I bought this old, old guitar yesterday in a junk shop in Birmingham, I'm pretty sure it pre-dates the song. Anyway I thought I'd give it a try out, I think the sound it makes has 'character'. The song was also included on Elvis Costello's 1981 album of country standards, 'Almost Blue', at hyper speed, which is where I heard it first. Played on a beaten up old guitar, like the White Stripes or the superior Flat Duo Jets. I've been told I need flatwound strings to have any chance of this guitar sounding OK... I was told this after I did this video!!!! I was listening to my Robert Johnson CD last night and I heard the same guitar sound as this guitar makes (obviously played a bit differently!!!)

Hope (More) What happens when you try to use a Vibraphone as a hook in a heavy song?
Well this. Lol. :)
This song is about inner frustration when people assume they know someone without asking. :)
Hope you enjoy.
Here are the lyrics
-----------------------------------------
You don't know what I'm thinking.
You don't know how I feel.
Well you are picking guesses from the air.
Why don't you ask?
You don't care what I do.
Just as long as it doesn't affect you.
Well you could learn about me if you tried.
So why don't you ask?
There are clouds in the sky,
And not one passes by.
Without catching my eye.
The clouds are what you say.
I listen every day.
Come what may. Come what may.
There are clouds in the sky,
And not one passes by.
Without catching my eye.
The clouds are what you say.
I listen every day.
Those clouds in the sky,
Not one passes by without catching my eye.
So listen like I do.
Like I do to you.
Come what may. Come what may. Come what may.

Ch. 4
When we left off Kaitlyn and Nick were being chased by a mob of girls. Kaitlyn had an idea of where to go.
REMEMBER: She has two best friends named Emily and Breann. They both LOVE the Jonas Brothers. They couldn't go to the concert with Kaitlyn because they had things going on. Also, winter is ending. There is still snow outside but it is all slowly melting and so is the ice.
Kaitlyn has led Nick into a little store. It is empty except for the cashier behind a counter who looks like she is in her 50s and a couple others in the store.
Nick—where is this? *Looking around*
Kaitlyn—this place is called Circle of Friends. It's like a mini Goodwill. But it's where I hang out most of the time.
Nick—Oh.
Cashier—Hey Kaitlyn how's it going?
Kaitlyn—Hey Marge. I'm doing well. Business going good?
Marge—well, you know. It's the same as usual. Not many people want to come out in the cold.
Kaitlyn—Yeah, I understand that.
Marge—Hey Kaitlyn. Come here. I need you to help me with something.
Kaitlyn—Ok. Nick why don't you just sit down and I'll be right back.
Nick-Ok *He sits on a nearby couch*
Marge brings Kaitlyn to a room in the back of the store.
Kaitlyn—What do you need help with?
Marge—Nothing really. I just wanted to ask you something.
Kaitlyn—What do you need to ask me?
Marge—Is that Nick Jonas you're hanging out with? That one boy you and your friends talk about all the time?
Kaitlyn—Yeah, that is. I went to one of the Jonas Brother concerts and I met him and he asked for my phone number. Amazing isn't it? *Kaitlyn turns around and looks out the door. She sees Nick looking at something that was in a basket by him. He looks up and smiles. She smiles back*
Marge—Wow, he must really like you. *Marge is watching from behind Kaitlyn* *Kaitlyn turns around*
Kaitlyn—I don't know. I hope so.
Marge—Well, me too. Let's go. Let's not keep that lovely boy waiting. *They walk out of the back room and out towards Nick. Marge goes behind the counter again and Kaitlyn goes and sits down by Nick. Nick puts his arm around Kaitlyn's shoulders. Kaitlyn stiffens out of nervousness and Nick takes it the wrong way. *
Nick—Is that uncomfortable for you? I can move my arm *he starts to move his arm away but Kaitlyn grabs it and puts it back*
Kaitlyn—No. I'm fine. I just get nervous really easy. And let me tell you. Being here with you is not making it any easier.
Nick—Oh...sorry.
Kaitlyn—Oh no no no, don't be sorry. It's just how I am. I love being here with you.
Nick—Oh, ok. Well hopefully, you will get more used to it. I mean I'm going to try to spend a lot of time with you.
Kaitlyn—You're telling me all this while we're still on our first date? *She is looking into his eyes now*
Nick-*looking back into her eyes*-Well, to tell you the truth...you amaze me.
Kaitlyn—Wow. You always amazed me!
Nick—Ha ha... Well at least that's something we have in common.
Kaitlyn-*laughs*-Yea *Kaitlyn notices there are two girls sitting at a table across the room. It looks like they haven't even noticed Nick and Kaitlyn. Kaitlyn recognizes them* OMJ! Oh, err...I-I-I mean Oh my gosh.

