listening to: christopher cross - swept away

christmas time

so my christmas shopping spree has begun in earnest... and after about five days of intensive window shopping at suntec / taka / raffles city / marina square, i've come to the conclusion that this is it - this will be the last, late great christmas present hunt i'll be on for a long, long time to come. no more such madness come 2006 - i'm going to enjoy my christmas without the headache of searching for tonnes of presents (and just enjoy receiving them). and the cards too.. the number of which will be severely pared down in 12 months' time (although i know the few of you reading this don't give a hoot about the cards... it's prezzies you want!!! you pragmatic people...). interestingly enough, i found tonnes of stuff i wanted this year however...

that being said - i am enjoying this christmas season, extremely so... been seeing much more of family and loved ones... snatching snippets of time to read while journeying from place to place... sleeping in more... screwing the schedule and living life...

i never had anything happen so fast
took one look and i shattered like glass
i guess i let it show
'cos your smile told me you knew

that you're everything i ever wanted at once
there's no holding this heart
when it knows what it wants
and i never wanted anything more than to know you

i was swept away
no one in the world but you and i
gotta find a way
to make you feel the way that i do

i was swept away
without a warning
like night when the morning begins the day
i was swept away...
