L-O-V-E...LOVE and...One Tree Hill

Great songs are only heartfelt when the singer's/composer's own personal experiences are translated into musical notes and befitting words to accompany with them; and the singer sings from the heart. You know how a particular song can mean something to a person at one point in time. And, when it is difficult to put your feelings into words, the lyrics, the tune - the whole package - can do that task easily for you in just a few minutes, without all the fuss of racking your brain to search for the right words that represent how you feel towards the other person. Well, this song has no special meaning to me but I feel that it strongly symbolises what love really is - that when you truly love someone, you accept that person for who she/he is, the good and the bad. Real love should be unconditional. Otherwise, what is love when it comes with conditions attached?

Halo - Haley James Scott (OST - One Tree Hill)
I never promised you a ray of light
I never promised there’d be sunshine everyday
I'll give you everything I have
The good the bad...


Why do you put me on a pedestal?
I’m so up high that I can’t see the ground below
So help me down, you've got it wrong I don’t belong there


[Chorus]
One thing is clear I wear a halo
I wear a halo when you look at me
But standing from here
You wouldn’t say so
You wouldn’t say so if you were me


And I.. I just wanna love you
Oh, oh I.. I just wanna love you
I always said that I would make mistakes
I’m only human and that’s my saving grace
I fall as hard as I try
So don’t be blinded
See me as I really am
I have flaws and sometimes I even sin
So pull me from that pedestal,
I don’t belong there


One thing is clear
I wear a halo
I wear a halo
when you look at me
but standing from here
you wouldn’t say so...

P/S: I know I am only posting these song lyrics because, other than the song having a nice tune, I have been glued to the idiot box, incessantly watching One Tree Hill in the last 2 weeks or so. Some life I have...just for now...Well, on a bright note, I am off to Melbourne this Saturday! Can't wait...!!!
