Mine by Taylor Swift
I'm sure most ov you have heard this song and like it. Well, atleast heard it even if you don't like it. Well, if you haven't then listen to it now! ^.^
Okayy, Mine is one of the track in Taylor Swift latest album, Speak Now. You must have heard about Taylor Swift rite? Cuz she's like one of Hollywood top artist you can't simply mis-look. She's one of my fav singer and simply a girl you can't hate ;p.
Back to the topic, I like this song 'cuz it strongly remind me of a girl who's afraid to fall in lurve because of her parents mistake a.k.a divorce or something like tat. Taylor express the lyrics perfectly in this music video.
Here's the lyrics if you're wondering about it:
You were in college, working part-time, waiting tables
Left a small town and never looked back
I was a flight risk, afraid of fallin'
Wondering why we bother with love, if it never lasts
I say, "Can you believe it?"
As we're lyin' on the couch
The moment, I can see it
Yes, yes, I can see it now
Do you remember, we were sittin' there, by the water?
You put your arm around me for the fist time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
Flash forward, and we're takin' on the world together
And there's a drawer of my things at your place
You learn my secrets and figure out why I'm guarded
You say we'll never make my parents' mistakes
But we got bills to pay
We got nothin' figured out
When it was hard to take
Yes, yes
This is what I thought about:
Do you remember, we were sittin' there, by the water?
You put your arm around me for the fist time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
Do you remember all the city lights on the water?
You saw me start to believe for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh
And I remember that fight, two-thirty AM
You said everything was slipping right out of our hands
I ran out, crying, and you followed me out into the street
Braced myself for the goodbye, cause that's all I've ever known
Then, you took me by surprise
You said, "I'll never leave you alone."
You said, "I remember how we felt, sitting by the water.
And every time I look at you, it's like the first time.
I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter.
She is the best thing that's ever been mine."
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
Do you believe it?
We're gonna make it now
And I can see it
I can see it now
I love the part where she said, "Braced my self for the goodbye, cuz that's all I ever know". Yeah, personal experience; I'm afraid to fall in love too. Not because of my parents like the song stated so but because of me. Of my innocent mistake I made in the past and how my fragile heart got hurt and hurt and I can't possibly seems to get back up. Well, if I got in a fight too, I'll be bracing myself, and expecting a goodbye or possibly bad news. Don't you?
Moral of the story: Even if you think you don't want to fall inlove anymore because of the past, think again. 'cuz we're human and abandoning our feelings is just as bad as admit we're animals, and even so, animal do have feelings. So, love and get hurt because if you involve yourself with love, u'll involve urself with getting hurt too. But that's not the reason to stop loving someone cause you might never know if he's the one; ur souldmate.. ;)
