Bruce is God! (2)

Bruce was in town tonight. And I felt like an out of tune guitar. It used to be that I owned the floor at the Antwerp Sportpaleis when Bruce played there. Tonight, I could barely hold my own. I died a couple of times tonight: The Ties that Bind, Mary’s Place, Trapped and Point Blank… Killer songs. I stood in the center of the storm and survived.

And quite honestly, it is one of the best Springsteen shows I’ve seen. They played bunch of songs that were a first for me. Live that is. I am just a prisoner of rock’n’roll. And Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band IS rock’n’roll.

Thank you Bruce! Thank you Luc for standing by my side (again). And my dear sisters: thank you for makin’ me go to see the show.

But maybe everything that dies someday comes back”

Boss, I believe!

Confusion

We try to confuse eachother where ever we can. As if these times aren’t confusing enough as they are. Came across this road sign on my way home today. “Left or right for Antwerp, Honey?” “I don’t care sweetheart, you choose!”

Tryin’

And I want to tell you
Why would I try to
You are all I can see now
I know I’ll try to

I have to learn, have to try, have to trust I have to cry
I have to see, have to know that I can be myself

Keeping the Faith

On his right hand Billy tattooed the word love
and on his left hand was the word fear
And in which hand he held his faith was never clear

Tourists Welcome

Found this parking meter in Knokke-Heist today. This is only one of the richest communities in Belgium. They attract a lot of tourists during the summer. And they are happy to have them, as long as they leave behind some money. The display on the meter reads: “parking ticket required only on weekends, legal holidays and school vacations”.

“Breathe”

I can feel the magic floating in the air
Being with you gets me that way
I watch the sunlight dance across your face and I’ve
Never been this swept away

All my thoughts just seem to settle on the breeze
When I’m lying wrapped up in your arms
The whole world just fades away
The only thing I hear
Is the beating of your heart

‘Cause I can feel you breathe
It’s washing over me
Suddenly I’m melting into you
There’s nothing left to prove
Baby all we need is just to be
Caught up in the touch
The slow and steady rush
Baby, isn’t that the way that love’s supposed to be
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe

In a way I know my heart is waking up
As all the walls come tumbling down
I’m closer than I’ve ever felt before
And I know
And you know
There’s no need for words right now

‘Cause I can feel you breathe
It’s washing over me
Suddenly I’m melting into you
There’s nothing left to prove
Baby all we need is just to be
Caught up in the touch
The slow and steady rush
Baby, isn’t that the way that love’s supposed to be
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe

Caught up in the touch
The slow and steady rush
Baby, isn’t that the way that love’s supposed to be
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe

I can feel the magic floating in the air
Being with you gets me that way
