And we sing this morning that wonderful and grand old message.
Well, I don't know about you, but I never get tired about it
Number 99: Just as I am.
I'm a mountain that has been moved
I'm a river that is all dried up
I'm an ocean nothing floats on
I'm a sky that nothing wants to fly in
I'm a sun that doesn't burn hot
I'm a moon that never shows its face
I'm a mouth that doesn't smile
I'm a word that no one ever wants to say
I don't wanna be
He wasn't finding anybody when he was on a shelf
I saw him in my dream
I'm a mountain that has been moved
I'm a fugitive that has no legs to run
I'm a preacher with no pulpit
Spewing a sermon that goes on and on
Well if we take all these things and we bury the past
And we'll pray that they turn to seeds, to roots and then grass
It'd be all right, it's all right
It'd be easier that way
Or if the sky opened up and started pouring rain
Like he knew it was time to start things over again
It'd be all right, it's all right
It'd be easier that way
(Don't mean a thing)
Well if we take all these things and we bury the past
(But you won't go in the ground)
And we'll pray that they turn into seeds, to roots and then grass
(You won't take steps towads the light)
It'd be all right, it's all right
(Feel the flow)
It'd be easier that way
(Don't say you won't get scared and leave)
Or if the sky opened up and started pouring rain
(And don't you mention all the good there would be)
Like he knew it was time to start things over again
(Don't say he's alone)
It'd be all right, it's all right
(Feel the flow)
It'd be easier that way | 083o6BTQGwgM2L49 | 3530822107858792395 | I'M A MOUNTAIN THAT HAS BEEN MOVEDand jesus said to them, "you of such little faith. i say the truth. if your faith is the size of a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'move from here to there,' and it will move; nothing will be impossible for you." matthew 17:20ya dig? kgrlon October 07, 2009 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

Don't know what to sayBut you won't go in the ground(We all throw in our rights for this/wrongs)*(Been there before/three days to bloom/greatest of loves)*Don't say you won't be scared then leaveDon't mention all the good there would beDon't say he's alone(Been there before/three days to bloom/greatest of loves)*For the most part, I believe these lyrics are correct. They seem to fit the song's theme, also. This song's about growing and learning from life, essentially starting anew; hence the title name "Daisy". This interpretation seems to compliment the actual ending lyrics nicely. I think Jesse's trying to mimic a conversation between two people in this last part. The main lyrics are the words of the hopeless person, whereas the background lyrics are the spoken words of Jesse, whom is giving advice. The hopeless person seems to have trouble getting over something in his/her life, and just can't let go. He/she states that"If the sky opened up and started pouring rain, like HE knew it was time to start things over again"and"Well, if we take all these things and we bury them fastAnd we pray that they turn to seeds, to roots and then grassIt'd be all right, yes alrightIt'd be easier that way"signifying that if only these things could happen, then he/she could finally move on, forget about it, and grow from it. Looking at the background vocals, or at least what I've perceived them to be (roughly), it seems as though they're directed towards the first person. Jesse's telling him/her to stop being stubborn and scared, and actually conquer this obstacle rather than talk about it. He's giving sound advice, because he's been there before. For example, the first person mentions if he could just bury these things, it'd be fine. Jesse replies by admitting the fact that the only thing that he should be throwing into the ground, is himself/herself. Metaphorically, I think this is somewhat an allusion to a concept similiar to Jesus and his resurrection. It's as if he's stating that |

The first part of the song does bring about a tone of a hopeless person. A feeling of being trapt and hostile towards everything around him.the voice in the song of the boy brings a feeling of nostalgia, "he doesn't want to be" he doesn't ever wanna be like the person feeling so hopeless. The process described in later verses reminds me of the repetitiveness of the cycle in the world. Everyone must endure the tough depression, to blossom at the end. theDrunkPianiston November 06, 2009 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

Well, I don't know about you, but I never get tired about it
Number 99: Just as I am.
I'm a mountain that has been moved
I'm a river that is all dried up
I'm an ocean nothing floats on
I'm a sky that nothing wants to fly in
I'm a sun that doesn't burn hot
I'm a moon that never shows its face
I'm a mouth that doesn't smile
I'm a word that no one ever wants to say
I don't wanna be
He wasn't finding anybody when he was on a shelf
I saw him in my dream
I'm a mountain that has been moved
I'm a fugitive that has no legs to run
I'm a preacher with no pulpit
Spewing a sermon that goes on and on
Well if we take all these things and we bury the past
And we'll pray that they turn to seeds, to roots and then grass
It'd be all right, it's all right

