As posted on YouTube on the 28th of September, 2009.

A million and one thousand things are screaming in my head,

And I can't seem to forget, can't stop thinking about you

I could ride across the sky in a bicycle built for two,

Could you teach me how to ride, like you taught me how to feel alive

And not a single day goes by when I don't wish for you

To watch me pause to find the words to steal your heart away,

But I'd play every word back round and round to try and find

A clue you might have left behind to say you feel the same

'Cause even if I know,

I'll never be your Leo,

I'll keep holding on

A hundred and three thousand ghosts are laughing in my dreams,

My eyes are failing me, everywhere I look I see you

I could bake a chocolate cake for you with tears up to the moon,

Could you show me how it's done, like you showed me how to fall in love

You'll never see that I'm the one who never left you

When you needed me to cry to 'cause your heart got broke again,

So I'll play until the strings of my guitar give out,

And I'll be aching from the pain of trying to pretend

And even if I know,

I'll never be your Leo,

I'll keep holding on

Even if I know,

I'll never be your Leo,

I'll keep holding on

That video was edited by the amazingly lovely Charlieissocoollike, who is my friend. So, if you haven't heard of him you should check him out, he's really good, he makes really good videos and I'll link to him on the sidebar.

It also featured the lovely hexacordal Tom Milsom who's my producer of the album. He was on harmony vocals and glockenspiel. I'll link to him as well, yeah!

Also, I have got a special offer, because you watched this far and that makes you rally cool and I like you. If you buy anything off DFTBA in the next 48 hours, including my CD, which has that song on it, then you'll get 10% off if you put in the promo code "hotfornerimon", because Alan said I was allowed to choose any promo code I wanted, so I chose that one. So if you type in "hotfornerimon" on dftba.com on anything you buy in the next two days, then you'll get 10% off.

Yaay, thanks for watching! Bye!!
