Sonnet – A Treat

Posted: April 13, 2010 by tammyebb in JC 1, Music, Video

Since we did all those sonnets, I thought I’d add a video, as a treat, of a song which I love.

It’s not a sonnet, but it’s got the word ‘sonnet’ in it. LOL.

But it’s a lovely song — feel free to guess why I love it so much.

For those of you who don’t know this song, I’m including the lyrics as well.

Enjoy.

Sonnet by The Verve

My friend and me
Looking through her red box of memories
Faded I’m sure
But love seems to stick in her veins you know

Yes, there’s love if you want it
Don’t sound like no sonnet, my lord
Yes, there’s love if you want it
Don’t sound like no sonnet, my lord
My lord

Why can’t you see
That nature has its way of warning me
Eyes open wide
Looking at the heavens with a tear in my eye

Yes, there’s love if you want it
Don’t sound like no sonnet, my lord
Yes, there’s love if you want it
Don’t sound like no sonnet, my lord
My lord

Sinking fast within a boat without a hull
My lord
Dreaming about the day when I can see you there
My side
By my side

Here we go again and my head is gone, my lord
I stop to say hello
‘Cause I think you should know by now
By now
By now
By now
By now
By now
Oh, by now
Oh, by now
Oh, by now
Oh, by now
