Congratulations

I had a dream my ex got married. It felt so real that I had no idea when I was awake. My heart felt heavy and I had to question why I was in that state. It was over, maybe, who knows? I had to rationalise and fast...I didn't want to have to sing 'Congratulations' if still had feelings for her and my dream was a premonition of what was about to happen soon. 'Congratulations' by Blue October was in my all time 'love' songs about a guy that finally expressed his feelings to a girl on her wedding day and gave her his 'heart' as a gift.

I asked myself if the relationship was indeed over by replaying in my head the reason for break-up but the disc of my memory was bad. I couldn't blame it, I remember I put in effort to bury her deep in my unconscious. I couldn't remember anything specific.

Another question was, shouldn't I be happy for her? After all she was getting married (if she was). I guess I'll find out sooner than latter. I however believe it was because it appeared in my dream that was making me give it that much attention. After all it was all a dream. Few days ago I told a girl to listen to the song 'Congratulations' to make her feel better. Now I have it on repeat. Decided to include the lyrics.

'Congratulations' by Blue October ft. Imogen Heap
Is that seat taken?

Congratulations
Would you like to take a walk with me?
My mind it kind of goes fast
I'll try to slow it down for you
I think I'd love to take a drive
I want to give you something
I've been wanting to give to you for years
My heart

My heart, my pain won't cover up
You left me.. hu hu hu hu
My heart can't take this cover up
You left me.. hu hu hu hu

I came to see the light in my best friend
You seemed as happy as you'd ever been
My chance of being open was broken
And now you're Mrs. Him.
My words they don't come out right
But I'll try to say I'm happy for you
I think I'm going to take that drive
I want to give you something
I've wanted to give to you for years
My heart

My heart, my pain won't cover up
You left me.. hu hu hu hu
My heart
My heart can't take this cover up
You left me.. hu hu hu hu
And I can't change this
I can never take it back
But now I can't change your mind
(You left me.. hu hu hu hu)
And I can't take this
I can never take this back
But now I can't change your mind
Can't change your mind
(You left me.. hu hu hu hu)
Can't change you mind
(You left me.. hu hu hu hu)
(You left me.. hu hu hu hu)
(You left me.. hu hu hu hu)
(You left me.. hu hu hu hu)
Just make it go away
Make it go away
Please.
