Thunder
by Boys Like Girls
Today is a winding road that's taking me to places that I didn't want to go
Whoa (whoa, whoa, whoa)
Today in the blink of an eye I'm holding on to something and I do not know why
I tried
I tried to read between the lines
I tried to look in your eyes
I want a simple explanation
For what I'm feeling inside
I gotta find a way out
Maybe there's a way out
Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I don't wanna ever love another
You'll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
And bring on the thunder
Today is a winding road
Tell me where to start and tell me something I don't know
Whoa (whoa, whoa, whoa)
Today I'm on my own
I can't move a muscle and I can't pick up the phone
I don't know (I don't know, I don't know, I don't know)
And now I'm itching for the tall grass
And longing for the breeze
I need to step outside
Just to see if I can breathe
I gotta find a way out
Maybe theres a way out
Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I don't wanna ever love another
You'll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
Yeah I'm walking on a tightrope
I'm wrapped up in vines
I think we'll make it out
But you just gotta give me time
Strike me down with lightning
Let me feel you in my veins
I wanna let you know how much I feel your pain
Today is a winding road that's taking me to places that I didn't want to go
Whoa
Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I don't wanna ever love another
You'll always be my thunder
And I said
Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
Oh baby bring on the pain
And listen to the thunder
.:Looking Back, One Year Ago...:.
I was not one of the initial Aircheckers in Batch 5 since at the time, they were still trying me out in hopes that I could be a jock. Not only did I enter the fray rather late in the game, the whole thing even got cut short without so much as a warning on that fateful August day. Still, people learn to live on and move on, and here we are today. The era indeed ended too soon.
Despite that, I can safely say that Aircheck Batch 5 has played a very important role in my life. Everyone knows how much fun we had with each other, especially at the tail end of our run in the station, where some of the Aircheckers regularly went to my 3-6AM timeslot to train on their boardwork. From handling the console to going on air, some of these kids definitely bloomed when they were there, particularly since they were drilled quite ruthlessly. I am strongly reminded, for instance, of Vanessa, whom we constantly reminded off the air whenever her diction would be a bit off-kilter and all that.
I have a lot of fond memories of Aircheck Batch 5, and I take them with me where I go. One of the few people who has managed to be both Radio 1 and Campus Aircheck, it has been a great honor to have worked with the luminaries of the radio industry, and to know that the door is still open for me to give back to the radio industry in due time. The Aircheckers should feel the same way, because I know they can still make their mark on radio if they put their minds to it.
I don’t have too many words to spare for the Aircheckers today, because I’ve been telling them a lot over the time we’ve spent with each other. For now, here’s one to Aircheck Batch 5, because I just know that gone too soon as it may have been, we’re all in this together for keeps.
