Hanging on her every word.
Kings and queens never saw such a fuss
Servants are waiting to serve

Sally Ann Sally Ann
Oh when you dance
Every move that you make is amazing
Take my heart, take my hand,
Hey Sally Ann,
Life will be all that you make it.

I must have got caught in your hair so bright,
Lost in your eyes so blue.
I followed around in circles all night
For a chance to dance with you.

Sally Ann Sally Ann
Oh when you dance
Every move that you make is amazing
Take my heart, take my hand,
Hey Sally Ann,
Life will be all that you make it.

It breaks my heart to see her cry.
I'm a fool for her that's for sure.
You see me swallowing my pride.
She's got me crawling on the floor.

Sally Ann Sally Ann
Oh when you dance
Every move that you make is amazing
Take my heart, take my hand,
Hey Sally Ann,
Life will be all that you make it.

Sally Ann Sally Ann
Oh when you dance
Every move that you make is amazing
Take my heart, take my hand,
Hey Sally Ann,
Life will be all, life will be all, life will be all that you make it.

"Hey, come this May
We'll be runnin in the sun again,
Your time will come.
Your just a young broken heart
I'll be sleepin in the yard
How could you be so dumb?

All we losers stand in line,
just waiting for our time.
Broken angel take that plane
And finger paint the sky!
Till everything shines!
Everything shines! x3

Oh, broken clock, havent heard your
Old tick tock in there for much too long
And lonely juke box in the corner
Of a night club and I need your song

All we losers stand in line,
just waiting for our time.
Broken angel take that plane
And finger paint the sky!
Till everything shines!
Everything shines! x3

All we losers stand in line,
just waiting for our time.
Broken angel take that plane
And finger paint the sky!
Till everything shines!
Everything shines! x3"

"Girl, don't tell me that it's morning
Can we keep the curtains drawn?
I haven't given you fair warning.
But our ship, she sails at dawn...

And
It's true I must be going,
But I swear I won't be long.
There isn't that much ocean
between Boston and St. John's.
I'm a rover and I'm bound to sail away
I'm a rover can you love me anyway?

And if some suitor comes approaching,
Will you let him through your door?
And what if I return half broken?
Will you still want me anymore?

And
It's true I must be going,
But I swear I won't be long.
There isn't that much ocean
between Boston and St. John's.
I'm a rover and I'm bound to sail away
I'm a rover can you love me anyway?

Close your eyes and dream.
Tell me what you see.
Tell me what you want!
Just tell me that you'll wait for me!!!

But oh
Don't tell me that it's morning.
Can we keep the curtains drawn?
I haven't given you fair warning,
but our ship, she sails at dawn...

And it's true I must be going,
But I swear I won't be long.
There isn't that much ocean
between Boston and St. John's.
I'm a rover and I'm bound to sail away
I'm a rover can you love me anyway?"

I am a mountain
I am a tall tree
Ohhh, I am a swift wind
Sweepin' the country
I am a river
Down in the valley
Ohhh, I am a vision
And I can see clearly
If anybody asks u who I am
Just stand up tall look 'em in the Face and say

[Chorus]
I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
Hey, I made it
I'm the worlds greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my backs against the ropes
I can feel it mmm
I'm the worlds greatest

I am a giant
I am an eagle
I am a lion
Down in the jungle
I am a marchin' band
I am the people
I am a helpin' hand
And I am a hero
If anybody asks u who I am
Just stand up tall look 'em in the Face and say

[Chorus]
I'm that star up in the sky
I'm that mountain peak up high
I made it
I'm the worlds greatest
And I'm that little bit of hope
When my backs against the ropes
I can feel it
I'm the worlds greatest

- Hey Leonardo (She Likes Me for Me)
---------------------------------
She don't care about my car
She don't care about my money
And that's real good because I don't got alot to spend
But if I did it wouldn't mean nothin'

She likes me for me
Not because I look like Tyson Beckford
With the charm of Robert Redford
Oozing out my ears
But what she sees
Are my faults and indecisions
My insecure conditions
And the tears upon the pillow that I shed

She don't care about my big screen
Or my collection of DVD's
Things like that just never mattered much to her
Plus she don't watch to much t.v.

And she don't care that I can fly her
To places she ain't never been
But if she really wants to go
I think deep down she knows that
All she has to say is when

She likes me for me
Not because I hang with Leonardo
Or that guy who played in "Fargo"
I think his name is Steve
She's the one for me
And I just can't live without her
My arms belong around her
And I'm so glad I found her once again

And I'm so glad I found her once again
And I'm so glad I found her once again
Gazing at the ceiling
as we entertain our feelings in the dark
The things that we're afraid of are gonna show us
what we're made of in the end

She likes me for me
Not because I sing like Pavarotti
Or because I am such a hottie
I like her for her
Not because she's phat like Cindy Crawford
She has got so much to offer
Why does she waste all her time with me
There must be something there that I don't see

She likes me for me
Not because I'm tough like Dirty Hairy
Make her laugh just like Jim Carrey
Unlike the Cable Guy
But what she sees
Is that I can't live without her
My arms belong around her
And I'm so glad I found her once again
Found her once again
I'm so glad I found her once again
On again

birdmad small, dark and ridiculously hot, as i remember. Drove a classic Mustang

we were in Constitutional Law pt 1 and Rules of Evidence pt. 2 together...

to my regret, we never did get past the flirting stage, but i was neck-deep in my bad behaviour and, in my book, she was too nice to wnat to mess around with someone like me.

it's funny the things that pop out from memory's deeper recesses...an acquaintance of one semester of college from 14 years ago


hah.

i'm a ridiculous old bird sometimes.

TheRealMJ "Who is this Sally Ann?" she asked, which Mike had so hoped she would. But Aviva couldn't possibly understand what he was going through, though he wanted to talk about it so much.

"It's a song, about a guy who's head over heels for Sally Ann but has no idea how she feels about him."

And Mike truly believed that she had little or no feelings for him. It saddened him, but hey, she kept coming around to hang out, so maybe eventually she would realize that she did indeed love him back.

He had no reason to believe her, but Sally Ann did give instructions, and Mike always followed her instructions. "Don't try to kiss me," she said. Even though the mood was right, everything was set, and all he had to do was shut up and close his eyes, he did not kiss her.

Then she fell asleep. She had been translating their book to him from French to English. The book was in her hands and her head was leaned against his chest. But they were not supposed to sleep together. This was one of Sally Ann's rules.

"And Adam and Eve were kicked out of the Garden of Eden and forced to lay on the hard rocks in clothed shame."

So Mike changed into his bedtime attire, took the sleeping bag from under the bed, and fell asleep on the floor. It was 4:30 AM.

After only a few minutes, Sally Ann woke him up and reminded him that it was his duty not to let her fall asleep in his bed. He apologized, and the intimacy that had built up so much potential was lost.

So Mike wrote her a love letter. He was so hurt that she had left the room. He was broken. He pleaded for her to come back.

Her world smelled of Eden. Servants were waiting to serve her. She brushed them all aside. She came to him enraged. She left silently. She asked him "what happened to my rage?" And he could not answer.

"Goodbye, blather. This is her world, not mine. She doesn't want me in it, and so I must go. Take my word for it, though it seems worthless. Take care of yourselves. Take care of each other."
