Hi anyone who bothers to read this-
I'm sorry, but this isn't a new chapter to my story. I had intended the story to be over and inconclusive, and I know that's frustrating, but that's Snape. However, I do have a rather nasty little idea that may be a good sequel... I'm not sure about it yet, am running it through my brain and do not at the moment have time to write it.
This is merely a song that I have always liked, and which I thought fitting for the feelings evoked at the end of my story (for me, anyway). The version I love is sung by Cassandra Wilson (oh boy. If you don't know this brilliant jazz/blues soloist, then get to know her. She sings sooo beautifully). Get a copy of it if you can- it's very soulful, the composition of it. Anyway, thought you'd like it. I forget who wrote it, so I apologise for not putting a credit in.
PS To all the people who reviewed- I LOVE YOU!!! No, I mean that. Really. If I don't get a review, I don't know that someone's read my story. So in my little world, only 8 people have read this, and that makes me feel a little sad. Sorry. Go ahead, read.
YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT LOVE IS
You don't know
What love is
Until you've learned the meaning of the blues,
Until you've loved the love you had to lose,
You don't know what love is.
You don't know how lips hurt
Until you've kissed and had to pay the cost,
Until you've flipped your heart and you have lost
You don't know what love is.
Do you know how a lost heart fears
The thought of reminiscing?
And how lips that taste of tears
Lose their taste for kissing...
You don't know how hearts burn
For love that cannot live yet never dies,
Until you reached each dawn with sleepless nights
You don't know what love is.
You don't know what love is
Until you've learned the meaning of the blues,
Until you've learned the love you had to lose,
You don't know
What love is.
