I never walked on water
Never saw a reason to be going out that far
I never found a star that made a wish
But now the sky is listening to my heart
They can break me
Make me
If they want they can chase me
Love me
Hate me
I don't care anymore

[Chorus:]
'Til you I was nothing but lonely nights
The was nothing but sad goodbyes
For me to fall through
Come true
My dreams are awakening
Somebody is making me the only one in the room
What nobody could do
Nobody 'til you
Nobody 'til you

And the more I talk the less I fear
No matter what you say
We're still on the same hemisphere
And there's comfort in just knowing that
Wherever I go a part of me is staying here with you
So take me, shake me if you want you can chase me
Love me for me
And stay away from the door

'Til you I was nothing but lonely nights
There was nothing but sad goodbyes
For me to fall through
Come true
My dreams are awakening
Somebody is making me the only one in the room
What nobody could do
Nobody 'til you

What kind of world would it be if you ever went away
Oh and I, I can't go back to what I had cause it will never be the same

'Til you I was nothing but lonely nights
There was nothing but sad goodbyes
For me to fall through
Come true
My dreams are awakening
Somebody is making me the only one in the room
What nobody could do
Nobody 'til you

    i like this song. i think it talks about how much a guy loves her and thinks she is awsome. he makes her feel confident and all that lovely stuff. also that she doesnt care what anyone else thinks.

    I agree with alwaysf0rg0tt3n, about how this song appeals to me. Just the flow of it and everything, it's so catchy. I don't care how many haters are out there, I don't care about how many people are angry at her not writing the song, she's still performing and whether it is hers or not, I like it.

    "I never walked on water Never saw a reason to be going out that far I never found a star that made a wish But now the sky is listening to my heart They can break me Make me If they want they can chase me Love me Hate me I don't care anymore"

    It's like how she is and how the world bombards you with things. How numb you are.

    She's been stepped on, stepped over, she's been through it all, been dying and living, been struggling and searching, and been cold and left behind.

    When you're lost and forgotten and the world doesn't accept you, you can't but help know that. But you also can't help but have this desperate need inside of you to be accepted. As much as people fight the system and the world every day, they too inside would like to be accepted. They know that a part of them wants to give up. And that it is just so easy to forget your values and beliefs and join back into the world. Forget who you are. And just be loved.

    "And the more I talk the less I fear No matter what you say We're still on the same hemisphere And there's comfort in just knowing that"

    And finding that right person gives you the hope to go on. Like you two are like two peas in a pod, and when you're building your world it feels so good that there's someone else that accepts you. And so suddenly they are in place of that very world that you wanted so much to take you in. And then they become your world.

    "(Bridge) What kind of world would it be if you ever wnet away Oh and I, I can't go back to what I had cause it will never be the same"

    That's an important point. Once you're changed forever, you can't go back. If you do, it'll be different. There's no going back on your beliefs.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
