Iris

Another very beautiful song, but more well known than the last one I featured here (although the other one is way better in my opinion). Its by the Goo Goo Dolls.

And I’d give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You’re the closest to heaven that I’ll ever be
And I don’t want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it’s over
I just don’t want to miss you tonight

And I don’t want the world to see me
Cause I don’t think that they’d understand
When everything’s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can’t fight the tears that ain’t coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything seems like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive

And I don’t want the world to see me
Cause I don’t think that they’d understand
When everything’s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I don’t want the world to see me
Cause I don’t think that they’d understand
When everything’s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

All these songs I feature have meaning in my life. I only really listen to music that reflects what I’m thinking and how I’m feeling.

    I was talking with my girlfriend who thought this song related to someone being left behind when there lover had died, this made me think, i actually believe that it was the reverse, and infact it was the singer who had died..
    The angel has come back from heaven to visit the person who means most to them, whether it be a lover or a family member, or if your Australian whats the differnce?

    An example, ‘this is the closest to heaven that ive ever been’, in my opinon this is the angel saying he has been to ‘heaven’, and the most perfect place in the world is still not as perfect as being with the one he loves.

    You guys will probably think i have taken the easy option cause of the city of angel link, but if you listen to the lines, it really does work.

    Anyway, Better days, surely a future christmas number one? Festive all the way…
