lost? "you might be a big fish in a little pond.. doesn't mean you won. 'cause there'll only come a bigger one."
[Coldplay - Lost?]
this line reminds me of high school. high school is a pond. there were huge fish an small fish. but after graduation we all left the pond we were thrown into a huge ocean full of different kids of fish, and suddenly size didn't matter that much anymore.
slipped away. "i didn't get around to kiss you goodbye on the hand. i wish that i could see you again, i know that i can't. i hope you can hear me 'cause i remember it clearly
the day you slipped away was the day i found it won't be the same"
[Avril Lavigne - Slipped Away live @ Budokan]
avril lavigne wrote this song for her grandfather, whopassed away while she was on her first tour in europe. the day he died she was playing in dublin.
„i just wanna say, the show tonight goes out to my granpa who passed away today“,
she said and then sang her song „tomorrow“, crying.
i went to an avril concert in dusseldorf, september 27 2004, her20th birthday.
she doesn’t play „slipped away“ live very often, but this time she did.
i’ve never experienced anything like this.
the audience went silent as she starting playing the piano.
no one was singing but avril.
goosebumps.
people werefrozen, some girls werecrying, silently.
it was just avril and the piano.
after the song she got the biggestapplauseever –
and if we weren’t already standing there would have been
standing ovations!
- Oma, even though it's been more than 10 years, I still miss you every single day! -
still fighting it. "everybody knows it hurts to grow up and everybody does. so weird to be back here. let me tell you what, the years go on and we're still fighting it, we're still fighting it"
[Ben Folds - Still Fighting It]
erst wenn du groß bist siehst du ein,
wie schön es war,
ein kind zu sein.
new shoes. "and i thought these shoes just don't suit me...
hey, i put some new shoes on, and suddenly everything is right.
... ...and I thought hello new shoes bye bye blues"
[Paolo Nutini - New Shoes]
sometimes we walk many miles in shoes which don't even fit.
too small.
too big.
and the color - terrible. why did we get these shoes in the first place?
sometimes we have to throw old shoes away
to make room for new ones.
and then - unexpected - we get these beatiful, new shoes.
and they are so much more comfortable.
suddenly walking is fun.
we know, we want to keep walkingin these shoes forever.
"i'll watch the night turn light blue, but it's not the same without you because it takes two to whisper quietly. the silence isn't so bad till i look at my hands and feel sad 'cause the spaces between my fingers are right where yours fit perfectly.
i'd whisper in your ear:
'oh darling, i wish you were here' "
[Owl City - Vanilla Twilight]
you know what it's like to miss a person you love and i'm sure you're missing someone very special right now. did your best friend you've known forever just move to a new city, far away? did you and your girlfriend just break up? are you in a long distance relationship and you won't be able to see your boyfriend for the next three weeks? is it your father you haven't heard from since you were four? maybe it's your grandma who passed away many years ago but you constantly miss her. there are many different reasons why you might miss this special person. it's bittersweet, a nostalgic feeling. missing someone makes you sad and often it hurts. but sometimes it reminds you of the great time you had together and the fun things you did. and don't forget that you might not be the only one who's missing someone. maybe this someone misses you as much as you miss them. so don't forget to let them know that they're missed and -even more important- loved.
lullaby. "oh as the night comes in dreams start their drifting and you hear a lullaby. lullaby. you and i."
[OneRepublic - Lullaby]
this world is hectic. time is always flying by too fast.
we get up early. we work hard. and still, so much left to do.
and by the end of a very long day
it seems like we have been fast forwarding since we got out of bed.
and when we go to bed at night we are not alone.
the following day is already waiting for us in our sheets
while the old one can't let go of us.
we try to get a good night sleep
in this crowded bed. impossible.
not if we start singing our own lullaby.
a song that makes us forget,
forget about what was.
forget about what will be. forget.
"this is precious love, it's precious love, no i can't let it go.
this is precious love, and it's teaching me everything i need to know.
oh this is precious love, oh it's precious love, no i cant get enough.
oh i'm down on my knees, begging you, please, to gimme some more of that stuff."
[James Morrison - Precious Love]
it makes you dance. it makes you sing.
it makes you dream.
it's all around. it'slove - it'smusic.
