Musical Lessons

Today I don't have much to write about, so I thought I'd leave you will some more lyrics - this time from Death Cab For Cutie's song titled "I will possess your heart".

I don't necessarily believe that I can possess any ones heart, but it's a fairly good depiction of how it feels, to want someone so desperately and how it feels to will them, to just see you. I'm sure this is a time-old dilemma, but I am wondering if anyone actually gets their match that way? When it's so one sided, can it ever move beyond anything else but a dream? I suspect it wouldn't really work out - kinda like when you're seeing a movie for the first time, with someone who has already seen it - they might not say anything, but you know they are watching you like a hawk for your reactions - they already have expectations, and it's hard living up to peoples ideas.

How I wish you could see the potential.
The potential of you and me.
It's like a book elegantly bound,
But in a language you can't read just yet.

You gotta spend some time, love.
You gotta spend some time with me.
And I know that you'll find love.
I will possess your heart.

There are days when outside your window,
I see me reflection as I slowly pass.
And I long for this mirrored perspective,
When we'll be lovers, lovers at last....
