I was going through some old stuff and found this song written on a page .... I couldn’t recall it so I searched it and..... THIS IS THE BEST FEELING IVE FELT IN 2020
This song is absolutely beautiful. To me it speaks of selfless love. Accepting that person exactly the way they are. Not trying to change them because of expectations you hold.
Romantic love can only be selfish (involving a self-desire); it cannot be "selfless"; only something like the love a religious person gives his fellow human being can be "selfless" perhaps. Ayn Rand was right about this.
@@martintrajkovski6899 I would argue that true love, if it is romantic love, is by definition a selfish act, and that "selfless love" is almost an oxymoron. Now that I think of it, an anonymous type of love (charity) may be selfless, but then that is not really romantic love at all...maybe it is a general love for humanity, but certainly not the selfish type of love that is romantic love. The whole argument hinges on the definition of "love" which to me has always been based on want, desire, possession, or need, all of which is "selfish" or involving the self.
Damn I'm 53 yrs old and an avid music listener across all genres and how the hell could I have missed Damien Rices music all these years????? Its a blessing in a way because his lyrics are so intense and deep....geez. Like finding a gem each time I hear one I've never heard.
When this song came out I was battling being alone and not having the one who didn't want me. Now years later I am married and I came across this song, which made me think of the solitude. And it made me miss it, because I was married to that loneliness for so long.
Maybe if you see this love, I just want to let you know that I've always loved you only and you were my one and only true love my whole life even in coming future you're the only one. I didn't know the meaning of true love till I met you. I miss our late night chats even while we did nothing but talked about dumb stuff, I saw your excitement whole 2 years till it came between us..I also saw it fade away, even if your happiness is no longer with me even if Ive finally become bother it don't matter anymore, I will gift you something you've always wanted and I wish I could see your happiness when you have it. I literally put my blood and soul into it without a second thought, I hope you will be as happy as I expect you to be. You were the greatest gift God could give me, and I will be forever grateful although forever is not a long time for me anymore. I love you despite the fact I wasn't important enough for you to make it work even just for once, so I could have a reason to fight for us just 1 reason...
Wherever you are You know that I adore you No matter how far Well, I can go before you And if ever you need someone Well, not that you need helping But if ever you want someone Know that I am willing Oh and I don't want to change you I don't want change you, I don't want to change your mind I just came across a manger Out among the danger Somewhere in a stranger's eye Wherever you go Well, I can always follow I can feed this real slow If it's a lot to swallow And if you just want to be alone Well, I can wait without waiting If you want me to let this go Well, I'm more than willing Oh 'cause I don't want to change you I don't want to change you I don't want to change your mind I just came across a manger Out among the danger Somewhere in a stranger's eye Oh and I don't want to change you I don't want to change her Don't want to change your mind I just came across a manger Out among the danger Somewhere in a stranger's eye I've never been with anyone In the way I've been with you But if love is not for fun Then it's doomed 'Cause water races Water races down the waterfalls The water races Water races down the waterfall And I don't want to change you I don't want to change you I don't want to change your mind I just came across a manger Where there is no the danger Where love has eyes and is not blind
Such a beautiful song. It made me cry the first time I heard it. This is exactly how I feel about someone I reconnected with after 35 years. It is someone I went out on a date with in the 1980's. We went to a Howard Jones concert and then we lost touch after that. I just reconnected with him in August. I had contacted his brother first and he replied to me on August 22nd. Turns out 22 is our favorite number. So I e-mailed him and he ended asking me out on a date and pretty soon after that we were going out on more dates. He is an amazing man and I love everything about him. I don't want to change anything about him. He is genuine in my eyes. So kind and gentle and honest and strong and tall and dreamy. Such a beautiful man stepped into my life and I wasn't even looking for anyone. Our feelings for each other started to grow into something beautiful to be quite honest. He even sent a song he wanted me to listen to and he said it made him think of me every time he heard it. Then I received his e-mail last night and it wasn't something I was expecting. He pretty much told me he couldn't see me anymore, but still wanted to remain friends. He pretty much told me everything he liked about me and had nothing negative to say. I had been single a really long time and then he stepped into my life when I wasn't even looking for someone and now he is gone. I know I don't want him to be out of my life completely, so what's a girl to do? Hmmm not sure. Anyway, this is my most favorite song. Okay, maybe not my favorite, but I definitely like it.🐇🐀❤
the guy sounds like myself . once you've had a spell of freedom or being single your reluctant to give it up. You do get quite used to it. so I do understand where this guy is coming from so don't take it to personal. I'm sure he will stay in contact with you... good luck for the future ..
I like this version better than the one in his official video. The lyrics are slightly different and this is the version you get when dl'ing it from Itunes.
My precious love. ..you are my Lover and Angel ...forever you will be...just you and I...this is so beautiful ..complete acceptance ..my breath is taken away. My gorgeous lover...man for my heart. ...💞
Is the first time in my life I'm feeling something like this. I just Love you Mon amour You make understand real love means. Je t'aime vraiment Mon cœr
This song is perfect now i know that I don't want change her but is too late because she is not with me anymore she go away from me but she told me before left maybe in the future we be together again
Thanks for sharing this. Great video. Would be cool if you'd come check out my videos as well, I just posted a new original song that you might dig called 'Jack and Coke'. Much appreciated. -Brett
