"Beautiful"

Sorry for this if you think this is the kind of rubbish that should be kept out of the life forum but meh.

Listened to this last night and it struck me just how beautiful this lyric is...

"Will you catch me if I'm falling?
Will you kiss me if I'm leaving?
Will you hold me when I'm lonely?"

Honestly? It's too cheesy to be beautiful.

It's not rubbish.
It's nice.
I like.

What song?

When you hear it sung with emotion and power then you realise :)

A live version of Round Here by Counting Crows.

I always thought that the lyrics to Anne Murrays - You needed me, were buitful in a similar sort of way. I used to think that she was singing them to God, but since God doesn't exist anymore I can see the error of my ways, and she was in fact singing them to a loved one, maybe a lover or maybe a parent.

I find that, unfortunately, a lot of what could be beautiful words are wasted on one hit boyband songs.

But that said, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and should one want to, one could see beauty in anything.

And that is very true.

Oh, I know. Couting Crows rock. Mr Jones has been a favourite of mine for years, and I always enjoy listening to Omaha.

You might have heard it before. I think it got coverd by some crappy boy band at some point, but I really really love these lyric.

Anne Murray - You Needed Me

I cried a tear, you wiped it dry
I was confused, you cleared my mind
I sold my soul, you bought it back for me
And held me up and gave me dignity
Somehow you needed me

You gave me strength to stand alone again
To face the world out on my own again
You put me high upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me, you needed me

And I can't believe it's you
I can't believe it's true
I needed you and you were there
And I'll never leave, why should I leave?
I'd be a fool 'cause I finally found someone who really cares

You held my hand when it was cold
When I was lost you took me home
You gave me hope when I was at the end
And turned my lies back into truth again
You even called me "friend"

You gave me strength to stand alone again
To face the world out on my own again
You put me high upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me, you needed me

You needed me, you needed me
