lovely fall away

If the mountains should…just fall away,
We’d have no more reason to stay.
Oh, why do we hide all the fun?
When all we need is to run…
Run with me, oh, lovely one.
My heart is certain. I’m ready to fall.
Just give a nod and I will know
That my imagination can flow.
You’ve got me wrapped around,
Wrapped and twirled around in you.

Paolo Nutini

I'm in love with Paolo Nutini's scratchy, soulful voice. His live performances outshine any of the prerecorded tracks I've heard and his lyrics are fantastic. He's Scottish and Italian, with a very heavy Scottish accent, which adds even more flavor to his raspy, melodic voice. There's something about this ingenue that convinces me that some people are plopped on this Earth with vocal chords to shake other's souls. Perhaps that was a bit dramatic, but when you hear a voice that brings chills all over and evokes tremendous emotion and passion with each original line, it's magic! :)
Here's my new favorite live performance of Paolo's from 2006:

let me sign - robert pattinson

<3 this song!


She was standing there by the broken tree
Her hands were all twisted she was pointing at me
I was damned by the light coming out of her eyes
She spoke with a voice that disrupted the sky
She said ' Come on over to the bitter shade,
I will wrap you in my arms and you'll know you've been saved'
Let me sign, let me sign, can't fight the devil so just let me sign.

I was out for a drink in a soho bar
The air was smoked out liked a cheap cigar
She rose out of her seat like a painted ghost
She was the woman that I wanted the most
As she reached for my arm I gave her my hand
I said 'Lay me down easy let me understand'
Let me sign, let sign, can't fight the devil so just let me sign.

As I walked through the door she was still in my head
As I entered the room she was laid there in bed
She reached out for me all twisted in black
I was on my way down, never coming back
let me sign, let me sign, can't fight the devil so just let me sign.
let me sign, let me sign, can't fight the devil so just let me sign.
