“Fate cracks a window once it’s bolted all one’s doors
Oh Rianne I will not rest until I’m yours”
A common post-gig question is, “So, who’s Rianne then?” A common post-gig answer to said question is, “Rianne is an abstract drawn from various sources; a quantum probability whom I can only hope to meet one day. Perhaps she’s you.” A common reaction to this answer is an awkward silence, followed by a hasty retreat.
This is yet another take from my Summer 2011 recording session. Unusually for me, it is quite long, weighing in at about 4 and a half minutes. Next stop prog!
You think I’m joking….
Lyrics:
Oh Rianne
The fact of never having you
took quite a lot of working through
I’ve previously sung about the worst time we ever said adieu
This story should be done by now
The pages should have fallen out
Oh Rianne
I really really think I am the only one for you
and I would waste a whole life vainly trying to convince you that it’s true
I could be your knight in shining armour or your whore
Oh Rianne I will not rest until I’m yours
Oh Rianne
Fate forever forked
This one time in your life just give it up and go for me
My self esteem gets damaged and my heart aches when you see me as plan B
Bring me my rivals and I will defeat them all
Oh Rianne I will not rest until I’m yours
Oh Rianne
I will not abort
Though when I say I will not rest I mean I’ll strive to be the best
and either win your heart or self improve enough that I can just restart
Fate cracks a window once it’s bolted all one’s doors
Oh Rianne I will not rest until I’m yours
In the aftermath of insanity, one cold fact endures
Oh Rianne I will not rest until I’m yours
