This song is by Gwen Stefani- the Super Mom-
She taught me how to spell Bananas- therefor i love her.
xD just kidding.
K, so... this song, i think is around the same level as A Beautiful Life- if not more so... here's the lyrics:
Waking up to find another day
The moon got lost again last night
But now the sun has finally had its say
I guess I feel alright
But it hurts when I think
When I let it sink in
It's all over me
I'm lying here in the dark
I'm watching you sleep, it hurts a lot
& all I know is
You've got to give me everything
Nothing less cause
You know I give you all of me
[CHORUS]
I give you everything that I am
I'm handin' over everything that I've got
Cause I wanna have a really true love
Don't ever wanna have to go & give you up
Stay up till Four In The Morning & the tears are pouring
& I want to make it worth the fight
What have we been doing for all this time?
Baby if we're gonna do it, come on do it right
All I wanted was to know I'm safe
Don't want to lose the love I've found
Remember when you said that you would change
Don't let me down
It's not fair how you are
I can't be complete, can you give me more?
& all I know is
You got to give me everything
& nothing less cause
You know I give you all of me
[CHORUS]
I give you everything that I am
I'm handin' over everything that I've got
Cause I wanna have a really true love
Don't ever wanna have to go & give you up
Stay up till Four In The Morning & the tears are pouring
& I want to make it worth the fight
What have we been doing for all this time?
Baby if we're gonna do it, come on do it right
[BRIDGE]
Oh please, you know what I need
Save all your love up for me
We can't escape the love
Give me everything that you have
& all I know is
You got to give me everything
& nothing less cause
You know I give you all of me
[CHORUS]
I give you everything that I am
I'm handin' over everything that I've got
Cause I wanna have a really true love
Don't ever wanna have to go & give you up
Stay up till Four In The Morning & the tears are pouring
& I want to make it worth the fight
What have we been doing for all this time?
Baby if we're gonna do it, come on do it right
alright... its time for another Song Interpretation with Lexy!
Cuz i know how you all love these so much! xD
we'll take it verse by verse like last time, cuz im feeling kinda bored. i didnt have coffee today, so im a bit slow too. xP
here we go:
First Verse:
"Waking up to find another day"- She wakes up, and she's still alive. and thinks "Oh great, gotta pull myself through all of this again." Basically, you dont care that its here again, You'll just go with it, cuz what are you supposed to do? life goes on, you're just a part of it.
"The moon got lost again last night
But now the sun has finally had its say"- She stayed up till 4 in the morning, depressed. and watched the moon go up and down. then she watched the sun come up and that's what told her Life's brought the new day that she's supposed to face.
The sun told her that the new day had arrived and she had to suck it up and go with it, cause she couldnt do anything and she is capable.
"I guess I feel alright"- She's accepting it and going with it. Even though she knows she doesnt feel okay, she feels like crap.
second verse:
"But it hurts when I think
When I let it sink in" - Admiting that it is in fact not okay. she's not alright, she's dying. She had just tried to ignore it, but gave up because she realized that there was no point and she came to the realization of what is happening around her and when she thinks about everything and lets if overwhelm her, she realizes its not okay at all.
"It's all over me
I'm lying here in the dark
I'm watching you sleep, it hurts a lot"- She Knows that it hurts. She wants to hold on, she wants to believe that it can be fixed and changed for the better, even though she knows deep down that its never gonna happen. She's lying in the dark, watching him sleep, and realizing that its never gonna happen... and it hurts a lot.
chorus:
"& all I know is
You've got to give me everything"- She knows that the only possible way it could happen and actually be fixed a little is if he gives her everything because...
"Nothing less cause
You know I give you all of me" Because she's given him everything. She's poored out her heart to him. She's given him her all, and she didnt get enough in return, thats why everything was so messed up. she's still offering everything she has to him, if he'll just give her something back.
"I give you everything that I am
I'm handin' over everything that I've got"- Like i said up there, ^.^ She gives him everything, and doesnt get enough in return, and its breaking her mentally, spiritually, and emotionally.
"Cause I wanna have a really true love
Don't ever wanna have to go & give you up"- She doesnt wanna let go of him, even though its obvious that he's not right for her. Its obvious that it wont work out, and its dragging her down deeper into something that's not healthy, she knows it, but she doesnt wanna let go. she still wants him. She wants love.
"Stay up till Four In The Morning & the tears are pouring
& I want to make it worth the fight"- She spends so much time trying to fix it on her own, when she knows completely that its not worth it. She just doesnt wanna lose what she's worked so hard for. She wants to make it worth the fight.
"What have we been doing for all this time?
Baby if we're gonna do it, come on do it right"- She's close to the edge of giving up. She's giving him one last chance, If they're gonna do it at all, go and do it right.
but then she retreats again...
Third Verse:
"All I wanted was to know I'm safe"- That part needs no interpertation. she wants to be safe in her surroundings, Love life, spirituality, and everything. who doesnt? people naturally wanna be safe, and they get upset and hurt when they dont feel the way they planned.
"Don't want to lose the love I've found"- Exactly what i've been saying the whole time, she wants to hold on so bad, she keeps fighting for it, cuz she doesnt wanna lose what she's been working so hard for.
"Remember when you said that you would change?
Don't let me down." - She's begging now. She wants so bad for it to work. She's literally trying everything she can think of, even to the extend of begging.
"It's not fair how you are
I can't be complete, can you give me more?" -She's still begging, and admiting that she needs him. And then she goes to the asking him for more straight out. like i said, she's trying everything.
Bridge:
"Oh please, you know what I need
Save all your love up for me"- She's telling him what she needs, and that she needs it actually. She needs more love, because she hasnt been getting enough.
"We can't escape the love
Give me everything that you have" Now she's kind of damanding, she needs it or its over. she cant live like this anymore, it hurts her too bad.
and then its the chrous again and it fades out... its an extremely beautiful Music Video actually. it made me cry, and i dont cry. its very beautiful.
She has an extremely unique singing style for this song, and i enjoyed it a lot. =) thank you Miss Stefani for singing fun songs that are interesting instead of boring old buble gum songs.
