Wonder

"Why Does She Stay?" - NeYo



I wonder if you're waiting up for me. Curious to see what I'd post next and slightly hoping it'd be for you. Lucky you.

I wonder if you're debating what rating you'll give this, clicking it twice just to be sure I notice you noticed. Yes, I'm noticing.

I wonder what you've been thinking about the last week. It's been a week, ya know.

I wonder how your weekend went. How you must've spent it with someone else. How you were secretly hoping it was me. You did. I know. I felt it. I just ignored it.

I wonder how you're killing your time. Who you told. What they said. How you felt when they said it.

Just in case you're wondering, it's been different for me. I got the disappointed looks, the "why's?!," the shaking heads, the rolling eyes... but it's ok. It's not about anyone else. Sometimes the best way to explain it is by not explaining it at all. And so I'll continue to wonder...

Lyrics:

Why does she stay?
Why does she stay?
Why does she stay? Hey...

She hates that I don't do dishes
Even though I mess up the most
And she begs me all the time to help her
And I know I should but I'm lazy... so I don't
She always considering my feelings
Thinking of me before herself
Most of the time, I'm so damn selfish
I don't even realize she treats me so well

She's so much better than me
I'm so unworthy of her
Why does she stay?
Why does she stay? Why?

She hates that we don't spend much time
We barely see each other at all
She don't even nag me 'bout always working
She just says, "I just wish every now and then that you'd call"
And I don't know why she's still here
She could have any man that she wants
Step outside of myself see how much she loves me
And all the things I should do for her that I just don't
Just don't
And I realize...

She's so much better than me (so much better)
I'm so unworthy of her (so unworthy of her)
Why does she stay?
Why does she stay?
Tell me why? Why, why, why?
Why, why, why, why?

(She's in love, she's in love, she's in love)
And I don't understand, that I don't understand no
(She's in love, she's in love, she's in love)
Got to be a better man for her
So I take my time and do what I'm supposed to do
Because I just can't see my life without you, you, you, you, you

Why does she stay?

She's so much better than me (so much better, so much better...)
I'm so unworthy of her (so unworthy of her...)
Why does she stay?
Why does she stay?
Tell me why? Why, why, why?
Why, why, why, why, why?

Why does she stay?
Why does she stay?
Why does she stay?

Welcome to People

Songs TBA Last night, I saw a special, private screening courtesy of the Screening Exchange called, "Welcome to People" directed by Alex Kurtzman. I loved it and it wasn't something that I thought I'd love. In fact, I almost changed my mind at the last minute when I saw that familiar long line down the steps at Arclight Paseo. I figured, "Hell it's just another movie." But I'm so glad I didn't turn around. I'm glad I stood in the back of the line, got my hand stamped and cell phone taken away for nearly 3-hours in order to be in a room filled with strangers. I just wish I had something with me to write down the great songs I heard that disappeared by the time I logged onto this blog. It makes me appreciate technology...so check it out when it comes out. I'll make sure I have my cell phone handy the next time I see it so I can grab some songs along the way. Oh, I'm Hannah, not Frankie and let me know what you think.

Love Is Not Blind

"Colorblind" - Counting Crows I originally had a Dave Matthews Band song in my head, but like always I'm bending the rules a little bit and going with what's in my heart. After all, I couldn't follow my last blog with something you didn't like, could I? That just wouldn't fit and this seems to do just that. This song reminds me of the movie Cruel Intentions . It's hard not to think of it. Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe's chemistry was so strong, especially in their steamy love scene with this song playing in the background, that any other memory pales in comparison. I always thought the lyrics were so simple and romantic, but it became even clearer here. There was no doubt about it. I knew instantly that they were a real life couple even before they announced it. Love is obvious. Acting can never really be this good unless two people have genuine feelings for each. Look at Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams in The Notebook and Angelina Jolie ...

Play Pretend

"Animal" - Neon Trees I think of a car commercial. A group of fun-loving teens riding along in a convertible to the beach with their tanned limbs dangling from each side. I could see the waves crashin' against the cliffs as they drive pass with the sun and wind whippin' their golden blond hair over their bug-eyed sunglasses. I hear laughter and this song blasting in the background. I see newly-polished red toe nails and matching swimwear from American Apparel. I smell suntan lotion and tropical kiwi-strawberry body splash. A picnic basket filled with junk food sits side-by-side next to a big, red beer cooler chillin' in the backseat! Everyone's burstin' with bright smiles, white teeth, and energy! What a total California Summer cliche! My ultimate nightmare! But... it is a good song and sometimes a gal gotta step outta my element and play pretend every once in a while as if I will ever be able to fit into this stereotypical mold. Now all this Barbi...