Except that 3rd line is really hard to make out. But good job with the rest. You know this is my favorite song on the album and I didn't realize the underlying verse was there for sometime. SafeCrackeron January 07, 2010 Link2 Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. @SafeCrackerthe sentence isn't even close to grammatically correct when it's pope. "i'm a preacher with no pope and spewing a sermon that goes on and on..."needs a subject for the second sentence. any inclusion of the word "and" screws it grammatically. "i'm a preacher with no pulpit, spewing a sermon that goes on and on..."is grammatically correct. bn tends to have good grammar. aboyinastitch89on January 08, 2010Thank you for that Captain Dramatic, but I understand english and how to use it. In terms of songwriting, grammar has little value. Yes, Brand New does tend to use correct grammar in some parts of their songs. This doesn't mean that it is the standard of their songwriting. Looking through some of their other songs you'll see grammar was their least concern. But I will concede to you and your grand display of grammar on an internet message board. Well done. 'Pulpit' it is. |

If it is 'guess..' the guess is said very awkwardly an not clearly, though I guess that not uncommon, and it could does go with/makes sense to - 'easier that way' - saying it's easier than visiting or such...but it just doesn't seem to go with the rest of the lyrics. |

It'd be easier that way | 083o6BTQGwgM2L49 | 3530822107858792395 | I believe Daisy is about Jesse being unhappy with the world in general. In the first part it sounds like he feel unappreciated for what he does and unwanted. The second part "Well if we take all these things and we bury them fastand we'll pray that they turn to seeds, to roots,and then grassit'd be alright. It's alright, It'd easier that way. Or if the sky opened up and started pouring rainlike they knew he was trying to start things over againit'd be alright. It's alright, It'd easier that way." Is about restarting all of humanity in Earth. Jesse thinks that god is also unhappy with the human race. The reference to The great flood in the Bible with the "pouring rain" is about god wanting to start over. Burying things is about getting rid of all of our sins and praying they dont come back. Jesse thinks it would be easier to get rid of everything or start over completely than to try and change "it'd be easier that way"AdamGHKindaon May 01, 2010 Link1 Reply Log in to replyThere was an error. @AdamGHKindaI may be mistaken but I thought Vin wrote this song? not that it makes much a difference in your interpretation, replace vin with jesse.

By metaphorically placing himself in the different shoes, he's telling how he feels about the destruction he's caught in. The bridge/outro could be a reference to a funeral. In this case, "take all these things and bury them fast" could mean not only putting away the corpse but all the feelings left behind. Prayer goes on at funerals; therefore the whole "seeds... roots... grass..." line could mean praying that the person lives on somewhere. The sky knowing it's time to start over strengthens this. All the while, he repeats that it's alright, it'll be easier this way. The intro gives the song a religious subtext. Also, I dunno if it'll help, but the original poem:"Just as I am - without one plea,But that Thy blood was shed for me,And that Thou bidst me come to Thee,-O Lamb of God, I come! Just as I am - and waiting notTo rid my soul of one dark blot,To Thee, whose blood can cleanse each spot,-O Lamb of God, I come! Just as I am - though toss'd aboutWith many a conflict, many a doubt,Fightings and fears within, without,-O Lamb of God, I come! Just as I am - poor, wretched, blind;Sight, riches, healing of the mind,Yea, all I need, in Thee to find,-O Lamb of God, I come! Just as I am - Thou wilt receive,Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;Because Thy promise I believe,-O Lamb of God, I come! Just as I am - Thy love unknownHas broken every barrier down;Now to be Thine, yea, Thine alone,-O Lamb of God, I come! Just as I am - of that free loveThe breadth, length, depth, and height to prove,Here for a season, then above,-O Lamb of God, I come!"

But now it's sort of coming together like I figured it would eventually. At first i thought this song was just kind of repetitive laments over and over again. I sort of understand it now that I caught the reference to the great flood. Also thanks ^ for posting the "Just As I AM" poem. That poem's mood is a contrast to the rest of the song but I think it's supposed to make us think about salvation. BrandNewman55on July 20, 2010 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

It'd be easier that way | 083o6BTQGwgM2L49 | 3530822107858792395 | Alllright. I'm super late joining the "conversation" here, but I'm taking a somewhat simplistic approach in my interpretation of this one. Because it begins with the clip of a preacher introducing the hymn "Just As I Am," there are clear themes of sins/flaws paired with those sins/flaws being washed away in the face of God's love. The entire song, in a way, makes me think of a desperate prayer; as if the person singing is admitting their personal flaws and shortcomings to God in a metaphorical sense. Basically, he's turning over his sinfulness to God by saying, "I'm none of the things I should be in Your sight" (i.e., "I'm a mountain that has been moved;" "I'm a preacher with no pulpit"). The imagery that the lyrics conjure up are at once desolate and depressing, but there's also a sense of hope because of the fact that there's room for new life and new growth from the old. "If we take all these things" (i.e., all of these flaws and sins) and "bury them fast" the singer is saying that something good, and new and pure can come to be in the place of the sin/flaws. At first, the song seemed more depressing than it really is; partly because the singer keeps saying "if"--as in "IF" we take these flaws and start over; or "IF" God just flooded the world and started over Himself, then maybe all of these sins/flaws/shortcomings would be bearable. But the point is more about the fact that God is all about forgiving sins and that whole idea of renewal, so no matter how bad things might get/seem, there's always a chance to "start things over again." evehasfallenon July 23, 2010 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

