Six Months and A Day...

Until Christmas. My mum's favorite thing about her birthday (tomorrow) is that it's in the middle of the year between her favorite holiday- Christmas. She gets presents every six months at any rate. There's a tropical wave off the coast right now. Sounds happy, doesn't it? It could turn into a tropical depression, thus taking it's sadness out on the rest of us. Then turn into a storm then a hurricane. Let's hope that doesn't happen. Great dark clouds though. No strange mental ramblings to report today, unfortunately. Just my usual Saturday hour or so in Borders. Heard that song "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree"? Very interesting. Gets stuck in the head far too easy, in my opinion.

So, in honor of the song, I shall close with the lyrics.

Black Horse And The Cherry Tree
KT Tunstall

two, three, four 

(woo-hoo,woo-hoo) 
(woo-hoo,woo-hoo) 

well my heart knows me better than i know myself 
so i'm gonna let it do all the talking. 
(woo-hoo,woo-hoo) 
i came across a place in the middle of nowhere 
with a big black horse and a cherry tree. 
(woo-hoo,woo-hoo) 

i fell in fear, upon my back 
i said don't look back, just keep on walking. 
(woo-hoo,woo-hoo) 
when the big black horse that looked this way, 
said hey lady, will you marry me? 
(woo-hoo,woo-hoo) 

but i said no, no, no,no-no-no 
i said no, no, you're not the one for me 
no, no, no,no-no-no 
i said no, no, you're not the one for me 

(ooooo,woo-hoo) 

and my heart had a problem, in the early hours, 
so it stopped it dead for a beat or two. 
(woo-hoo,woo-hoo) 
but i cut some cord, and i shouldn't have done that, 
and it won't forgive me after all these years 
(woo-hoo,woo-hoo) 

so i sent her to a place in the middle of nowhere 
with a big black horse and a cherry tree. 
(woo-hoo,woo-hoo) 
now it won't come back , cause it's oh so happy 
and now i've got a hole for the world to see 
(woo-hoo,woo-hoo) 

but it said no, no, no,no-no-no 
i said no, no, you're not the one for me 
no, no, no,no-no-no 
said no, no, you're not the one for me 

(ooooo,woo-hoo) (not the one for me, yeah) 
(ooooo,woo-hoo) 
said no,no, no,no, no, no, no 
you're not the one for me 
said no,no, no,no, no, no, no 
you're not the one for me 


big black horse and a cherry tree 
i can't quite get there cause they've all forsaken me 
big black horse and a cherry tree 
i can't quite get there cause they've all forsaken me
