my sentimental world

Am I a sentimental?

Yes.

There's at least one day in a week when I feel gloomy and sad without knowing the reason why

I remember when I was in elementary school, my parents took me to see a shrink because I always got overly sad everytime there was someone confronted me

And now when I grow up, I mostly thought this is all because I'm a Virgo

Silly, i know

But somehow, I always feel in peace everytime I have my sentimental moment

The strange-I-dont-know-why sentimental moment

Also, as always, this sentimental ears I have, found one good sad song from the soundtrack of High Fidelity

The album was amazing, really really really cool

And among those great songs, I directly stucked to track 7

Fallen For You by Sheila Nicholls

Falling for you

Did you ever see me,

Watching from periphery?

I was playing another game

I hoped you catch on all the same.

Falling from view

Did you ever touch me,

Floating through your potpourri?

I thought I felt your fingers once

After waiting all these months

But I was wrong, so wrong

That was just another song you wrote, for another girl

And I hoped the day could be

When you'd write a song for me

But it never came,

I thank you all the same,

But I'll go now, so you won't know how much I've

Fallen for you,

Pointless trying to be a man

Boy, you don't know if you can

I thought I knew you well enough

But your walls are still too tough

But I was wrong, so wrong

That was just another song you wrote, for another girl

And I hoped the day could be

When you'd write a song for me

But it never came,

I thank you all the same,

But I'll go now, so you won't know how much I

Thought about you all the time,

Walking round, the Guggenheim.

Like a rhyme, in my mind,

There you are, in my car,

But we don't drive very far.

To the beach, out of reach

Next to me... my fantasy

Falling for you

Did you ever see me,

Watching from periphery?

I was playing another game

I hoped you catch on all the same.

This song is not all about us

But I know you're not enjoying this at all

I know you're unhappy

And it makes me unhappy, seeing you unhappy

So whatever it is you think about, don't hesitate to tell me

You know I will be fine

I will always be fine.