As a mythographer (someone who studies world myth and religion) it is interesting that Jesse chose a mountain, river, ocean, sky, sun, and moon for the analogies, as all of those were once personified as deities in almost all of the Earth's ancient cultures. The god of the mountain, the god of the river, the god of the sky, and all the others also share a common thread though: they're all dead and gone. A sun that doesn't burn hot is a dead sun; a moon that doesn't reflect light is one that has no sun; a mouth that doesn't smile, and a word that no one wants to say: dead; dead and gone. From a mythographers perspective these two verses are all about the things that we, as a people, once put our faith in, and now no longer believe in.

But, like the "dead gods" of the ancient faiths, Jesse compares his faith to a preacher without a pulpit, an endless sermon without a congregation. These notions make him a "fugitive", a heathen, a faithless among the faithful. This, however, segues into the ending of the song. Well, if I take all these things and then bury them fastAnd then p |

[Recording:]And we sing this morning that wonderful and grand old message. And I don't know about you but I never get tired of itNumber 99: Just As I Am. RECORDING:This is a hymn, the main theme of this hymn mimics the thoughts of the narrator, and his hopes/fears/realizations about whom he is and who he becomes throughout the song. The hymn is all about sacrifice, forgiveness, and the repenting process of washing oneself of a sin. The words of the hymn as listed below. Just as I am without one plea but thatThy blood was shed for meAnd that Thou bid'st me come to TheeOh lamb of God I come I comeJust as I am and waiting notTo rid my soul of one dark blotTo Thee who's blood can cleanse each spotOh lamb of God I come I comeJust as I am Lord Thou tossed aboutWith many a conflict and many a doubtFightings fears within and withoutOh lamb of God I come I comeJust as I am Thou wilt receiveWill dwell come pardon cleanse relieveBecause Thy promise I believeOh lamb of God I come I comeVERSE ONE:This verse is about change, for the worse, I think the male narrator of this song has more than likely began an affair. A mountain that has been moved is a theme throughout the song and it directly signifies change. All of the following lines are considered negative change, A river dried (dried river, think unable to cry, an emotionless, empty person which lacks substance), an ocean nothing floats on (lonely with his secret), sky nothing wants to fly (again lonely, nobody wants to be with someone like him, nobody wants to be with a cheater for example) Sun that doesn’t burn hot (cold hearted), moon that never shows this |

DAISYis a reference to one of the most controversial political advertisements of all-time. It was a television ad that only aired once in Lyndon B. Johnson's presidential campaign against Barry Goldwater in 1964. Wiki it for more info. I'm not going to waste time explaining the ad when it's easily YOUTUBE accessible (type in Daisy political ad). But a few things of note for potential nonbelievers. 1. In the commercial, you'll see a girl picking the pedals off a Daisy. 2. She's counting up, And she stops at #9 (Daisy is #9 on the CD). 3. Lyndon Johnson states VERY important quotes in the ad that DIRECTLY RELATE TO THE ALBUM. Here are the quotes:""These are the stakes! To make a world in which all of God's children can live, or to go into the dark."" It would be insane to say that line is not directly related to the album, but... If that doesn't convince you enough...check out the next line Lyndon Johnson says:""We must either love each other, or we must die!"" That line, which is best illustrated in BOUGHT A BRIDE (in my opinion the most important song on the CD), is the CENTRAL THEME of the entire CD.

And we sing this morning that wonderful and grand old message.
Well, I don't know about you, but I never get tired about it
Number 99: Just as I am.
I'm a mountain that has been moved
I'm a river that is all dried up
I'm an ocean nothing floats on
I'm a sky that nothing wants to fly in
I'm a sun that doesn't burn hot
I'm a moon that never shows its face
I'm a mouth that doesn't smile
I'm a word that no one ever wants to say
I don't wanna be
He wasn't finding anybody when he was on a shelf
I saw him in my dream
I'm a mountain that has been moved
I'm a fugitive that has no legs to run
I'm a preacher with no pulpit
Spewing a sermon that goes on and on
Well if we take all these things and we bury the past
And we'll pray that they turn to seeds, to roots and then grass
It'd be all right, it's all right
It'd be easier that way

They write beautiful lyrics that have meaning to them,do you honestly think you can figure out exactly what they mean? You can't. They purposely use vague discriptions to make you wonder, to get you to listen closely. They don't put the lyrics in the CD booklet on purpose like everyone else does for this exact reason. Compare Brand New to Salvador Dali,both of their work is so beautiful and inspiring,but we'll never know the true meaning. So stop fooling yourselves,you're all self righteous and wasting your time.

