Love Makes People Do Crazy Thing…
February 25th 2007 -
=Post Edited=
There are times when would just sit down by a corner and observe what everyone else doing. I see people come and go. Each individual, all so different, each of them so unique on its own. Neither am I alike.
And I go on pondering about life, things that have happened in the past, thing that are yet to come in the presents and future. There were many mistakes I made in the past, wondering where I went wrong, and try not to look back but ahead and move on. Trying to learn from it and just wish will never repeat the same mistake again. Oh how we human have the tendency to do things which we are warned not to do. How stubborn can we get at times. Very often, we tend to lose our senses and made foolish mistake base on our feelings/emotions. For instance, you wanted something so bad, but yet you know it’s bad for you.
When it comes to love, I have to admit that I’m no master in it. Love is such a strong word. It can either heal or kill someone. Can you really tell whether a person means it when he/she tells you “I love youâ€? Or are you just his/her another betting victim? Very often we misuse the word “love†and end up hurting someone, with or without intention. This reminds me of the movie “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Daysâ€, where the girl has to find a guy, make him fall in love with her, then get dumped–all in 10 days. I have come across guys whom I find rather charming but they’re nothing more than just another sweet talkers. They would try all ways to make you fall in love with them, promise you the world and after they have enough of you, they would just dump you and disappear. Not a single word from them again. Sound familiar?
When that happens, you just wish you could get away from home and probably go somewhere where you don’t come across any of the opposite sex (I’m talking from a girl’s perspective). Like in the movie “The Holidayâ€, when all you wanted was a lonely getaway and ended up meeting a handsome Englishman like Jude Law and fall in love with him. Oh how I wish!
Well, people tend to do crazy thing to be in love and to get out of love. I know I’ve done crazy things in the past. Like sending flowers or love letters/notes to someone I had a crush on. Sad to say, I’ve been through many rejections and it does make me a stronger person. I have to admit that I was young and naïve back then. Also, when I was younger, I was fat. Seriously. I’m sure no one wants to go out with a short fat girl. I’m sure you don’t, do you? Don’t believe me? Wait till I show you my pictures.
Sometimes, when I’m down, I would just switch on the radio and try not to think of the problem. Just want to be in my cave, away from everyone else. The songs that were played on the radio tend to make me ponder about it even more. That, in fact, what the artist sang is what I’m actually going through at that very moment. Following are the few songs that came across my mind at this moment. For instance:
When you’re angry with someone you loved who had promised you the world but everything turn out to be a lie…
Once we were lovers
Just lovers we were oh what a lie
Once we were dreamers
Just dreamers we were oh you and I
Now I see you’re just somebody
Who wastes all my time and money
What a lie
You and I
What about your
Your 10,000 promises?
That you gave to me
Your 10,000 promises
That you promised me
Once I could handle the truth
When the truth was you and I
But time after time all the promises
Turned out to be all lies
And now, now I see that you’re somebody
Who wasted my time and money
What lie, oh what a lie (what a lie)
Oh you, you and I, oh you and I
What about your
Your 10,000 promises?
That you gave to me (to me, babe)
Your 10,000 promises
That you promised me
You say I’ll take you back
But I close the door
‘Cause I don’t want 10,000 more
- 10,000 Promises by Backstreet Boys
*I heard of this song years back, but didn’t really bother to listen to lyric. Just find the melody rather soothing.
When you think about your ex-lover and wished you still have have each other…
It must have been love, but it’s over now
It must have been good, but I lost it somehow
It must have been love, but it’s over now
From the moment we touched till the time had run out
Make believing, we’re together
That I’m sheltered by your heart
But in and outside I’ve turned to water
Like a teardrop in your palm
And it’s a hard winter’s day, I dream away
- It Must Have Been Love Lyrics by Roxette
*Roxette was one of the few artist I listen when I was a kid. Their songs are classic! Love her hair style in this video.
When someone is playing with your feeling, you wished you could just tell them enough is enough. Quit playing games with my heart! And get lost!
