Kathy Mattea - Where've You Been? (live)


Claire had all but given up,
When she and Edwin fell in love.
She touched his face and shook her head.
In disbelief, she sighed and said:
"In many dreams I've held you near,
"Now, at last, you're really here.

"Where've you been?
I've looked for you forever and a day.
Where've you been?
I'm just not myself when you're away."

He asked her for her hand for life,
And she became a salesman's wife.
He was home each night by eight,
But one stormy evening, he was late.
Her frightened tears fell to the floor,
Until his key turned in the door.

"Where've you been?
I've looked for you forever and a day.
Where've you been?
I'm just not myself when you're away."

They'd never spent a night apart.
For sixty years, she heard him snore.
Now they're in a hospital,
In separate beds on different floors.

Claire soon lost her memory,
Forgot the names of family.
She never spoke a word again,
Then one day, they wheeled him in.
He held her hand and stroked her hair,
In a fragile voice she said:

"Where've you been?
I've looked for you forever and a day.
Where've you been?
I'm just not myself when you're away."
No, I'm just not myself when you're away."

2:45 am by Elliott Smith
The Weakness in Me - Joan Armatrading
Those Three Days - Lucinda Williams
Band of Gold - Freda Payne

But the song that really rips the heart out of me is "Elusive Dreams" sung by Tammy Wynette and George Jones. I was wondering through London Drugs one day, innocently listening to my iPod, the song came on unexpectedly and I started to weap in the middle of the oral hygiene section. Very embarrassing.

Mushy: Mariah Carey - Open Arms
Sad: Maybe Vanessa Carlton - Afterglow
Depressing: (Maybe) Vanessa Carlton - The Wreckage

The last two could probably be interchanged though.

Sad song from the movie 'Set It Off'
Perfect song for that film


Now that you're gone, every day I go on
But life's just not the same
I'm so empty inside, and my tears I can't hide
But I'll try, I'll try to face the pain
