Soooo, I've decided that this song pretty much sums up my experience of being on night watch on Catbird. Lyrics by (yes, I'm serious.... ) 
Avril Lavigne

I'm With You

I'm standin' on the bridge
I'm waitin' in the dark
I thought that you'd be here by now
There's nothing but the rain
No footsteps on the ground
I'm listening but there's no sound

Isn't anyone tryin' to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home?
It's a damn cold night
I'm tryin' to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand?
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I'm, I'm with you
I'm with you
Hmm hmm hmm

I'm looking for a place
I'm searching for a face
Is anybody here I know?
'Cause nothing's going right
And everything's a mess
And no one likes to be alone

Isn't anyone tryin' to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home?
It's a damn cold night
I try to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand?
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I'm, I'm with you
I'm with you
Yea yea

Oh, why is everything so confusing?
Maybe I'm just out of my mind
Yea eee yeah, yea eee yeah
Yea yee yea, yea eee yeah,yeah

It's a damn cold night
Tryin' to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand?
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I'm, I'm with you, yea
I'm with you, yea

Take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I'm, I'm with you, yea
I'm with you, yea

Take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I'm, I'm with you, oh
I'm with you
I'm with you

  1. Avril got it so right again! Wish things didn't have to be so com-plic-ated:)

  2. Laura, that one was especially for you... I knew you'd appreciate the avril reference. Miss you SO much. Mel & I mention your name at least once a day. I can't even tell you how many times I say, "Oh my god. What would Laura say..." We have so many ridiculous stories to tell you. I know we're gonna catch up one of these days during one of our epic strolls. I'm honored you think of me at our sunset spot. I can't wait to see you again.... Love you so much and hope you are serenely happy. Or at least a lighter shade :)
    P.s. Went to Sarafina's on St Marten and made a short video clip in your honor. Spent a fortune on baguettes, croissants and gelato. Yummmm!
