Embrace me, my sweet embraceable you
Embrace me, you irreplaceable you

Just one look at you
My heart grew tipsy in me
You and you alone
Bring out the Gypsy in me

I love all the many charms about you
Above all, I want these arms about you

Don't be a naughty baby
Come to papa, come to papa do
My sweet embraceable you



I love all the many charms about you
Above all, I want my arms about you

So don't you be, a naughty baby
Come to papa do
My sweet embraceable you

And this interesting variation is from Frank's album
"Frank Sinatra The Voice-The Columbia Years-Disc 1"


Embrace me, my sweet embraceable you
Embrace me, my silk-and-lace-able you
I'm in love with you, I am and verily so
But you're much too shy, unnecessarily so

I love all the many charms about you
Above all, I want my arms about you
Don't be a naughty baby, come to papa, do
My sweet embraceable you

I love all the many charms about you
Above all, I want these arms about you
So, don't be a naughty baby, come to papa, do
My sweet embraceable you

I think i've already posted these lyrics up but what the heck, i'll do it again because i really love this song :) especially done by ella fitzgerald.. so soothing and sweet.

Anyways i havent been up to much, have an exam on thursday to study for after which a dinner (!!) with the dean which is so weird because i've never personally met him before. I think he was supposed to be my academic advisor here but i didnt really need any academic advice so i never approached him before. Oh wells im sure it'll b a great german dinner :)

and then friday i have to head down to the post to mail back all my winter clothes, notes and unnecessary stuffs.. after which wine tour with some of the exchange students! thats gonna be pretty fun :) then sat, sun, mon - everyone starts to leave. sigh. im really sad, yesterday went to see ross off at the train station and aiya eveyrones leaving and its just sad sad sad. seems like we all got close too late. but then like they say, leave when you have the best impression, and when you've had the most fun so that you keep only the most treasured memories :)

i wonder who i'll see again in this life.. hmm. very very low chance i think. unless i really come back to europe to travel or work which would be nice, but those plans are not on the table for the moment, due to obvious financial reasons! Or, we really have a bbq reunion in Martinique in 5 years, hahahahahaahaha ;)

i think i will feel strange going back to Asia.. scully kena culture shock :P no more air kisses.. no more greeting people freely on the streets.. no more small town community. everything will just be strange and far out, people walk by each other like strangers, know what i mean?

i will miss late night movies.. will miss walking home in the dark and cold but yet feeling safe at the same time.. will miss bad english :P or english with bad french/german/spanish accents, hahaha :P will miss drinking free alcohol! will miss having a coffee/tea/beer just along the european sidewalks. quintessential european.

most of all, will miss the people. :(

want to cry already lah.

I so understand how that feels? :( been here for close to 3 years and I'm leaving soon, knowing that it's hardly likely I'll see them again in this life. really saddening. -hugs-
