A Conversation With John Lodge

This idea was mine originally, but Lady Starlight stole it last week...and I'm stealing it back.

Have you ever heard a song and just had to reply to the lyrics? (At least in your head?)

OK, it's probably a genetic defect in my sister and I, but at least be amused by the twisted workings of our brains.

The Lodgey song I'm talking back to?

Well, it's not Words You Say, because I did that one in October last year. Click here to read it.

Today, I'm talking back to Isn't Life Strange: My responses will be in italics

Isn't life strange
(well that's very observant of you Lodgey)
A turn of the page
Can read like before
Can we ask for more?
(Yes we can. We can ask for lots more)
Each day passes by
How hard man will try?
The sea will not wait

You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry -
(Aw don't cry Lodgey!)
Wished I could be in your heart
(Aw...you can)
To be one with your love
(I'm liking this idea of being one with Lodgey)
Wished I could be in your eyes
(In my eyes? Why?)
Looking back there you were, and here we are.

Isn't love strange
(That's a given Lodgey)
A word we arrange
(To suit our own purposes..yes)
With no thought or care
(Again...you are a genius for realizing that)
Maker of despair
(You're not going to cry again are you?)
Each breath that we breathe
With love we must weave
To make us as one
(Keep talking Lodgey, you've got me interested)
You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry
(Aw..please please please don't cry Lodgey)

Wished I could be in your heart
(You can Lodgey...honest, just don't cry anymore)
To be one with your love
(I'm ready willing and able to be one with your love)
Wished I could be in your eyes
(Why?)
Looking back there you were, and here we are.

Isn't life strange
(Most definitely)
A turn of the page
A book without light
(You're getting strange here Lodgey)
Unless with love we write;
To throw it away
(What are we throwing away?)
To lose just a day
The quicksand of time
You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry -
(Please stop crying!!!)

Wished I could be in your heart
(We've been through this already)
To be one with your love
(I'm still waiting)
Wished I could be in your eyes
Looking back there you were:

And here is Lodgey!



That's probably how he'd look after we finished this conversation.
