In My Life - Quit Whistling the Blues, You Mockingbird
I’ll love you, even if you have strayed into the
darkness
Stop whistling the blues, you mockingbird – whistle with
your might your marvelous tunes of accord and faithfulness!
I love you from the bottom of the ocean to the heavens
above
I’ll love you – I won’t get over you and you’re my love at
first sight – you were and still are a dazzling, surreal sight –
you kiss me and I’m overwhelmed with passionate bliss
I will love you if you would step out of the abyss with me
I’m fearless to say that I used to bleed out remorse
Before I met you…of course
I used to cry myself asleep because I felt so alone
Before I met you, I was on my own
V.9: My heart bled with grief from the inside
When I saw you, grief-stricken by the death of your friend
My heart beats for you alone – you were always by my side
Be sad and distressed no more – I will love you, even in the
end
My heart beat’s beating for you – you are such a thrill
My heart aches for your love
My heart thumps with victory and marvel
I’m mesmerized by the mere sight of you – you’re as
gracious and elegant as an angel above
*chorus* I won’t give credit to myself for saving you from
the flames of abominable, taunting fate – I want to say that
I’ve unchained you from the death’s snare
But, I must tell you someday, so that you’re aware
That you are someone special in my heart – I can’t conceal
the truth of what I feel for you deep inside
In my life, in my life, I’m still stuck in the solitary cave
In my life, in my life, I thought I wasn’t at all brave
I was caved in by the cravings of my heart
The darkness once ripped me apart
But, you repaired me and I recovered pretty fast
So, please listen up! I must tell you about my good and bad
past
Fear doesn’t exist here
Get a grip on the rope of hope
All anxieties are gone
We dream on like daydreamers, awaiting another great,
delight-illuminated dawn
I’ll love you until my life is no more
I’ll love you, even if you have strayed into the darkness
I love you from the bottom of the ocean to the heavens
above
I’ll love you – I won’t get over you and you’re my love at
first sight – you were and still are a dazzling, surreal sight –
you kiss me and I’m overwhelmed with passionate bliss
I will love you if you would step out of the abyss with me
I’m fearless to say that I used to bleed out remorse
Before I met you…of course
I used to cry myself asleep because I felt so alone
Before I met you, I was on my own
V.10: We welcome the dawn with open arms – it will do you
no harm
Greet all positive, good news with happiness
You are my lucky charms, my love – your hands are so, so
warm
Stop singing the blues…stop whistling the blues, you
mockingbird – whistle with pure gladness
Quit making us quarrel with madness!
