Decide for yourself:

Beauty queen of only eighteen
She had some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her
She always belonged to someone else

I drove for miles and miles
And wound up at your door
I've had you so many times but somehow
I want more

I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
She will be loved

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I know I tend to get so insecure
It doesn't matter anymore

It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's compromise that moves us along
My heart is full and my door's always open
You can come anytime you want

I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain, oh
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
She will be loved

And She will be loved
And She will be loved

I know where you hide
Alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful

She will be loved (repeated)

Please don't try so hard to say good bye.

I still dont know if its sad or happy from reading this. However, the mood of the melody is quite sombre. This leads me to think its meant to be interpreted to be sad.

 

[paper cup]

It's so beautiful...currently my latest blog entry, ty jumb

Yellow by Coldplay.

There's a really sucky song by 5ive called something or other, that goes 'get on up, when you're down...' for those pop people out there *shudders*

 

[Loz#1]

I'm putting those lyrics in my LJ. They're lovely.

 

[Raiks]

Israel Kamakawiwo'ole - "Over The Rainbow/Wonderful World"

When it comes to music, you can't beat Louis Armstrong. Although it ain't Armstrong singing it, the Hawaian cover of it is pretty schmick nonetheless. It's the song from the end of 50 First Dates. Absolutely love it and gets me through any relationship crud...

 

[twiddla]

another few to inspire
Here without you - Matchbox 20
Singing in the Rain - Jamie Cullum version
Nightingale - Norah Jones
With or Without you - U2
Hands - Jewel
Twighlight -Vanessa Carlton (But don't go near ne of her others with a 10 foot pole)
Must agree with raiks - definitely What a Wonderful World

 

[Loz#1]

Do matchbox have a song called Here Without You?

 

[jumb]

*shrugs*

3 doors down do though.

 

[Loz#1]

Yeah, that's why I'm getting confused. I can't think of the matchbox one.

 

[~Dreamer]

i got one - billy holiday - gloomy sunday
moby - why does my heart feel so sad
frozen - madonna
bother - stone sour

 

[jumb]

'If you're gone' ?
'Unwell' goes alright too.

 

[Raiks]

Yeah, I was going to mention 'Unwell'

 

[Loz#1]

Unwell is a shit song. Waaaaaaaaaay overplayed.

 

[Raiks]

I've only heard it a few times, but thats what happens when you don't really listen to radio but cds.

 

[jumb]

Whatever! You're way overplayed!

 

[Loz#1]

Whatever! You're way overplayed!

I'm so insulted.

Raiks, thanks for the rep

 

[Rose_Punk]

My ultimate down in the dumps song is Colourblind by Counting Crows.

But back on topic: I must admit Tracy Chapman was good for relationship crud music.
