I've been singing this for a while now. Ive got you under my skin Ive got you deep in the heart of me So deep in my heart, that youre really a part of me Ive got you under my skin My best mate Z is my age (30) and is having a mastectomy. Ive tried so not to give in Ive said to myself this affair never will go so well But why should I try to resist, when baby will I know than well That Ive got you under my skin We've laughed, not cried yet. That's for another day. I would sacrifice anything come what might For the sake of having you near In spite of a warning voice that comes in the night And repeats, repeats in my ear To make matters more funny/ridiculous/mind-numbingly sad, her Dad dropped dead of a massive heart attack the day before her surgery so she decided to postpone. Unable to face losing her Dad and her breast in one week. Fair play. Dont you know you fool, you never can win Use your mentality, wake up to reality But each time I do, just the thought of you Makes me stop before I begin cause Ive got you under my skin I imagine them, like little clusters of eggs with malevolent intent. Sitting in her. Snuggling in the warmth under her armpit. Waiting to hatch. There is something black and desperate about the concept of a World without her. Everyone tells us how good medical science is, and how everything will be OK. But only she and I and her sister ever suffer that frisson of utter terror. That cold dripping of icy nothingness that accompanies the tainted. If it were a kidney I would give her mine, if it were a lung I would cope with one. But there is nothing I can give her to make her stronger now; which is annoying. There is nothing. |

Friendship, normality, laughter and being positive - it will help and is very definitely not nothing.
