The Lucksmiths
Sunlight in a Jar
We’ve never been much chop at all that sensual stuff
One of us always seems to stop before the other’s had enough
Like a self-help manual that’s been written in Braille
It seems the more that we touch, the more we learn about our failings
I’m struck speechless by the nape of your neck
But your requests and suggestions have a similar effect
A litany of prettiness and pettiness too
I reckon every second second we come up with something new
I tried to write an opera for us
But I didn’t get that far
’Cause trying to sum you up in song
Is like catching sunlight in a jar
Complex, completely credible love
The kind that is made not handed to you from above
Is difficult to talk about and harder to write
Like the rhythm of a pulse, or the contours of firelight
Overblown libretto and a sumptuous score
Could never contain the contradictions I adore
We can just be chaos and then something aligns
It’s so hard to contain, maintain it or define it
I tried to write another chorus
But I didn’t get that far
’Cause trying to sum you up in song
Is like catching sunlight in a jar
It’s like catching sunlight in a jar

I just want to tell you guys
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!
I never realized that this blog can reach the far ends of the world (I live in the Philippines and have not traveled abroad except to Hong Kong). To see that people from all over the world visit this little space in the interwebs made my heart swell.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

twas a crazy week!
Hi guys! Sooo sorry for the lack of updates last week. It was CUH-RAZY! We were preparing for the Halloween celebration (which was yesterday) in the office and we had to do props and backgrounds for the team. I didn't have my own camera but fortunately somebody with a kickass digital slr
clicked the night away (and I think I photobombed a lot of pics there hehehehehe) so I will be showing you the craziness that ensued yesterday. It was fuuuuuuunnn!!! Photos later, once I got ahold of a computer with Facebook access so I can swipe the pics. Laters!! ;)
Ok here's a preview. Hahaha!

today's music is brought to you by
The Smiths
This Charming Man
A punctured bicycle
On a hillside desolate
Will nature make a man of me yet ?
When in this charming car
This charming man
Why pamper life's complexity
When the leather runs smooth
On the passenger seat ?
I would go out tonight
But I haven't got a stitch to wear
This man said "It's gruesome that someone so handsome should care"
A jumped up pantry boy
Who never knew his place
He said "return the ring"
He knows so much about these things
He knows so much about these things
I would go out tonight
But I haven't got a stitch to wear
This man said "It's gruesome that someone so handsome should care"
Na, na-na, na-na, na-na, this charming man ...
Na, na-na, na-na, na-na, this charming man ...
A jumped up pantry boy
Who never knew his place
He said "return the ring"
He knows so much about these things
He knows so much about these things
He knows so much about these things
