Let's hear it

do you have to let it linger?



In Click, The Cranberries' popular tune, Linger, was Adam Sandler's and Kate Beckinsale's song. But gotta splice up the lyrics cos the context is pretty messed up (about a guy cheating on his girlfriend who thought he's the one). I'm sure there were only parts of it that made it their song. Like the line "I'm such a fool for you". Oh, also because their first dance was to it.

The first dance: always an excuse to make a song belong to a relationship. Going by that popular convention then Gabe and I have to thank Usher for making O.M.G our song. Actually I'm semi-serious. The knowing glances and throwing our hands up in wild abandon when the DJ plays O.M.G. It is our song if we have a song. I'm kinda embarrassed though. We are such goofballs tootbags.

Then again I like to think so many songs belong to us in the possessive way a girl in love would think.
