Now, why didn't I find this thread sooner??? Music and fic,two of my favorite things put together!
About a year ago,I heard Laura Pausini's Everyday is a Monday and an idea for a fic popped in my head ( I never wrote it though
as it usually happens with me and my ideas) What came to mind was something along the lines of that Bill Murray Movie where he gets stuck in the same day and Twas the night before Mxymas, though I hadn't set it anywhere in th L&C chronology (though, reading the song now, after Contact seems a good time)
Everyday Is A Monday (Il Mio Sbaglio Più Grande)
by Laura Pausini
Feels like
I´ve been frozen in time
And I'm looking for an easy way
To get on with my life
But I know
You´re the one to tell
I´ve been putting on a masquerade
I ain´t doing that well
Everything has crashed
And I'm losing this game
I can't help myself but wonder
Do you feel the same?
How could I ever say goodbye
Everyday is a monday
Without you by my side
I must have been a fool to try
`Cos everyday is a monday
Without you in my life
Tell me
It's a big mistake
'Cause I kinda learned my lesson
more than I can take
Freedom had a price to pay
I don't wanna be the one
to throw it all away
Everything has crashed
And I'm losing this game
I can't help myself but wonder
Do you feel the same?
(Chorus)
We were the weekend
Always living to be free
Now I’m stuck here on a monday
When I need you
Everyday of the week.
(I like the Italian and Spanish versions of the song much more, but the lyrics are comletely different)
Other than that, another Pausini song (yeah, I guess we all have confession to make... her music is one of my weaknesses
) seemed perfect for Lois at a certain moment as I was writing Nothing but a Luthor on the way:
If that's Love (Laura Pausini)
If you're gonna break my heart and leave
Make promises you don't intend to keep
If that's love then I want no part.
But if you think that love should last for life
If you believe it's more than just one night
If that's love then you've got my heart.
And if you'd rather hold on to your pride
Than wipe away the tears you made me cry
If that's love then I want no part.
But if you're gonna be there when I need
Someone to just hold me tenderly
If that's love then you've got my heart.
If the kinda love that you bring
comes with no demands and no strings
If in your eyes I see for sure
That you're the one I'm waiting for
I'll give my heart, my soul, my everything.
If I have to let go of my dreams
Become someone I never ever thought I'd be
If that's love then I want no part.
But if you're gonna be the kinda man
Who's willing just to take me as I am
If that's love then you've got my heart.
Tell me in your arms I'll be safe
Where loneliness and fear have no place
The only thing you have to do
The only thing I ask of you
Is give your heart, your soul, and your faith.
And if you cannot give these things to me
Then I just have to tell you honestly
If that's love then I want no part.
But if you say you've finally found in me
The only place that you could ever be
If that's love then you've got my heart
If that's love then you've got my heart
If that's love, if that's love
If that's love BABY YOU, BABY YOU you've got my heart
I think I went over my 2 cents