Just free love | 087FaYjmGug8BP5A | 40338 | So I just signed up on this page to share my point of view. Like many, I went through a recent bad break up. In general you could say that you only hear things in a song that you want to hear. So this song for me has nothing to do with sex or one night stands. Zero. Here's my go:---If you've been hiding from loveI can understand where you're coming fromIf you've suffered enoughI can understand what you're thinking ofI can see the pain that you're frightened of---The author directs the song to no specific person. It is mentioned for everyone who has gone through the same things he was. You only hide from things that you are afraid of. In this case it is love that led him to pain and wanted him to never feel this pain again at some point. He was /is afraid of experiencing the same pain he had from a breakup once he falls in love again. -- And I'm only hereTo bring you free loveLet's make it clearThat this is free loveNo hidden catchNo strings attachedJust free love --The author wants to give hope to the listener. He wants to bring him free love. And by "love" he actually means the feeling of love. The good things you feel when you love somebody and get the same back. As both he and the listener experienced bad things that was caused by the condition of loving someone, he points out that this kind of love comes with no strings attached and no hidden catch. Its free. You don't have to pay for it in any way (There is also the english expression "to pay for something" in a emotional way)--I've been running like youNow you understand why I'm running scaredI've been searching for truthAnd I haven't been getting anywhere--I didn't really get that part until i read it over and over again. The first part is obviously clear. He tells the listener to trust him as he was going through the exact same stuff he is in right now. He wants to gain trust so that you believe in him and follow the same path he did after the breakup / bad feelings. The second part is more complicated. At first, it seems like that it was pointless to sea |

Just free love | 087FaYjmGug8BP5A | 40338 | They're two people who became friends because they'd just had terrible break-ups with their respective partners. They've known each other for a little while, they care about each other, they're lonely, and want some sexual companionship. But they're not quite ready for another relationship, so he's saying "let's do this. and let's not make it complicated by thinking about feelings and how our friendship could be affected. we'll just go back to the way we were." that's the way i see it anyway. happiestgirlon January 29, 2011 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

Just free love | 087FaYjmGug8BP5A | 40338 | I like to think this song has a Zen slant to it. DM has been a much more spiritual band in their later years. The practice of Zen ends suffering in ones life. Without daily practice, it leads to great pain and fear. Freelove is our true nature. The messages we have in our head typically have us running scared from our true nature. If we can listen to the truthful voice inside us, it’s nothing but love. And it’s free as it comes from within. Without tapping into this inner voice, we truly aren’t getting anywhere. There’s no hidden catch, no strings attached - just a loving voice inside us to bring us free love! I think DM is over the days of signing about petty relationships and casual sex. toddcaffeyon February 24, 2019 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |
Our love is rock steady
Rock steady, rock steady
Our love is rock steady
Love is like a punishment
Homegirl here to represent
So innocently you seem to come my way
While Tinkerbell and Cupid play
They sit there and laugh
I sit here and I can't believe my eyes
You found me at last
But wait and see how it'll agonize
A real love survives a rock steady vibe
A real love survives a rock steady vibe
Rock steady, rock steady
Our love is so rock steady
Rock steady
Steady now, stop rocking it
It's a delicate environment
Retire the sleeping is a Shanti love
Be careful now don't wake it up
It's never gonna last
It's never gonna make it back alive
So how can we relax
I really hope that we will actually survive

Rock steady, rock steady | 08WR53LGwIIC5rOS | 40198 | I think this song is about a relationship where two people are in love, and the woman (Gwen Stefani) in the relationship is telling the man to stop questioning their love. She is saying that they shouldn't read into it too much, but to take it for what it is. Like, they've made it this far, so stop trying to question it, i.e. "rock"-ing it. She's just glad they've met, she's not looking much farther into the future than that. She believes the love won't last, even though she hopes it will. She also seems to believe that their love goes up and down between problems and being just fine-"steady"-and that a real love can overcome even the biggest problems. I think this song is about her hopes that their love can survive the "rock steady vibe"-the not so steady, more or less turbulent times. melodramaticon May 13, 2002 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

But that doesn't necessarily mean that it's easy to be in love, with love come so many doubts, questions, situations, and problems here and there. Regardless of it being rocksteady, it is very delicate. Any little thing that happens could damage and rock it and make one think "it's never gonna last," and "hope that it actually survives"...and it does when it is true love. wckdloveon August 13, 2002 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

