But not in Seattle. Not about that movie as well.

Fact is, I don’t get to sleep easily these days, except at the office. So I ask a little help, not the aspirin nor the sleeping pill, but—just as years back when I used to ask the same kind of favor to the radio—to my TV.

There’s this timer on it that can wait as far as 90 minutes before it automatically turns off, which is often more than enough company. Sometimes it can be the late night news, most of the times it’s football, but it can also be some movies. And some midnight movies turn to be perfect chill for a tired soul like mine, though unlike those in the cinemas they are often old movies. Like this one… City of Angels.

So Meg Ryan is this time Maggie, a fine heart surgeon that one day fails in a surgery. A trembled Maggie meets Seth (Nicolas Cage), the angel sent to pick up the patient’s soul, and each party’s curiousity about the other’s flourishes love. The next parts won’t be mere romance but a bitter life story between human and ghost, served with proper darkness and two cold glass of songs from Sarah McLachlan and Goo Goo Dolls, Angel and Iris. And it succeeded in making me sleepless tonight, which I was fully thankful of, for there are times when sleeplessness could recover more than just sleeping on it. And it couldn’t have been more perfect than with Meg Ryan :p

The sun is rising now… I guess I’ll fetch my bath and catch my Monday morning meeting. Thanks, Meg. And nice haircut, Nick.

And I’d give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You’re the closest to heaven that I’ll ever be
And I don’t want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it’s over
I just don’t want to miss you tonight

And I don’t want the world to see me
Cause I don’t think that they’d understand
When everything’s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can’t fight the tears that ain’t coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything seems like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive

And I don’t want the world to see me
Cause I don’t think that they’d understand
When everything’s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I don’t want the world to see me
Cause I don’t think that they’d understand
When everything’s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
