In the heat of summer pleasure winter fades..

Don't know why but I couldn't get this song out of my head today..

I've never heard of Janis Ian before (baru tau nama dia bila try google tadi) and my only knowledge of the song is from Shiina Ringo's cover version of it back when I was in Japan (last trip in 2002).. maybe you guys could search the net and download the song from somewhere.. or if you have the MP3, please share it with me ;)

LOVE IS BLIND
by
JANIS IAN

LOVE IS BLIND
LOVE IS ONLY SORROW
LOVE IS NO TOMORROW
SINCE YOU WENT AWAY
LOVE IS BLIND
HOW WELL I REMEMBER
IN THE HEAT OF SUMMER PLEASURE
WINTER FADES

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE
BEFORE I CAN'T REMEMBER
MEMORIES I SHOULD FORGET
I'VE BEEN BURNING
SINCE THE DAY WE MET

LOVE IS BLIND
LOVE IS WITHOUT A MERCY
LOVE IS "NOW YOU'VE HURT ME"
"NOW YOU'VE GONE AWAY"
LOVE IS BLIND
LOVE IS NO HORIZON
AND I'M SLOWLY DYING
HERE IN YESTERDAY

IN THE MORNING
WAKEN TO THE SOUND OF WEEPING
SOMEONE ELSE SHOULD WEEP FOR ME
NOW IT'S OVER
LOVER, LET ME BE

LOVE IS BLIND
LOVE IS YOUR CARESS
LOVE IS TENDERNESS
AND MOMENTARY PAIN
LOVE IS BLIND
HOW WELL I REMEMBER
IN THE HEAT OF SUMMER PLEASURE
WINTER FADES



Shiina Ringo once said that you could switch "Love" with "Life" in this song and it would still make sense.. Hmmmmmm....

Love is ... you. (",)

Love is a baby that learns to crawl, eating dirts, walk, then falls down for she have weak knees, stand up again, learning to speak, then cannot stop talking, make friends, goes to school, become rebellious, have identity crisis, goes to college, learn things, finding ways, became matured, learned responsibilities, take up commitments and later in the end, went back to square one, learn to walk for the knees grown weak once again and falling have become something it tries not to do but am holding firmly to someone or something to stand up and keep walking.

A wise sensei once said, "Love is only a feeling".. I guess sometimes we just over react.. :)