It basically is trying to describe how one can feel insecure about their love because of the many problems they have. Shes basically saying that the only way they'll survive this is if they 'stop rocking it' because theyre in a 'delacate environment'. But she really hopes that through everything, their love will survive. ohh_geeon September 29, 2007 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |
Sunlight dances through the leaves
Soft winds stir the sighing trees
Lying in the warm grass
Feel the sun upon your face
Elven songs and endless nights
Sweet wine and soft relaxing lights
Time will never touch you
Here in this enchanted place
I've traveled now for many miles
It feels so good to see the smiles of
Friends who never left your mind
When you were far away
From the golden light of coming dawn
Till the twilight when the sun is gone
We treasure every season
And every passing day
You feel there's something calling you
You're wanting to return
To where the misty mountains rise and friendly fires burn
A place you can escape the world
Where the dark lord cannot go
Peace of mind and sanctuary by loud water's flow
We feel the coming of a new day
Dark gives way to light a new way
Stop here for a while until the world
The world calls you away
Yet you know I've had the feeling
Standing with my senses reeling
This is the place to grow old 'til
I reach my final day
You feel there's something calling you
You're wanting to return
To where the misty mountains rise and friendly fires burn
A place you can escape the world
Where the dark lord cannot go
Peace of mind and sanctuary by loud water's flow | 08dDspNuBDh8GOqV | 3458764513820550914 | "Rivendell" refers to the home of the elves in the "Lord of the Rings" books. Neal Peart was a huge J.R.R Tolkien enthusiast, and he uses references from those books to talk about his utopia, a place where you are totally at peace and completely safe. In the books, Rivendell was the one place that Sauron (the dark lord)'s powers had no effect on. Tolkien decribes Rivendell in unbelievable detail in the books, it's really quite amazing. The films also capture it beautifully. Perhaps this was Tolkien's own idea of Utopia. |

Gonna come at you fast
I'm driving out of control and getting ready to crash
Won't stop, shaking up what I can

So suck it down like a man

Up to my old tricks
But it won't last forever

Out to save the world
And it keeps gettin' better

I make it sweet on the lips
I'll simply knock you out

I wake up fine and dandy
But then by the time I find it handy
To rip my heart apart and start
Planning my crash landing
I go up, up, up, up, up to the ceiling
Then I feel my soul start leaving
Like an old man's hair receding
I'm pleading, Please, oh please
On my knees repeatedly asking
Why it's got to be like this?
Is this living free?
I don't wanna be the one, be the one
To have the sun's blood on my hands
I'll tell the moon
Take this weapon, forged in darkness
Some see a pen, I see harpoon
I'll stay awake
'Cause the dark's not taking prisoners tonight
Why am I not scared in the morning?
I don't hear those voices calling
I must have kicked them out
I must have kicked them out
I swear, I heard demons yelling
Those crazy words they were spelling
They told me I was gone
They told me I was gone
But I'll tell 'em
Why won't you let me go?
Do I threaten all your plans?
I'm insignificant
Please, tell 'em
You have no plans for me
I will set my soul on fire
What have I become?
I'll tell 'em
On the eve of a day that's forgotten and fake
As the trees, they await, and clouds anticipate
The start of a day when we put on our face
A mask that portrays that we don't need grace
On the eve of a day that is bigger than us
But we open our eyes, 'cause we're told that we must
And the trees wave their arms and the clouds try to plead
Desperately yelling, there's something we need
I'm not free, I asked forgiveness three times
Same amount that I denied, I three-time MVP'd this crime
I'm afraid to tell you who I adore
Won't tell you who I'm singing towards
Metaphorically, I'm a whore, and that's denial number four
I'll stay awake
'Cause the dark's not taking prisoners tonight
(Oh-oh-oh)
Why am I not scared in the morning?
I don't hear those voices calling
I must have kicked them out
I must have kicked them out
I swear, I heard demons yelling
Those crazy words they were spelling
They told me I was gone
They told me I was gone
But I'll tell 'em
Why won't you let me go?
Do I threaten all your plans?
I'm insignificant
Please, tell 'em
You have no plans for me
I will set my soul on fire
What have I become?
I'm sorry
You have no plans for me
I will set my soul on fire
What have I become?
I'll tell 'em
I'll tell 'em
I'll tell 'em
I'll tell 'em
Please, tell 'em
You, have no plans for me
I will set my soul on fire
What have I become?
Im sorry | 09AOCIB5yktoz8B5 | 3530822107858882905 | OK, so I heard Tyler say in an interview that this song IS Twenty One Pilots. That it summarizes who they are. I thought… hmm… really? And after looking at they lyrics, I'm going to take a guess at why he said that...As anyone who knows their lyrics has figured out, Tyler has been tormented by negative thoughts and even thoughts of suicide. In Christian imagery, and several of their songs, these "evil thoughts" are represented by demons (whether you believe them to be true demons or just psychological attacks from a darkness within). And in Christian belief, demons attack those that they see as a threat. This song is basically saying - hey, maybe Tyler is being attacked because he is a threat - because he has the capacity/means to be an instrument of good (through his pen / the band's music). There's a purpose for him on this earth. And in the song, he's crying out to a higher power (God) saying, "Aaaah!! Why? I don't want this on my shoulders! I don't want this purpose! I don't want this pen! Tell the demons you have no plans for me! I don't want to do this! This isn't the freedom you promised!" And in the end, he tells God that he's "sorry." He realizes the plans that God has for him, to be a mouthpiece of hope - to encourage young people to think, and to survive, and to live. And that's why this song is so important to Twenty One Pilots. (And as others have said, the three denials (echoing the story of Peter) and the fourth denial about "not telling" whom he's singing toward (God/higher power) is something with which he struggles. He doesn't want to sing and write songs and perform for money and fame ("whore") - he wants to fulfill his purpose.) That's my interpretation. Not sure I got it right, but if I'm even close (and I think I am), then it's just another reason to love this band. |
Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh | 09I4YQcdsw1PVXh8 | 3530822107858719979 | To Me, This Song Is About Two People Who Used To Be Friends And Then They Became More But They Don't See Each Other Very Much, Though They Always Talk To Each Other So Its Like There Is An Ocean Between Them But They Still Hear Each Other. Then Where It Says The Part About Sailing Through The Sea To An Island, The Sea Is The Barrier That Keeps Them From Meeting And The Island Is Where They Finally Can Physically Be With Each Other And When They Are Together, It's Like Paradise.

