Wednesday Words

So sometimes I get these ideas for blog posts that I think are just absolutely brilliant and amazing but in reality they really probably aren't, I'm realistic I know this. I'm not even sure anyone reads my blogs, I am more then likely just rambling on and on to myself, but I'm okay with that.... I think!

Anyways my latest "brilliant" idea is Wednesday Words, a weekly blog posts about song lyrics. I think song lyrics can be so powerful and sometimes they can change someone's life or out look on things! Often the lyrics to one specific song are the reason I will fall in love with a certain artists music and make me take a second look at them when I haven't really ever paid any attention before.

My all time favorite song lyrics (I highlighted my favorite parts) are from the song "Iris" from the Goo Goo Dolls, I think this song is beautiful!

"And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
and sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am"

I can't really put into words why I love these lyrics so much. Each line really has so much meaning behind them and can be interpreted  in so many ways! But I think it is a beautiful song and has been one of my all time favorite song for years and years.

Random Fact: The song was written specifically for the movie City of Angels, in which Nichols Cage plays an angel who falls in love with a mortal played by Meg Ryan and he gave up everything to be human so he could be with her.
