'Nothing's Bigger Than Love' is the title of a song by a band called My Favorite Highway. I've seen them in concert once, listen to their songs every once in a while, but honestly nothing that fanatical worth. But this song, for some reason, just won't leave my head.
I've never been in love, at least not that I consider love. I've been in unreturned-nonsensical-love. Which means I 'loved' someone who I knew was wrong for me, and I had no reason WHY I had these feelings toward him. But that's a story for another blog.
So why do these lyrics haunt me? I just feel like that my life is revolving around love right now. I've never been in a relationship, a guy has never asked me out, so I'm just. Waiting. But everything revolves around waiting. Waiting for my gentleman.
Woh wait, I bet a few of you are like "LIKE HONOR SOCIETY GENTLEMAN?!?!" Well I mean, no. I got that idea LONG before honor society was even around. But again, story for another blog.
Let me post the lyrics first, so you get an idea of this song.
We've all got scars as big as oursI don't even know how to comment on these lyrics. They speak for themselves. So. I'm going to leave it there for now.
A token for the pain we hide inside of us
Everyone's scared that somebody knows
You keep it inside, yeah, that's how it goes
If you've ever heard a beating heart
A rhythm for the songs we're too afraid to sing
Nobody here is perfectly fine
A delicate frame, a fragile design
If there's a hole in your heart
You gotta pull it together
It takes the courage to start
But now is better than never
It takes a push and a shove
Somehow it's never enough
And it's alarming how quick you could forget that
Nothing's bigger than love
Nothing's bigger than love
Nothing's bigger than love
All you need, all you need is love
Some people change and some just won't
You can't take back the words you wish you'd never said
Promises break and lovers will lie
You hold up your hands and let out a sigh
So smile right before you fall
And lay beside this mess and call it consequence
Somebody said that life isn't fair
When somebody else was saying a prayer
No one's taking me out
Nothing's pulling me down
I turn my head to the crowd
This love is big and it's loud
This is the car in the crash
This is the light in the flash
This is the answers you know
But you're just too scared ask
If there's a hole your heart
You gotta pull it together
It takes the courage to start
But now is better than never
It takes a push and a shove
Somehow it's never enough
And I KNOW, I never really explained WHY my blog is named what it is. Well, I did a little. But it's something I hope to figure out in Twenty-Ten :)
