I started this morning with Washing of the Water by Peter Gabriel, but just could NOT do that today.
Great song though, give it a try. I flipped through other Peter Gabriel songs, The Veil is excellent too.
Biko is wonderful but too heavy with the news of the world today.
But since I was completely feeling Peter Gabriel today. MY very very favorite song by Peter Gabriel is one of the best known. This is due to the film Say Anything (the iconic scene was originally supposed to be an Elvis Costello song he declined and thank you for that Mr. Costello)
It still brings me to tears but in a welling up of the soul not sorrow. Doesn't everyone want to be loved like that, where someone can see everything in your eyes- the light the heat, to be that ultimate place of peace where you can lay everything you are in the outside would down and be.. just be. (ok there's your BDSM slant on the piece) So today's song is In Your Eyes by Peter Gabriel
The video is from the Secret World tour (I got to see this live and OMG)
In Your Eyes - Peter Gabriel (radio edit)
Love I get so lost, sometimes
Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
When I want to run away
I drive off in my car
But whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are
All my instincts, they return
And the grand facade, so soon will burn
Without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside
In your eyes
The light the heat
In your eyes
I am complete
In your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
In your eyes
The resolution of all the fruitless searches
In your eyes
I see the light and the heat
In your eyes
Oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light
The heat I see in your eyes
Love, I don't like to see so much pain
So much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive
And all my instincts, they return
And the grand facade, so soon will burn
Without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside
In your eyes
The light the heat
In your eyes
I am complete
In your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
In your eyes
The resolution of all the fruitless searches
In your eyes
I see the light and the heat
In your eyes
Oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light,
The heat I see in your eyes
In your eyes, in your eyes
In your eyes, in your eyes
In your eyes, in your eyes
