I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react
And games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You've made it now

Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing along

I paid the cost too late...



Pleasant & Beautiful. That basically sums up how I feel about this song. I don't know much about the two singers, but I know that this song came from the movie "Once" which I've heard great & wonderful things about. This song played a lot around the time of my wedding & for a while after. When I think about this song, I think about a much younger Taylor (my daughter). Though she is still the same person, in many ways she is not. I mourn the loss of the little toddler that she will never be again, but also celebrate the articulate & bright young girl she is becoming everyday. Some day I will blink, & again miss the little girl she use to be.