The guy telling that i am trying to say that i am in love with you but i dont have the courage. Where he says "Across the water across the deep blue ocean Under the open sky oh my, baby I'm trying".He says he tries to tell it but he prefers her to admit it first. When the girls turn comes, she says i do understand your feelings deeply in my heart but i also could not admit it. In video i think that's why they are in different places. Both of them know that they are perfect for each other but they cant say it to face-to-face. mojornoon February 06, 2011 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh | 09I4YQcdsw1PVXh8 | 3530822107858719979 | I use to listen to this song when my husband was deployed. Just listen to the song or read the lyrics and you'll understand why I feel like this song was meant for a deployment. It's absolutely beautiful! "Do you hear me,I'm talking to youAcross the water across the deep blue oceanUnder the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying"Soldiers can't always call home when they are deployed. So every call you get from your loved one is absolutely amazing! I use to get messages from my husband that would make my day. I know he tried his hardest to let me know he was okay every day. But it's not possible for that to happen every day. "Boy I hear you in my dreamsI feel your whisper across the seaI keep you with me in my heartYou make it easier when life gets hard." That is just beautiful. I use to wear a necklace when my husband was deployed. It was a set of praying hands with the Serenity prayer on the back and his unit crest on it. It was always near to my heart. "I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friendLucky to have been where I have beenLucky to be coming home again." My husband is my best friend and I'm so in love with him. And I'm LUCKY for the things that I have gone through in my past (lucky to have been where I have been) because it lead me to him. And we were SO lucky and blessed to have him come home alive and well. "They don't know how long it takesWaiting for a love like thisEvery time we say goodbyeI wish we had one more kissI'll wait for you I promise you, I will." This has got to be my favorite part in the song. Deployments drag on for both the soldier and the spouse and it's hard on both. And of course, there are multiple deployments so it's special to have someone at home in the states waiting for you and someone who cares about how you are and what you are doing for our country. Someone who will never take you for granted and cherishes each and every minute that they've ever spent with you. You remember the last kiss and hold it dear to your heart. The deployments may be long (up to a year depending on which b |

Jason Mraz is more than a good artist in my opinion... and hopefully his song will never be in the same playlist as Metro Station's "Shake It", ahaha. gotyourfaceon July 29, 2008 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

Lucky to be coming home again
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you

Ur not necessarily lucky if ur in love with ur best friend. Your lucky if ur in love with ur best friend and he/she loves you back, otherwise, you can be a miserable wreck. stevenlourieon July 02, 2009i don't think the song means he fell in love with his best friend.. i think what he is trying to say is that his girlfriend is also his best friend.. idk it's just different..xxpennylane091on October 17, 2009yeah i agree with pennylane. he just means he's lucky that the person he's in love with is not only his girlfriend, but his best friend as well. He thinks of her as his best friend now, but it doesn't necessarily mean they were best friends before he fell in love with her. CptDarlingon December 02, 2009i disagree. i started dating my best friend 2 years ago and he's still considered my best friend and we are still dating. friendships can form into relationships. my personal opinion is in order for a relationship to be true and actually work, you need to be friends for a quite sometime in order for something to last. i dont think that my relationship would have lasted this long if we hadnt gone through what we did together. and your best friend can love you back. and big deal if he feel in love with his best friend. theyll have a relationship no one else will be able to have with him or her. i think this song is amazing and makes me smile every time i hear it! IAHer234on March 17, 2010i completely agree with IAher234. i mean, you can be in love with your best friend and it doesn't mean if you love someone who's not your best friend that it's a bad idea or anything. |

