Don’t You (Forget About Me)

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ooh, woah

Won’t you come see about me?
I’ll be alone, dancing, you know it, baby

Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving everything inside and out and
Love’s strange, so real in the dark
Think of the tender things that we were working on

Slow change may pull us apart
When the light gets into your heart, baby

Don’t you, forget about me
Don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t
Don’t you, forget about me

Will you stand above me?
Look my way, never love me
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down

Will you recognize me?
Call my name or walk on by
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down, down

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ooh, woah

Don’t you try and pretend
It’s my feeling we’ll win in the end
I won’t harm you or touch your defenses
Vanity and security, ah

Don’t you forget about me
I’ll be alone, dancing, you know it, baby
Going to take you apart
I’ll put us back together at heart, baby

Don’t you, forget about me
Don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t
Don’t you, forget about me

As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
When you walk away

Or will you walk away?
Will you walk on by?
Come on, call my name
Will you call my name?

I say
La, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
When you walk on by
And you call my name
When you walk on by

On Monday I watch the Brat Pack documentary BRATS with Teresa. I’m not going to full on endorse this documentary unless you are in a certain age group. But it did put me in the mood to watch some Brat Pack movies. ST. ELMO’S FIRE. ABOUT LAST NIGHT. For example. But I thought for this Thursday’s journal title I would use the song from what is by far AND I MEAN BY FAR, the best Brat Pack movie. THE BREAKFAST CLUB.

But Thursdays are for flowers. This flowertography session is small and you might think it is really all butterflies, but butterflies are just self-propelled flowers. Duh!

This collection was taken in my yard:

Sorrow and Gladness - 2023

I think there is only one more day of 2023 flower images left to share!

  1. Gorgeous flowers! And the butterfly is beautiful.

    Adore The Breakfast Club. I feel like Pretty In Pink is underrated in the John Hughes pantheon!

    I’ve had that documentary on my list; I’ll have to move it up!

    I don’t know it is great. McCarthy is not good at interviewing people. He talks more than they do. Rob Lowe and Demi Moore come off best, but that might be because they had the best careers. But it is definitely interesting and worth watching. And there is some information about the ending to PRETTY IN PINK that I didn’t know in it.
