"A Girl Like That"

Backdated, archival post

---&---

When I listened to Colin Blunstone and Rod Argent's Out of the Shadows yester-day, one of the things I found was an instance of day and night parallelism in "A Girl Like That":
Spend my days without love
Spend my nights alone
I'm not sure if it's intentional, but it recalls the parallelism of "Walk in the light of day and talk the night away" from "I'll Call You Mine."  It's sort of opposite though in that "I'll Call You Mine" describes togetherness and that part of "A Girl Like That" is about solitude.
