| Tommy James And The Shondells – Crimson and Clover Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| This remains one of mine and my ex-husband's favorite songs to jam to when hanging out. It is 100% about sex. We think crimson and clover is just a metaphor for all of the sights/sounds/etc. you experience during good sex. Makes sense they'd be two of his favorite colors. | |
| Arcade Fire – Crown of Love Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
This song speaks to me deeply. Every part of it. I think it's about loving someone very deeply, to the point of losing yourself. Then having them leave you (even though they too loved you deeply - they just could not handle the insane closeness and intimacy and were scared - and you left picking up the pieces, knowing it was right. They say it fades if you let it Love was made to forget it I carved your name across my eyelids You pray for rain, I pray for blindness (We had it in our hands, but your fear let it fade and tricked you into thinking we were forgettable. Now you're everywhere I look. You're a permanent part of who I am. You want the rain to wash down and cleanse you of your feelings so you can forget it ever happened. I'd rather be blind so I'm no longer tortured or haunted by you.) If you still want me, please forgive me The crown of love has fallen from me If you still want me, please forgive me Because the spark is not within me (There were so many little things I did that may have bugged you, but nothing so big for you to walk away. Please forgive me for every little thing. I still want you, so if you want me, forgive me and come back. I've lost any spark inside me. All the color in my world is gone without you here. Everything is gray.) I snuffed it out before my mom walked in my bedroom (I'm a great actress. No one knows I'm in this much pain...) The only thing that you keep changing Is your name, my love keeps growing Still the same, just like a cancer And you won't give me a straight answer (You keep changing the rules on me. You told me you'd never hurt me, you'd never leave us, you'd always talk about things. Yet you walked out and vanished. You've changed your name so many times. I don't know who I'm talking to anymore. Yet I'm left here with this God-awful love you put in me, and even though I hate it, I don't want it, I want to cut it out, it makes me sick! - I still love you. In fact, I love you more now than I did before. It keeps growing. You loved me. You vanished. You won't give me any answers. I'm sick of you, this love...but there's no cure for this type of sickness.) If you still want me, please forgive me The crown of love has fallen from me If you still want me, please forgive me Because your hands are not upon me (My God, to feel your hands upon me...what I wouldn't give. You took my crown of love, it's fallen.) I shrugged them off before my mom walked in my bedroom The pains of love, and they keep growing In my heart there's flowers growing On the grave of our old love Since you gave me a straight answer (I can't make anything better. It hurts in every cell of my body. And that hurt seems to only grow with time, never fading. I think if you would explain, I could look back more fondly. I could see our love as something that was necessary, a learning experience. I could think of you with "flowers" not pain.) If you still want me, please forgive me The crown of love is not upon me If you still want me, please forgive me Because this crown is not within me It's not within me, it's not within me You got to be the one You got to be the way Your name is the only word that I can say You got to be the one You got to be the way Your name is the only word The only word that I can say (There is no one else. There never was. There never will be. You are the one, the way.) |

This song is my life for the past two and a half months. For someone to write these lyrics...there's a story there. If you haven't lived through this type of pain, you could never describe it so eloquently. |

| Faith Hill – Mississippi Girl Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| Not just John writing it. A great songwriter by the name of Adam Shoenfeld (who also happens to play with Big & Rich as well)cowrote it. I have to make sure to give Adam his credit because he's an awesome guy and musician. I attended the party for this song and got to meet Faith Hill. Very sweet, down to earth woman. Just wish Tim McGraw had been there as well for some eye candy! | |
