Here's my all time fave "our tune" from when I was away in the Navy -

Self indulgent I know - Post your own.... Very Happy

HOME THOUGHTS FROM ABROAD - CLIFFORD T WARD

I could be a millionaire if I had the money
I could own a mansion, no I don't think I'd like that
But I might write a song that makes you laugh, now that would be funny
And you could tell your friends in England you'd like that
But now I've chosen aeroplanes and boats to come between us
And a line or two on paper wouldn't go amiss
How is Worcestershire? Is it still the same between us?
Do you still use television to send you fast asleep?
Can you last another week? Does the cistern still leak?
Or have you found a man to mend it?
Oh, and by the way, how's your broken heart?
Is that mended too? I miss you
I miss you, I really do.

I've been reading Browning, Keats and William Wordsworth
And they all seem to be saying the same thing for me
Well I like the words they use, and I like the way they use them
You know, Home Thoughts From Abroad is such a beautiful poem
And I know how Robert Browning must have felt
'Cause I'm feeling the same way about you
Wondering what you're doing and if you need some help
Do I still occupy your mind? Am I being so unkind?
Do you find it very lonely, or have you found someone to laugh with?
Oh, and by the way, are you laughing now?
'Cause I'm not, I miss you
I miss you, I really do.

I really do.

This was 'our tune' before it was made, purely cause there's a Franky Knuckles sample in it, that we both loved. When THIS version came out we decided it was 'our tune'.

'im indoors played it down the phone to me the other day, while he was in his car, and I was in the bath - we hadn't seen each other for a couple of days, cause he was working away. I blubbed like a baby (I was hormonal though so it's forgivable).

Candi Statten and Source - You Got The Love

Sometimes I feel like
Throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying
Lord I just don't care
But you've got the love I need
To see me through

Sometimes it seems that
The going is just too rough
And things go wrong
No matter what I do
Now and then I feel
That life is just too much
But you've got the love
I need to see me through

When food is gone
You are my daily meal
When friends are gone I know
My saviour's love is real
Your love is real

Every once in a while
I say Lord I can't go on
Every once in a while
I get to feeling blue
Every once in a while
it seems like I am all alone
But you got the love
I need to see me through

Occasionally
my thoughts are brave and friends are few
Occasionally
I cry out Lord what must I do
Occasionally
I call up Master make me new
You've got the love
I need to see me through

Sometimes I feel like
Throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying
Lord I just don't care
But you've got the love I need
To see me through

my "our tune"for me and my 3 best friend, emma, gema and hannah is Green eyes by Coldplay. its not exactly an old song but we all bought the album when things with us were really good. things arent so good now, but i still love this song, reminds me of last year.

Honey you are a rock
upon which i stand
and i came here to talk
i hope you understand

the green eyes
yeah the sparklight
shines upon you.
and how could
anybody deny you?

i came here with a load
and it feels so much lighter
now i met you
and honey you should know
that i could never go on without you

green eyes

honey you are the sea
upon which i float
and i came here to talk
i think you should know

the green eyes
you're the one that i wanted to find
and anyone who'd try to deny you
must be out of their mind

cause i came here with a load
and it feels so much lighter since i met you
and honey you should know
that i could never go on without you

green eyes

i have green eyes too! the only person in my tuor who had green eyes! anyway that is my "our tune" and i can barely listen to it without crying... simpler times.....

I have green eyes too - my dentist assures me that she only sees about 1 pair a month, so they're pretty unusual. Mr Boo keeps trying to tell me that they're hazel, but he's wrong. Men know nothing about colours anyway! Twisted Evil

I think my 'our tune'...is:

Shellac - Prayer to God.

'To the one true god above, here is my prayer,
Not the first you've heard, but the first I wrote,
Not the first but the others, were a long time ago.

There are two people here, and I want you to kill them,
Her - she can go quietly, by disease or a blow,
To the base of her neck, where her necklaces close,
Where her garments come together, where I used to lay my face,
That's where you ought to kill her, in that particular place.