They mesh perfectly, just so laid back and chilled. To me its like they're waiting to see each other. Both are best friends and have known each other for so long and finally realize they love each other, so are headed home to finally see each other after so long. That's what I got from it, especially in the lines,'they don't know how long it takes waiting for a love like this' That's also one of my many favorite lines.

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again

Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh | 09I4YQcdsw1PVXh8 | 3530822107858719979 | This song is just lovely, without being corny, which nowadays it's a rare thing to hear. It's different, and that's why I like it very much. To me, it might be be interpreted according to your own situation, it might refer to being in love with your best friend (which I once did, meaning "love" in the middle of a friendship) or just beggining a relationship with somebody who day by day becomes such an important part of your life that eventually and naturally becomes your best friend, your partner in life. I think that Jason wrote it in those terms, they love each other and are happy, relaxed and living it easy, and being away he finds out she is as much a lover as a friend to him. I can relate to this last interpretation, I have a very kind boyfriend who won me over by being always there for me, who slowly has also become my mate, my very best friend.

Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh | 09I4YQcdsw1PVXh8 | 3530822107858719979 | This song always reminds me of a failed relationship I had with my best friend. She asked me out once and I said no, because I didn't know her that well yet. I didn't tell her that I loved her back, but it was pretty obvious once the summer started. We hung out 24/7; I went to her house often, and she went to mine; it's like we lived together. I could tell she still liked me, because no teenage girl asks her best guy friend to go on a date with her for no reason. However, she met this one guy a few months later, I believe he is at the most 2 to 3 years older than she is, and she never told me about him. I mean, I met him before, but I was always told he never liked her back. They had a very secret relationship, but she kept flirting and talking with me (I know that when a crush talks to teenage boys, they think it is flirting, but this was for real.). After holding it in for so long, I told her how I felt, and she said she was dating this guy for a few months by that point. I was upset because she lied to me that she wasn't dating anybody before, and she drifted away from all her old friends and completely changed for the worse. She turned into this suicidal emo nutjob, and drama took over her life. Her boyfriend's sister obsessed over her and turned out to be genderfluid, and not a normal genderfluid person. I just apologized for everything I've done. Being jealous of her boyfriend, at one point being homophobic, lying to her, and I said that I don't deserve as good as a friend as she was, and that I wanted to be like we used to be. This used to be one of her favorite songs, so I've been listening to the lyrics all the time. ledzeppelin196on August 23, 2016 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh | 09I4YQcdsw1PVXh8 | 3530822107858719979 | Thinking a long distance relationship will work is naive. The truth is, your boyfriend will get drunk one lonely night at a party and spot some foxy little dame from across the room. She'll give him the "come hither" wink, the flirtatious + overly drawn out "HAHAHAHA"s at his bad jokes and then the green light; then they'll find a cozy room in the back and do what rabbits do. You'll be forgotten. People are just animals and to think otherwise is childish. As for this song, it harmonizes decently. Both of the singers are good and don't try and yodel which is a plus (I'm looking at you, Beyonce; you too Mariah). The idea of it is sweet and innocent, but unrealistic. No relationship is that perfect. That's fine though. Music exists so we can enjoy a lapse in reality. And because it sounds nice sometimes. And I think they became best friends after love, because friends first love second is often disastrous. Doctorofloveon May 07, 2009 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |
I awoke on impact
Under surveillance from the camera eye
Searching high and low
The criminal mind found at the scene of the crime
Handcuffed and blind, I didn't do it
She said she loved me
I guess I never knew
But do we ever, ever really know?
She said she'd meet me on the other side
But I knew right then, I'd never find her
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
It's never worth the pain that you feel
No more nightmares, I've seen them all
From the day I was born, they've haunted my every move
Every open hand's there to push and shove
No time for love it doesn't matter
She made a difference
I guess she had a way
Of making every night seem bright as day
Now I walk in shadows, never see the light
She must have lied 'cause she never said goodbye
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
I'll just pretend she never was real
I don't believe in love
I need to forget her face, I see it still
I don't believe in love
It's never worth the pain that you feel
No chance for contact
There's no raison d'etre
My only hope is one day I'll forget
The pain of knowing what can never be
With or without love it's all the same to me

