LYRICS (by Charley Wu) What do you do (Oh Lord!) When she don’t love you? (No she don’t) I’ve burned all my bridges (All of my roads) Set fire to my memories too (too) And I’ll still hold on (hold on) To all of your things (all of your things) The ashes of your beauty (of your beauty) Haunt my dreams So don’t you Lead me to destruction It happens all the time When you come to mind And I’ll climb thousands of mountains, walk deserts alone Brave the waves of the sea, for my sins I’ll atone Miss the fire in your eyes, I used to see every night But if there’s hope for my soul, then I’d better, I’d better go Leave my troubles, behind Cause sometimes There’s still love, love, love In your eyes Darling have you heard my voice It rings out Even Louder Than before By the light of the moon (full moon) Always there’s temptation (ahhhhhh) A desire to believe (to believe) You could lead me to salvation (ohhhhhh!) And I'll still hold on (hold on) To all of your things (all of your things) The ashes of your beauty (of your beauty) Haunting my dreams | For this song, I asked my friend Monika to help me make three illustrations. The concept was to make (anti) Valentine’s cards that are actually truthful, with messages carrying all the ambiguity, uncertainty, and complexity of a real romantic situation. ”Be my Valentine’s” means nothing. ”You can lead me to destruction” means a whole lot more. - Charley |
