In the midnight moonlight I'll
Be walking a long and lonely mile
And every time I do
I keep seeing this picture of you

Here comes my baby, here she comes now
And it comes as no surprise to me, with another guy
Here comes my baby, here she comes now
Walking with a love, with a love that's all so fine
Never could be mine, no matter how I try

You never walk alone
And you're forever talking on the phone
I've tried to call you names
But every time it comes out the same

Here comes my baby, here she comes now
And it comes as no surprise to me, with another guy
Here comes my baby, here she comes now
Walking with a love, with a love that's all so fine
Never could be mine, no matter how I try

I'm still waiting for your heart
'Cause I'm sure that some day it's gonna start
You'll be mine to hold each day
But 'til then this is all that I can say

Here comes my baby, here she comes now
And it comes as no surprise to me, with another guy
Here comes my baby, here she comes now
Walking with a love, with a love that's all so fine
Never could be mine, no matter how I try

Here comes my baby, here she comes now
And it comes as no surprise to me, with another guy

    well, what's not to understand? boy likes girl, girl likes somebody else. what I DO like is that she's not with a bad boyfriend or anything -- this is more how things REALLY are. sometimes you just happen to love someone...and that someone else loves and is equally loved by someone else. them's the break.

    a wonderfully sweet, sad (and mighty catchy) song.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
