RAIN

I feel it.
It’s coming….

Rain, feel it on my finger tips..
Hear it on my window pane..
Your love’s coming down like
Rain, wash away my sorrow
Take away my pain
Your love’s coming down like rain

When your lips are burning mine
And you take the time
To tell me how you feel
When you listen to my words
And I know you’ve heard

I know it’s real
Rain is what this thunder brings
For the first time I can hear my heart sing
Call me a fool but I know I’m not
I’m gonna stand out here on the mountain top
Til I feel your

Rain, feel it on my finger tips
Hear it on my window pane
Your love’s coming down like
Rain, wash away my sorrow
Take away my pain
Your love’s coming down like rain

When you looked into my eyes
And you said goodbye
Could you see my tears
When I turned the other way
Did you hear me say

I’d wait for all the
Dark clouds bursting in a perfect sky
You promised me when you said goodbye
That you’d return when the storm was done
And now I’ll wait for the light, I’ll wait for the sun
Til I feel your

Rain, feel it on my finger tips
Hear it on my window pane
Your love’s coming down like
Rain, wash away my sorrow
Take away my pain
Your love’s coming down like

Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun
And I say
Never go away

Waiting is the hardest thing
I tell myself that if I believe in you
In the dream of you
With all my heart and all my soul
That by sheer force of will
I will raise you from the ground
And without a sound you’ll appear
And surrender to me, to love

Rain is what the thunder brings
For the first time I can hear my heart sing
Call me a fool but I know I’m not
I’m gonna stand out here on the mountain top
Til I feel your rain

I feel it
It’s coming
Your love’s coming down like
Rain
I feel it
It’s coming
Your love’s coming down like

Rain, feel it on my finger tips
Hear it on my window pane
Your love’s coming down like
Rain, wash away my sorrow
Take away my pain
Your love’s coming down like rain

I feel it
It’s coming
Your love’s coming down like
Rain
I feel it
It’s coming
Your love’s coming down like
Rain

Rain!

RICORACER FLUX “The Journey”: People lately have been asking me about modeling and whether I make a lot of money. LOL. I usually respond with, “Don’t go into modeling if you think you can make a lot of money. Most of the time, you spend more than you get paid.” I go on to explain that sometimes you don’t get paid other than the outfit that they provide for you to wear at the show. Most of the time, I spend more to buy skins, hair, jewelry, poses and accessories to complement the outfit for the show. They then give me a “ARE YOU CRAZY?” look asking “WHY THE HECK DO YOU MODEL THEN?”. LOL. I usually pause a bit at this time thinking of the right answer to give, that they would understand, so they would stop giving me the “crazy” look.
Why the heck do I model?
Well, Modeling in SL is something I am passionate about. It is exciting to be part of infusing my own touch and personality into a designer’s creation to create something beautiful and extraordinary. Then to show it off on the runway or print ads is exhilarating. All those hours of preparing the outfit, making sure all prims are perfect, picking the right poses that would show off the design, making sure the skins/hair/accessories goes well together… It is worth it for the few minutes of showing it off to an excited (well, sometimes comatose ;p) crowd. LOL.
I model because I love that feeling of mixed nervousness and exhilaration as the adrenaline pumps up while waiting backstage at a show. I model because modeling allows me to be creative and let me live the dream even if it is only in the Virtual World. Usually at this time, I get silence then they get “booted”. Pfft. I hope I didn’t bore them.

LYRICS:
YOUR SONG

My gift is my song
And this one’s for you
And you can tell everybody
That this is your song
It maybe quite simple
But now that it’s done
Hope you don’t mind
I hope you don’t mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is now you’re in the world

Sat on the roof
And I kicked off the moss
Well some of the verses well
They got me quite cross
But the sun’s been kind
While I wrote this song
It’s for people like you that
Keep it turned on

So excuse me for forgetting
But these things I do
You see I’ve forgotten
If they’re green or they’re blue
Anyway the thing is well I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I’ve ever seen

[Allesandro- opera]

And you can tell everybody
This is your song
It may be quite simple
But now that it’s done
I hope you don’t mind
I hope you don’t mind that I put down in words

How wonderful life is now you’re in the world
I hope you don’t mind
I hope you don’t mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is now you’re in the world.

LYRICS: Dreaming with a Broken Heart

When you’re dreaming with a broken heart,
The waking up is the hardest part.
You roll out of bed and down on your knees,
and for a moment you can hardly breathe.
Wondering was she really here
Is she standing in my room?

No, she’s not…
cause she’s gone, gone, gone, gone, gone.

When you’re dreaming with a broken heart,
The giving up is the hardest part.
She takes you in with her crying eyes
then all at once you have to say goodbye.
Wondering could you stay my love?
Will you wake up by my side?

No, she can’t…
cause she’s gone, gone, gone, gone, gone.

Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?
Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my, roses in my hands?
Would you get them if I did?

No, you won’t…
Cause you’re gone, gone, gone, gone, gone.

When you’re dreaming with a broken heart
the waking up is the hardest part.
