Maybe It's Just Me

Shades of Pink sent me a song some days back. I found the lyrics...

Song : Unintended
Artiste : Muse

You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You could be the one I'll always love

You could be the one who listens
To my deepest inquisitions
You could be the one I'll always love

I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before

First there was the one who challenged
All my dreams and all my balance
She could never be as good as you

You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You should be the one I'll always love

I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before

I'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before

Before you

Beautiful isn't it? The way the lyrics change from "You could be the one I'll always love" to "You should be the one I'll always love". And how it mentions of a life he had before. Then adds in the "you" only at the end.

Then again, I've always been a sucker for songs with such lyrics.

Like Selena's "Dreaming of You". How it changes from "Cos I'm dreaming of you tonight" to "Now I'm dreaming with you tonight".

I wonder if anyone else goes into such depth to notice these minute changes in the lyrics.

Maybe it's just me. :)

Dear, I noticed it. That's the beauty of lyrics and melodies. And that's why I instantly fell in love with the song.

It never fails to amaze me how just one alphabet, one extra word can give a whole new meaning to a song.

Awesome huh?

FREAKING awesome. =)

I knew this song would appeal to you as much as it would to me.

Purples said...

Hahaha, but imagine singing ".......broken pieces of my life before. Before abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"

LOL

Shades of Pink said...

Purples...You goondu!!!

"...broken pieces of the life I had before...YOU"

"You" is a word. Not a letter.

The letter bit which I got wrong, was the change from the 'Could' to the 'Should'.

WALAUEH!!!!!