Him - just f*cking kill him, I don't care if it hurts.
Yes I do, I want it to,
f*cking kill him but first
make him cry like a woman,
(no particular woman),
let him hold out, hold back
(someone or other might come and f*****g kill him).
f*****g kill him.

F*cking kill him, f*cking kill him,
Kill him already, kill him.
F*cking kill him, f*cking kill him,
Kill him already, kill him.
Just f*cking kill him! F*cking kill him,
F*cking kill him already, kill him.
Ah F*cking kill him, f*cking kill him,
Kill him already, kill him.
Kill him already, kill him already
Kill him, f*cking kill him.
Just f*cking kill him, f*ckin kill him,
Kill him already, kill him.
F*ckin kill him, kill him,
F*cking kill him already, kill him.

Kill him, f*cking kill him,
Kill him, just f*cking kill him.
Kill them already, kill them already,
Kill him.
Amen.

Well being a bit of an old romantic, this was our tune when I was with my first wife:-

The Night: Nights In White Satin
Nights in white satin,
Never reaching the end,
Letters I've written,
Never meaning to send.

Beauty I'd always missed
With these eyes before,
Just what the truth is
I can't say anymore.

'Cause I love you,
Yes, I love you,
Oh, how, I love you.

Gazing at people,
Some hand in hand,
Just what I'm going thru
They can understand.

Some try to tell me
Thoughts they cannot defend,
Just what you want to be
You will be in the end,

And I love you,
Yes, I love you,
Oh, how, I love you.
Oh, how, I love you.

Nights in white satin,
Never reaching the end,
Letters I've written,
Never meaning to send.

Beauty I'd always missed
With these eyes before,
Just what the truth is
I can't say anymore.

'Cause I love you,
Yes, I love you,
Oh, how, I love you.
Oh, how, I love you.

'Cause I love you,
Yes, I love you,
Oh, how, I love you.
Oh, how, I love you.

A year ago a very good friend of mine died ( by Aids)
this was our tune

Sometimes When We Touch

You ask me if I love you
And I choke on my reply
I’d rather hurt you honestly
Than mislead you with a lie
And who am I to judge you
In what you say or do
I’m only just beginning
To see the real you

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty’s too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I want to hold you till I die
Till we both break down and cry
I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides

Romance and all it’s strategy
Leaves me battling with my pride
But through all the insecurity
Some tenderness survives
I’m just another writer
Still trapped within my truth
A hesitant prize fighter
Still trapped within my youth

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty’s too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I want to hold you till I die
Till we both break down and cry
I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides

At times I’d like to break you
And drive you to your knees
At times I’d like to break through
And hold you endlessly
At times I understand you
And I know how hard you try
I watched while love commands you
And I’ve watched love pass you by
At times I think we’re drifters
Still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister
But then the passion flares again

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty’s too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I want to hold ya till I die
Till we both break down and cry
I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides

My "our tune" is "stuck in the middle", by steelers wheel

Well I dont know
why I came here tonight
got the feeling that
something ain't right
I'm so scared in case
I fall of my chair
and I'm wondering
how I'll get down stairs

Clowns to the left of me
Jokers to the right
Here I am
stuck in the middle with you

Yes I'm stuck in the middle with you
and i dont know what it is
I should do
It's so hard to keep this smile
from my face
yeah I'm loosing it all over the place

Clowns to the left of me
Jokers to the right
here I am
stuck in the middle with you

Well you started of
with nothing
and your proud that
your a self made man
and your friends
they all come calling
Slap you on the back
and say
Ple..ee...ee...ee..eease

Etc

it's not very romantic, but it say's alot about our sense of humor...and our drinking binges. Very Happy

This is 'our tune' with my ex, ex, ex boyfriend

DREAM A LITTLE DREAM OF ME

Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper "I love you"
Birds singin' in the sycamore tree
Dream a little dream of me

Say nighty-night and kiss me
Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me
While I'm alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me

Stars fading but I linger on dear
Still craving your kiss
I'm longing to linger till dawn dear
Just saying this

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me
