My friends Charles Chu and Ryan O'Nan wrote this wonderful screenplay which they graciously let me read called "Chu and Blossom". After finishing it I wrote this song. It's about losing someone and looking for them in places you once spoke of together. You might notice that there's a line in it that I sing in Korean. I'm pretty sure I got the pronunciation wrong, which is part of the point. The character being sought after is Korean, and the singer is not. Ultimately, this song didn't make it in the movie but couple of others did including a demo version of "All Bets Are Off" and "I Love Lucy".
lyrics
"WAITING ON A BREEZE"
Was waiting on a breeze to knock me off my feet
When you came through, and took me out
They could tell us where to go, but I don't want to know
How bodies break, I rather look the other way
I look for you now in places we've talked about
Dear, how dare you leave me?
Without any word
You left me lost and unaware,
You just don't know or you just don't care?
Most would walk away, but I can hardly wait
My body aches, but I like the pain
Only one thing left unsaid
"너를 사랑해"
I look for you now in places we've talked about
Dear, how dare you leave me?
Without any word
You left me lost and unaware,
You just don't know or you just don't care?
So it goes, that you never know
So much for the ones you love
So much for love
I look for you now in places we've talked about
Dear, how dare you leave me?
Without any word or any leads
I look for you now in places we've talked of
Dear, how dare you leave me?
You left me lost and unaware,
You just don't know or you just don't care?
