gingerish fever

Those who know me well enough would know that I'm a HUGE fan of As Told By Ginger. (As Told By Ginger is a cartoon by the way) Yes, I know...I know...I'm a bit old to still be watching cartoons, but As Told By Ginger is totally different. It's mostly about Ginger, (a teenager just like me), who's trying to figure out life (again, just like me) I've seen all the episodes and I'm kind of sad that there won't be anymore new episodes of As Told By Ginger. Anyway, on the last episode of As Told By Ginger, there were 2 songs that I really like, and I've been looking for the lyrics since last year but couldn't find it. So, today, I was just browsing through the As Told By Ginger fan site and I found the lyrics! :)

The first song is called "Go Slip Away"

There were days when our woven fingers would sway,
Now your hands only push mine away,
I won't keep you - go slip away,
There were ways; I would try to find one every day,
But you couldn't hear what I had to say,
I won't keep you - go slip away,
That's what you really want,
To fade into the grain of my mind,
You're racing towards the finish line,
I won't keep you...

The second song is called "You Bounced".

How could you go and leave me here,
To sink with all the rest,
How could you go and leave me behind,
Baby, I'm not impressed,
I should have known you'd bail on me,
Leave me adrift at sea,
To sink with all the broken hearts,
And share their misery,
I'll never forget your misery,
No matter how hard I try,
I won't forget how many times,
You left me here to cry,
Just keep going - don't look back,
It's easier that way,
Forget all that we ever had,
I'm just your yesterday,
You bounced - You quit,
You walked away - That's it,
We're over - You split,
You walked away - You bounced,
That's it...

But still, my most favourite song from all the episodes of As Told By Ginger is still "All This Time"

All this time it was you,
I didn't think that it could be true,
You were right there from the start,
And what might be the strangest part,
Is while I sure enjoyed the view,
Of seeing everything brand new,
It's still you.
All this time I was home,
I didn't know just how far I'd roam,
Winter brings all this snow,
Blinding, it covers everything you know,
But when the sun comes shining through,
And the sky returns to blue,
I will rush to take my cue and find you...



"All this time" is a song that Ginger sang to Darren when she first realise she likes him more than a friend. (They were bestfriends before they became a couple). But they broke up in highschool when Darren met a cheerleader named Simone and that's when Ginger wrote the song "You Bounced". The song "Go Slip Away" was written by Ginger's band mate who likes Ginger but Ginger was too afraid of commitments after what Darren did to her. I actually cried when I first heard it...

Oh, Ginger and Darren did get married in the end. :)
