Okay. Today I should be writing in 2 songs to accommodate yesterday's miss. I shall provide a female artiste and a male artiste, to be fair.
The first one shall be by one of my favourite singers, Taylor Swift. The song I shall choose from her is "The Way I loved You". This one is a bit different from the other songs I have put up, since the character in the song who experienced unrequited love is not the protagonist, nor the second person, but a third person who's in love with the protagonist. I really pity that guy in the song, more so when he's clearly in love with the protagonist and really a dream guy, but she's not really returning it. It's more like she agreed to be with him for the sake of making her bad ex-boyfriend jealous. Well, it is interesting to listen to a song from the point of view of someone who is the object of an unrequited love, and not the other way round.
"THE WAY I LOVED YOU" By Taylor Swift
He is sensible and so incredible
He says everything I need to hear and it's like
I couldn't ask for anything better
He opens up my door and I get into his car
And he says you look beautiful tonight
And I feel perfectly fine
But I miss screaming and fighting and kissing in the rain
And it's 2am and I'm cursing your name
You're so in love that you act insane
And that's the way I loved you
Breakin' down and coming undone
It's a roller coaster kinda rush
And I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you
He respects my space
And never makes me wait
And he calls exactly when he says he will
He's close to my mother
Talks business with my father
He's charming and endearing
And I'm comfortable
But I miss screaming and fighting and kissing in the rain
And it's 2am and I'm cursing your name
You're so in love that you act insane
And that's the way I loved you
Breakin' down and coming undone
It's a roller coaster kinda rush
And I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you
He can't see the smile I'm faking
And my heart's not breaking
Cause I'm not feeling anything at all
And you were wild and crazy
Just so frustrating intoxicating
Complicated, got away by some mistake and now
I miss screaming and fighting and kissing in the rain
It's 2am and I'm cursing your name
I'm so in love that I acted insane
And that's the way I loved you
Breaking down and coming undone
It's a roller coaster kinda rush
And I never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you oh, oh
And that's the way I loved you oh, oh
Never knew I could feel that much
And that's the way I loved you
Okay. The second song is a song by one of my favourite UK bands, McFly. The lyrics of the song speaks of a guy who is in love and is trying to forget this girl who's "out of this league", and already has a boyfriend, albeit a tough one. Well, this song is rather close to my heart, since it talks about knowing that thinking about your crush when you know you'll never get him/her is as good as wasting time, but you just can't help it. And then you'd try to forget, but you'd end up thinking of the object of crush again. What a difficult experience!
"OBVIOUSLY" By McFly
Recently I've been,
Hopelessly reaching
Out for this girl,
Who's out of this world.
Believe me.
She's got a boyfriend
He drives me round the bend
Cos he's 23
He's in the marines
He'd kill me
But so many nights now
I find myself thinking about her now.
'Cause obviously,
She's out of my league
But how can I win
She keeps draggin' me in and
I know I never will be good enough for her.
No, no
Never will be good enough for her.
Gotta escape now
Get on a plane now. yeah
Off to L.A and that's where I'll stay, for two years.
I'll put it behind me(I'll put it behind me)
Go to a place where she cant find me. yeah.
'Cause obviously,
She's out of my league,
I'm wastin' my time
'Cause she'll never be mine
I know i never will be good enough for her.
No, no
Never will be good enough for her
She's outta my hands
And I never know where I stand
Cos I'm not good enough for her
He's good enough for her (for her, for her)
'Cause obviously,
She's out of my league,
I'm wastin' my time
'Cause she'll never be mine
I know i never will be good enough for her.
No, no
Never will be good enough for her...
