Chris Martin said it best. I’m too in love to let it go.
“And the tears come streaming down your face
when you lose something you can’t replace,
when you love someone but it goes to waste.
Could it be worse?”
Please fix me.
A killer song for you.
SOME DEVIL
Dave Matthews
One last kiss, one only
Then I’ll let you go
Hard for you I’ve fallen
But you can’t break my fall
I’m broken don’t break me
When I hit the ground
Some devil some angel
Has got me to the bones
You said always and forever
Now I believe you baby
You said always and forever
Is such a long and lonely time
Too drunk and still drinking
It’s just the way I feel
It’s alright
Is what you told me
Cause what we had was so beautiful
I feel heavy like floating
At the bottom of the sea
You said always and forever
Now I believe you baby
You said always and forever
Is such a long and lonely time
Some devil is stuck inside of me
Why can’t I set it free
I wish, I wish I was dead and you were grieving
Just so that you could know
Some angel is stuck inside of me
But I cannot set you free
You said always and forever
Now I believe you baby
You said always and forever
Such a long and lonely time
Stuck inside of me
17 years, 15 days, and counting. I’ve known and loved you for more than half of my entire lifetime now. You will prove to be my doom, my greatest hope and my most desperate falling. But I accept that because no one else — no other love — is more precious to me.
Belated happy anniversary, darling.
MY THIEF
Elvis Costello, Burt Bacharach
When I go to sleep, you become my thief
Why don’t you steal what you can keep?
But you won’t let me be
You break into my dreams
And every day seems different
Sometimes I pretend you’ll come back again
And you’ll console the heart you stole
Have pity on the man
Who knows that you have gone
And has begun to break down
I feel almost possessed
So long as I don’t lose this glorious distress then
You can take all I have left
I know it’s over
If you can’t be my lover
Be my thief
I’m so drowsy now, I’ll unlock the door
What fades in time will hurt much more
So here’s that happy scene
Where you come back to me
It’s only found in fiction
I feel almost possessed
So long as I don’t lose this glorious distress then
You can take all I have left
I know it’s over
If you can’t be my lover
Be my thief.
THE SONG REMEMBERS WHEN
Trisha Yearwood
I was standing at the counter, I was waiting for the change
When I heard that old familiar music start
It was like a lighted match had been tossed into my soul,
It was like a dam had broken in my heart
After taking every detour, getting lost and losing track
So that even if I wanted, I could not find my way back
After driving out the memory of the way things might have been
After I’d forgotten all about us, the song remembers when
. . .
I guess something must have happened and we must have said goodbye
And my heart must have been broken, though I can’t recall just why
The song remembers when
Well, for all the miles between us, and for all the time that’s passed
You would think I haven’t gotten very far
And I hope my hasty heart will forgive me just this once
If I stop to wonder how on earth you are
But that’s just a lot of water underneath the bridge I burned
And there’s no use in backtracking around corners I have turned
Still I guess some things we bury are just bound to rise again
For even if the whole world has forgotten, the song remembers when
Even if the whole world has forgotten,
The song remembers when.
