I have had KT Tunstall’s Throw Me a Rope in my head all day today:
(photo from a recent flight, my version of O’Keeffe’s Above The Clouds)
I want you between me and the feeling I get when I miss you
But everything here is telling me I should be fine…
I got used to you whispering things to me into the evening
We followed the sun and its colours and left this world…
So throw me a rope to hold me in place
Show me a clock for counting my days down
Cause everything’s easier when you’re beside me
Come back and find me, cause I feel alone
And whenever you go it’s like holding my breath underwater
I have to admit that I kind of like it when I do…
