| My Morning Jacket – It Beats 4 U Lyrics | 19 years ago |

There is definitely more to this song than love. "And who could say but never do Things they've said to someone who through all that's been and all will be So in line so thoughtfully In tune with you So in time for me New thoughts arrive So in time for me" When I hear the lyrics of this melodic tune, I think of the times when two people complete each others sentences, and it's as though they're minds are in complete syncopation. It's this kind of syncopation that is the foundation of the kind of connection that really brings two people together. "Who can count the time I'm beating with my hands? Who can stop the smoke from breathing in my head?" James ask's, "Who else could?" Your heart and your mind are always engaged in warfare. But not here, no, they're in complete alignment. At the moment of the utterance of these lyrics, the warfare subsides, and you experience the sensation of aligned thought and emotion. Synchronicity. Call me a romantic. This song is simply stunning, and one of my favorites on the album. The whistling after the final verse is beautiful. Jim James and MMJ at their finest. |