Baby…Ooh…
Even in my heart, I see
You’re not being true to me
Deep within my soul, I feel
Nothing’s like it used to be
Sometimes I wish I could
Turn back time
Impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could
So bad, baby
Quit playing games with my heart
Quit playing games with my heart
Before you tear us apart (with my heart)
Quit playing games with my heart
I should’ve know from the start
You know you’ve gotta stop (from my heart)
You’re tearing us apart (my heart)
Quit playing games with my heart
I live my life, the way
To keep you coming back to me
Everything I do
Is for you
So what is it that you can’t see
Sometimes I wish I could
Turn back time
Impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could
So bad, baby you’d better quit playing games with my heart
- Quit Playing Games With My Heart by Backstreet Boys
*Mind me, I’m a big fan of Backstreet Boys since young. So I’m rather familiar with their songs. All of them look so young. I used to have a big crush on Nick Carter. But I don’t find him that charming any more.
There are also time, when you think you found love at first sight, everything seems so wonderful and your problems just disappear. I personally don’t believe in love at first sight because it has never worked for me. I rather take things slowly and see how thing would work out for both parties. A friend of mine told me that, there’s 2 types of attractions - one is “love” and the other is “attraction”. Now what do you mean by that? Well, it is easy to get attracted to someone, but doesn’t mean you have love for that person. Anyway…
Thought that I was going crazy
Just having one of those days yeah
Didn’t know what to do
Then there was you
And everything went from wrong to right
And the stars came out and filled up the sky
The music yoy were playing really blew my mind
It was love at first sight
‘Cause baby when I heard you
For the first time I knew
We were meant to be as one
Was tired of running out of luck
Thinking ’bout giving up yeah
Didn’t know what to do
Then there was you
- Love At First Sight by Kylie Minogue
*I personally don’t fancy this video. I’m just taking the lyric for example.
Lately, I came across this song by Jordan Knight & Deborah Gibson - Say GoodBye. I like how the song was written about a guy whom has lost his love but wishes to get back to her. He felt sorry for what he has done and didn’t mean to say goodbye. Ever wished your lover would someday come to realise that he actually made a big mistake for saying goodbye? Or could it be the other way around - get over it and move on? Read the lyris, it’s very meaningful.
Jordan
Yeah
I’ve been so lost lately
I don’t really understand baby
Where did I go wrong
I wanna talk to you
Please call
Deborah
Where do I begin with you
after all that we’ve been through
I don’t think that it would be right if we
got together so suddenly
Jordan
I wish that I could take back all the things that I said
and replace them with simply I love you instead
Deborah
You don’t wanna say goodbye
But you never really seem like you wanna try
Jordan
But I only wanted you to stay
then I let you just slip away
Deborah
If you didn’t listen to your heart inside
then it really doesn’t matter what was on your mind
and if you need me then tell me why
Jordan
Girl, I never meant to say goodbye
Mmm Oh yeah
Jordan
I think about the past baby
Why we couldn’t make it last, lady
I know you still have doubts
But I’m gonna prove that we can work things out
Deborah
I wanna be sure that you know what you put me through
and reveal that you intend to never let me down again
Jordan
It’s clear to me and I can’t ignore
that I have to give you something I couldn’t before
Deborah
You don’t wanna say goodbye
But you never really seem like you wanna try
Jordan
But I only wanted you to stay
then I let you just slip away
Deborah
If you didn’t listen to your heart inside
then it really doesn’t matter what was on your mind
and if you need me then tell me why
Jordan
Girl, I never meant to say goodbye
Deborah
I didn’t think that we would come to this
Jordan
Ooh, no
Your eyes, your face, your smile is what I miss
Deborah
Why’d you wait so long to take me back
Deborah & Jordan
It’s all a simple misunderstanding
Deborah
You don’t wanna say goodbye
But you never really seem like you wanna try (Never wanna try)
Jordan
But I only wanted you to stay
then I let you just slip away
Deborah
If you didn’t listen to your heart inside
then it really doesn’t matter what was on your mind
and if you need me then tell me why
Jordan
Girl, I never meant to say goodbye
Deborah
You don’t wanna say goodbye
But you never really seem like you wanna try (But I never meant to say)
Jordan
But I only wanted you to stay
then I let you just slip away
Deborah
If you didn’t listen to your heart inside (Never meant to see you cry, never meant to say)
then it really doesn’t matter what was on your mind
and if you need me then tell me why
Jordan
Girl, I never meant to say goodbye
- Say Goodbye by Jordan Knight & Deborah Gibson
*I’ve been listening to this over and over again on the radio. Really love the meaning behind the song.
Anyway, maybe I’m just thinking too much. *Slap myself*
Continue to ponder… Sigh.
PS: While surfining through some lyric, I actually came across this cool website where this blogger express himself thought lyrics..
