Take It From Me Lyrics

What can I compare you to, a favorite pair of shoes?
Maybe my bright red boots if they had wings
Funny how we animate colorful objects saved
Funny how it’s hard to take a love with no sting

But come on take it, come on take it, take it from me
But come on take it, come on take it, take it from me
(we've got a good life)

What can I compare you to, a window the sun shines through?
Maybe the silver moon, a smile rising
The magic of the fading day, satellites on parade
A toast to the plans we've made to live like kings

I lose my breath despite the air
When the rain falls down I give in to despair
Pink magnolia in winter, she doesn’t care
if you don’t show up to have another cup

What can I compare you to, when everything looks like you?
I get a bit confused with every Spring
Flowers that bloom your eyes, hummingbirds side by side
My heart won’t stay entirely in this rib caging

i am in love with the weepies. They write beautifully, and have inspired me to start writing again. I joined this site just to write this post! Does that count as a meaning?

Favourite verse, it's just so pretty and it sung so well. Gives me butterflies. Not sure what it's about, i guess it's open to interpretation.

I definitely agree with hab204, it reminds me very strongly of Shakespeare, only in more modern poetic terms. I LOVE THIS SONG! Every thing that she compares him to, "bright red boots, if they had wings", "a smile rising", etc. is so creative and beautiful, and very true when you're in love. It's so true, too, because things can be going so well that you're afraid they'll come crashing down. Enjoy the love while you can is basically what she's trying to say.

"What can I compare you to, when everything looks like you?"

I LOVE that line. It sums up love when you're obsessed with someone. Everything reminds her of him so theres actually nothing left to be able to compare to his magficence. There's just him.

Beautiful.
