Goodnight goodnight

Look at the below video and the lyrics. The song is by Maroon 5, btw.



You left me hanging from a threadwe once swung from together
I’ve lick my wounds but I can’t ever see them getting better
Something’s gotta change
Things cannot stay the same
Her hair was pressed against her face, her eyes were red with anger
Enraged by things unsaid and empty beds and bad behavior
Something’s gotta change
It must be rearranged, oh

I’m sorry, I did not mean to hurt my little girl
It's beyond me,
I cannot carry the weight of the heavy world
So goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight, hope that things work out all right, yeah
Whoa

The room was silent as we all tried so hard to remember
The way it feels to be alive
The day that he first met her
Something’s gotta change
Things cannot stay the same
You make me think of someone wonderful, but I can’t place her
I wake up every morning wishing one more time to face her
Something’s gotta change
It must be rearranged, oh

I’m sorry, I did not mean to hurt my little girl
It's beyond me, I cannot carry the weight of a heavy world
So goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight, hope that things work out all right
So much to love
So much to learn
But I won’t be there to teach you, oh

I know I can be close
But I try my best to reach youI’m so sorry, I did not mean to hurt my little girl
It's beyond me, I cannot carry the weight of a heavy world

So goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight, goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight, hope that things work out all right, yeah
Whoa, oh…Yeah

*********************************
Well , the video and lyrics seems to strike a chord in me. The video shows the guy going thru the same thing over and over again at the end of the video. To him its just a vicious cycle, with nowhere to go. The relationship doesnt seem to be going anywhere, despite them loving each other a lot.

However, things change and all he wishes is to see the same person he fell in love, to be back in those times when they were happy. but in front of him now stands some1 different. He's apologising for not being to hold to this relationship but it is not his fault. As much as he tries, its beyond his control.

It's a really sad song, and looking at the video i feel sorry for Adam Levine, although i think he is also a lucky bastard to act in that music Video!

But i feel sorry for the things the song writer / lyricist who wrote this song. Anyways, I've been looping this song the whole day. Enjoy the Chinese New year ladies and gentlemen!!

Boodyboy, out!!!
