Joanna Newsom – Good Intentions Paving Company Lyrics 14 years ago
This song really, really resonates with me, in my current romantic situation. A lot of the lyrics fit perfectly with what I'm feeling about my now ex-boyfriend.
"No amount of talking is going to soften the fall" was the first lyric I read, on a friend's facebook. It was absolutely perfect timing when it came to me.
"How I said to you, "honey, just open your heart"
When I've got trouble even opening a honey jar
And that right there is where we are..."
God. it's so true.

So this song, for me, really feels like it talks about a relationship that could be so good, but just cannot work and has to be let go. It's perfectly somber.
Especially the last two stanzas. It's like, "I am so tired, and I know this cannot work, but i just want it to so bad. i just want you to hold me."

SORRY FOR BEING ALL MELODRAMATIC AND SHARING MY PERSONAL PROBLEMS OVER THE INTERNET. I KNOW IT'S ANNOYING. BUT I HAD TO.
