TAM-MY-MUSIC, MY-LIFE

"A melody is like seeing someone for the first time, the physical attraction, sex...but then, as you get to know the person, that's the lyrics, they're story, who they are underneath. It's the combination of the two that makes it magic" - Sophie

I'M NOT MOVING

Okay, call me pathetic (PATHETIC), but you gotta admit that this song is darn romantic right?

What if a guy waited for you all these years, at the corner of the street where you two met?
Oh come on, that is sweet...
But at the same time, I feel sad for the dude if the girl has really moved on with her life.



This song is beautifully written...great choice of words I must say. A story told in the best possible words. Love it! 
Rhyming is excellent....

I know this song was popular some time back and I'm sorta like the late 'adopter' so to speak, but seriously, it's never too late for a good song.

Going back to the corner where I first saw you,
Gonna camp in my sleeping back, I'm not gonna move,
Got some words on cardboard, got your picture in my hand,
Saying if you see this girl, can you tell her where I am

Some try to hand me money, they don't understand
I'm not broke, I'm just a broken hearted man,
I know it makes no sense, what else can I do
How can I move on
If I'm still in love with you

'Cause if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me
And your heart starts to wonder where on this Earth I could be
Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we meet
And you'll see me waiting for you at the corner of the street

So I'm not moving, I'm not moving....

Policeman says, "Son you can't stay here"
I say there's someone I'm waiting for if it's a day, a month or a year,
Gotta stand my grounds even if it rains or snows
If she changes her mind, this is the first place she will go

People talk about the guy, who's waiting on a girl
There are no holes in his shoes, but a big hole in his world
Maybe I'll get famous as the man who can't be moved
And maybe you don't mean to but you'll see me on the news
And you'll come running to the corner
'Cause you'll know it's just for you

So I'm not moving...........

I don't know why but I feel sad listening to this song. It's a sad song...if you are a pessimist, like me.

And I'm always touched when someone does something beautiful for the person he/she loves.

A guy who would wait for you, on the corner of the street you meet? Oh well, I mean I know for sure that not all guys would do that, but I guess there is always one jewel among the other crap. 

I don't expect guys to do special things like this for me, but when I see some guys doing such beautiful things for the woman they love, I can't help but feel really touched. Oh hello, I'm still a girl and every girl has that romantic fairytale side in them whereby they wish for a prince charming. But of course, as we grow up, we've learned to accept the harsh reality. Nevertheless, there are a few lucky ones who manage to find Prince Charming. :)

"The Man Who Can't Be Moved" is one of those great guys out there...


With Lotsa Love,
