"But you gotta play that music for who's listening. You gotta have someone you gotta sing it to"
That line is what makes Ryan such a powerful singer/song writer.
I can't believe I'm only the second person to comment on this song.
In my mind, this song is about creating--
You plant a rose, you raise a child, you build a house...
it's about all of the things we invest in, and the fact that it takes work, and involves the possibility of pain, even if you create something from scratch.
But, even though everything doesn't always turn out just as you imagined, you just have to find happiness and beauty where you can.
Ryan's songs tend to be depressing and I think this is the most uplifting. The first time I heard this song, it was the line, "If I don't believe in love, then I don't believe in you. And I do."
This song is a strange mix of sadness and beauty, as if you were standing on the ledge, looking down, and suddenly saw something that reminded you that....life IS beautiful.