It's never worth the pain that you feel | 09KsPOlYFGFhhNyc | 14756 | The female character in the story, Mary, just died. Nikky believes it was suicide I think, though the songs themselves never actually say how she was killed. But Nikky goes into a depression, I mean alot of us can relate to this type of thing. We've all been in love and lost someone, maybe not through death but just a bad break up. Muzzyon April 25, 2007 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

It's never worth the pain that you feel | 09KsPOlYFGFhhNyc | 14756 | Along with the album story this song could be about accepting love in the negative way. It's like be aware of how rotten love between man and woman is. The man who is telling the story realised that this kind of love we have in this world is sad because there are break ups and disagreements so love never will be good for long time. He has only hope which lies in future but while he is depressed he also don't believe in life after this one. Jack666on October 31, 2017 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |

I'll just pretend she never was real
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
It's never worth the pain that you feel | 09KsPOlYFGFhhNyc | 14756 | MemoryThis song has totally influenced how I feel about the concept of linear, monogamous, soul-mate, romantic love in the mainstream sense. "I'll just pretend she never was real" was what I did when my best friend of 9 years broke up with me. Because friend-breakups are just as bad as relationship-breakups, sometimes. spacedyeon August 06, 2012 LinkNo Replies Log in to replyThere was an error. |
I awoke on impact
Under surveillance from the camera eye
Searching high and low
The criminal mind found at the scene of the crime
Handcuffed and blind, I didn't do it
She said she loved me
I guess I never knew
But do we ever, ever really know?
She said she'd meet me on the other side
But I knew right then, I'd never find her
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
It's never worth the pain that you feel
No more nightmares, I've seen them all
From the day I was born, they've haunted my every move
Every open hand's there to push and shove
No time for love it doesn't matter
She made a difference
I guess she had a way
Of making every night seem bright as day
Now I walk in shadows, never see the light
She must have lied 'cause she never said goodbye
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
I'll just pretend she never was real
I don't believe in love
I need to forget her face, I see it still
I don't believe in love
It's never worth the pain that you feel
No chance for contact
There's no raison d'etre
My only hope is one day I'll forget
The pain of knowing what can never be
With or without love it's all the same to me
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
I'll just pretend she never was real
I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love

It ruined the story with a bunch of spiritual crap. I love this album though. |
Momma never told me how to love
Daddy never told me how to feel
Momma never told me how to touch
Daddy never showed me how to heal
Momma never set a good example
Daddy never held momma's hand
Momma found everything hard to handle
Daddy never stood up like a man
I walked alone, broken
Emotionally frozen
Getting it on
Getting it wrong
How do you love someone
Without getting hurt
How do you love someone
Without crawling in the dirt
So far in my life
Clouds have blocked the sun
How do you love, how do you love someone
How do you love, how do you love someone
I was always the chosen child
The biggest scandal I became
They told me I'd never survive
But survival's my middle name
I walked alone, hoping
Just barely coping
Getting it on
Getting it wrong
How do you love someone
Without getting hurt
How do you love someone
Without crawling in the dirt
So far in my life
Clouds have blocked the sun
How do you love, how do you love someone
How do you love, how do you love someone
It's hard to talk
To see what's deep inside
It's hard to tell the truth
When you've always lied
How do you love someone
Without getting hurt
How do you love someone
Without crawling in the dirt
So far in my life
Clouds have blocked the sun
How do you love, how do you love someone
How do you love someone
And make it last
How do you love someone (love someone)
Without tripping on the past
So far in my life
Clouds have blocked the sun
How do you love, how do you love someone
How do you love, how do you love someone, someone | 09dys4xGPz7QSAK8 | 3530822107858780026 | What I get from this song is that this girl is coming from a situation where her mom and dad do not have a good relationship ("Momma never set a good example, daddy never held momma's hand"), so the only examples of love she's ever had have been really messed up. This then affects her own relationships, because she doesn't have good standards of love or what to expect or look for. Most likely she also doesn't have respect for herself, because she was never taught to demand or expect respect. So, she's been in all these crappy relationships (I've been walked around broken, emotionally frozen, getting it on, getting it wrong). Possibly they've all been physically oriented..."I was always the chosen child to be the scandal that I became" would refer to people judging her based on her home situation, and her growing up to fit that, probably by throwing herself at guys, looking for love in all the wrong places. "They told me I'd never survive, but survival's my middle name" Pretty much speaks for itself. She's had a tough life, she knows things are messed up, but she's spent her whole life fending for herself (probably because no one else cared enough to care for her), and she's going to keep on surviving any way she can. That's what I get from it anyway. |

I realize that it's not a shoujo anime (THANK GOD), but this song could still depict how she feels about love and everything. At least, this is what I always think of when I hear this song. |
