Lana Del Rey - Young And Beautiful
After having seen The Great Gatsby t with my new coworkers this past weekend, I simply had to buy the album. The movie… while not as great as the book is still an interesting and touching one. DiCaprio did a phenomenal job doing Gatsby (hence I been saying Old Sport lately.) Lol
I must say that living in Tennessee is nice but I do miss home. I miss family and friends and especially my beloved Rose. It’s almost as if I’m in prison again at times (being 3000 miles away till September) but having taken this new summer job at Orkin is something that I felt I had to do. To grow as a person (financially, responsibly and spiritually), to explore new areas, and overcome one of my biggest fears/obstacles ever… be the best salesman ever! So far it’s working as I’ve made $1500 in a week. Lol. I never would have thought I’d ever consider sales. I guess watching The Office was no coincidence. Speaking of The Office… tonight is the final episode. :-( Meh enough about me… here’s the lyrics to the song I posted. What a beautiful song. It really makes me miss my beloved Rose so much. Only a few months left before I return and I can get us a car and new place.

I’ve seen the world
Done it all, had my cake now
Diamonds, brilliant, and Bel-Air now Hot summer nights mid July
When you and I were forever wild
The crazy days, the city lights
The way you’d play with me like a child
Will you still love me when
I’m no longer young and beautiful
Will you still love me when I got nothing but my aching soul
I know you will, I know you will I know that you will
Will you still love me when I’m no longer beautiful
I’ve seen the world, lit it up as my stage now
Channeling angels in, the new age now Hot summer days, rock and roll
The way you’d play for me at your show And all the ways I got to know
Your pretty face and electric soul
Will you still love me when I’m no longer young and beautiful
Will you still love me when I got nothing but my aching soul
I know you will, I know you will I know that you will
Will you still love me when I’m no longer beautiful
Dear lord when I get to heaven
Please let me bring my man
When he comes tell me that you’ll let him
Father tell me if you can
Oh that grace, oh that body
Oh that face makes me wanna party He’s my sun, he makes me shine like diamonds
Will you still love me when I’m no longer young and beautiful
Will you still love me when I got nothing but my aching soul
I know you will, I know you will I know that you will
Will you still love me when I’m no longer beautiful
Will you still love me when I’m no longer beautiful
Will you still love me when I’m not young and beautiful
