiscing my cares away
Wishing I could go back and change the points that were low
Till I’ve realised what life’s meant to be

Photographs lost in time are all I see
A pointless nostalgic;
That’s me
That’s me

Reminiscing my cares away
Wishing I could go back and change the points that were low
Till I’ve realised what life’s meant to be

Photographs lost in time are all I see
A pointless nostalgic;
That’s me
That’s me

It’s all I’ll ever be
It’s all I’ll ever be
Cause that’s me
It’s all I’ll ever be
Cause that’s me

This is one of the songs that hits right on; so true it hurts. I wonder why it is that I always have one foot stuck in that nostalgic quicksand. Ridding oneself of keepsakes apparently can't do all the work.

Soon it would be 8 years. 8 years. 8 years. When you are 23, 8 years feels like a lifetime. These 8 years seem to me like a interlude, a really prolonged one. I think I have fallen asleep; the painful sleep, one that makes you even more fatigue as you take more of it. I pray the music will play again, the curtain will be up soon.


pointless nostalgic is a song by Jamie Cullum, easily my favourite jazz singer :)
