Theme Tune

Quite a few of the blogs I love have decided to give themselves a theme tune, fine blogs such as Obsolete, The Power of Blog, Blood & Treasure, Chicken Yogurt and many, many others.

So here is mine:



With possible closing credit music...



And here is my blog's bonus track:



Be cool to know what yours are...oh and obviously, I'm back from Paris.

I Won't Share You

I won't share you
I won't share you
With the drive
And ambition
The zeal I feel
This is my time
The note I wrote
Was read, she said
Has the Perrier gone
Straight to my head
Or is life sick and cruel, instead?
"Yes !"
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
I won't share you
I won't share you
With the drive
And the dreams inside
This is my time
Life tends to come and go
That's ok
As long as you know
Life tends to come and go
As long as you know
Know, know, know, know, know, know, know, know, know
I won't share you
I won't share you
With the drive
And the dreams inside
This is my time
I want the freedom and I want the guile
I want the freedom and the guile
Life tends to come and go
As long as you know
Know, know, know, know, know, know, know, know
I won't share you
I won't share you
I'll see you somewhere
I'll see you sometime
Darling...
