Suppose...

Hello, my dear reader(s)!

Wherever you may be on the globe, let me share a song that inebriates my subconscious whenever I am sad. Perhaps it will be your earworm henceforth. Beautifully crafted, the only tangible measure of its context is the extent to which your keyboard is soaked by the time you get to the end.

When one draws a sword, bloodshed is expected. When two bear arms, it invariably results in casualties. The pilferage is consequential to none but those involved.

It cuts & works both ways, ifyou You get what I mean.


Suppose I call you up tonight,
And told you that I love you.
And suppose I said I wanna come back home.
And suppose I cried and said I think I finally learnt my lesson,
And I'm tired of spending all my time alone.

If I told you that I realised you're all I ever wanted,
And it's killing me to be so far away.
Would you tell me that you love me too?
And would we cry together?
Or would you simply laugh at me and say,

"I told you so. I told you so.
I told you someday you'd come crawling back
And asking me to take you in.
I told you so, but you had to go.
Now I've finally found someone new
And you would never break my heart in two again."

If I got down on my knees and told you I was yours forever,
Would you get down on yours too and take my hand?
Would we get that old time feeling?
Would we laugh and talk for hours,
The way we did when our love first began?

Would you tell me that you've missed me too
And that you've been so lonely?
And you've waited for the day that I'd return?
And we'd live and love forever
And that I'm your one and only
Would you say that the tables finally turn?


Would you say,
"I told you so. I told you so.
I told you someday you'd come crawling back
And asking me to take you in.
I told you so, but you had to go.
Now I've finally found someone new
And you would never break my heart in two again."
