I call you / from the comet's cradle

everything's almost making me cry today

--cuddling
--the scene in a Norwegian/Swedish movie called Kitchen Stories where a man puts a blanket over another man who's sleeping
--a scene in the same movie where a man tells another man "Now it's time for coffee."
--the lyrics to "Boys Like Me" by Paul Baribeau

my parents made me
in 1980
and i was born in the hot hot summer
i loved my parents
my parents loved me
but they just couldnt love each other
broken hearted boys like me are everywhere you look
broken hearted boys like me are everywhere you look
i had a puppy
i named her odie
but we had to put her down last summer
she was my best friend
when i moved to grand ledge
but she had a stroke and couldnt even walk
but broken hearted boys like me are everywhere you look
broken hearted boys like me are everywhere you look
i had a girlfriend
a pretty brown haired girlfriend
but something awful happened to us one summer
we both got real sad
and by the spring time
we forgot how to love each other
broken hearted boys like me are everywhere you look
broken hearted boys like me are everywhere you look
theres no moral to the story
its just my story and i hope i havent wasted too much of your time
its just a song i sing
cause song singing makes me happy
i wish that were true
i wish everyone were happy
but broken hearted boys like me are everywhere you look
broken hearted boys like me are everywhere you look