I know you saw me walking down the street and I
Know you walked behind me starring at your feet and I
I hope you're coming nearer asking me what's the time
I hunger for the moment when your eyes meet mine
How I hope you found the way and you do it right
Cause at lunch you're walking here right by my side
You always cross my way but you are too shy
To tell me just a thing and I wonder why boy
And so the time goes by
You are so shy boy
No matter how I try
Your walk gone by
But if you want it
Go out and get it
Every time you need it
Reach out and grab it
No matter how hard you have to try
No matter how bad you have to cry
Just don't be shy
Baby don't be shy
La la

Why don't you come and stand in front of me
A little bravery this is what you need boy
I know you're calling me and then you're hanging up the phone
Why don't you say a word cause I'm like you alone at home
Yes I know you want me to tell you what you feel
I keep believing that in one day you'll make it real
You always cross my way but you are too shy
To tell me what you want I wonder why boy
And so the time goes by
You are so shy boy
No matter how I try
You won't come by
But if you want it
Go out and get it
Every time you need it
Reach out and grab it
No matter how hard you have to try
No matter how bad you have to cry
Just don't be shy
Baby don't be shy
Don't be shy
Just take your chance
And don't worry
I'll be there for you
(If you try)
Start your emend to should hurry
Love's the way for you
(Tell me why)
You don't believe you can make it
You don't have to cry
Just don't be shy oh baby
Don't be shy
But if you want it
Go out and get it
Every time you need it
Reach out and grab it
I know you want it
Go out and get it
Every time you need it
Reach out and grab it

No matter how bad you have to cry

There so little in this world to trust in
Seduce themselves with lies
Some don't realize
They call it love but its really only lusting

Cause I'm caught between yes and no

Cause when you kiss me
I feel everything that I been missing
I try to slow down but my heart wont listen
And its tearing me all up inside
And when you touch me
I feel a rush but I'm afraid that it might crush me
Should I put my trust in something I don't trust in
I try to run but theres no place to hide
Cause baby kisses don't lie

You whisper in my ear
But are your words sincere
Cause pretty words can cut just like a knife
You see I'm nobody's fool
I play by my own rules
So please think twice before you step into my life

I don't know what they're talking about
I'm making my own decision
This thing that I found ain't gonna bring me down
I'm like a junkie without an addiction
Mama don't cry I just wanna stay high
I like playing with danger and fear
Everybody's walkin' but nobody's talkin'
It looks a lot better from here
[Chorus:]
All my life I've been over the top
I don't know what I'm doing
All I know is I don't wanna stop
All fired up, I'm gonna go till I drop
You're either in or in the way
Don't make me, I don't wanna stop
Why don't they ever listen to me?
Is this the one way conversation?
Nothing they say is gonna set me free
Don't need no mental masturbation
Too many religions for only one god
I don't need another saviour
Don't try to change my mind
You know I'm one of a kind
Ain't gonna change my bad behaviour
[Chorus x2]
I don´t wanna stop
Are you ever going to stop?
I don´t wanna stop, I don´t wanna stop
I don´t wanna stop, I don´t wanna stop
Are you ever going to stop?

The next step, of course, would be to punish dissent to their "Christian" ideals. The conference was sponsored by American Vision, what this article calls "a radical ministry that toils away to 'help Christians build a truly Biblical worldview,'" Some 800 people attended, representing a number of other groups with similar goals One of their speakers, Gary North, called for a Taliban-like rule. This is his view of a Christian America: North has called for the death penalty . . . for youngsters who curse their parents, gays and others who violate his interpretation of biblical law. He has argued that stoning is the preferred means of capital punishment, noting that it is a communal activity and "the implements of execution are available to everyone at virtually no cost." This conference really scary. As an atheist, I hear all the time, "Why do you atheists think you have to promote atheism? Why don't you just keep it to yourself?" This conference represents the reason that we go on YouTube and elsewhere to state our views and try to reach the fence-sitters. We know the thoroughly convinced Christians, Muslims and other religionists will not heed anything we say. But there are many who have been disappointed by what they have been taught, and some of them may come to see that the world needs a peaceful secular vision, not a warlike religious one. Muslims claim that theirs is a religion of peace, while, in the name of Allah, some of them sever the heads of anyone who disagrees with them, and threaten mass violence over a cartoon. The ones whjo insist they arte peaceful seem only rarely to denounce the actions of these killers. Christians claim to represent the "Prince of Peace," yet they wage war on non-Christians in distant lands and promise war on non-Christians in their own. The only hope for peace in the world is secularism/humanism. I am utterly convinced of that. Atheists and other secular humanists do not threaten anyone. We simply try to fight fanaticism with reason. I fear that we will lose. The religionists are experts at propaganda. They do not hesitate to lie, especially when characterizing the ideas of their dissenters. They play to emotion and not reason. They would (and eventually will, I fear) kill anyone who disagrees with them in any particular. (Less) Channel: youtube
