James Morrison

His songs translate myself. Let's just say that he does all the work of over-analysing for me.
And let's, too, say that he summarises who I might think I am. (my ego)
Listen to what he has to say melodically :

YOU GIVE ME SOMETHING

"Sometimes I'm so full of love I come spilling it out,
It's uncomfortable to see,
I give it away so easily" One who find it hard to keep it all in


"For every piece of me that wants you
Another piece backs away " Not sure what this means, but it rings a mental bell

"This could be nothing
But I'm willing to give it a try " Gambling away...

WONDERFUL WORLD

"They can tell something is wrong
Like I don't belong " Looking lost..

"Standing outside,
they're just too happy to care tonight" Feeling uncomfortable

"I want to be like them
But I'll mess it up again " Trying to fit in

"But if I had someone I would do anything
I'd never, never, ever let you feel alone " It's just someone being sweet

"Well I know that it's a wonderful world
From the sky down to the sea
But I can only see it when you're here, here with me " Someone dependant on a lover

ONE LAST CHANCE

"Once I had everything now it's gone
Don't tell me again coz I've heard it all before" Losing one's pride over oneself

"The time has come for me to change again
I can't carry on like this, I will lose my friends " Why must we change anyway?
