"No One's Gonna Love You" - Band of Horses
I'm at work, but not in work mode. How can I be a day after Thanksgiving? I should be out shopping or at home sleeping. Anywhere, but here...But here I am. So let me tell you another story.
This song revisited me last night. I was driving home on the 605 freeway when it decided to say, "Hello." My heart ached, but I let it play. I remembered you saying how you're paying more and more attention to lyrics now that you have more time on your hands. I guess the little things start to show more value when the big things are no longer in the way for us to take advantage of them.
So there I was, alone in my car, listening for a change.
It was too dark to see the mountains ahead, but the moon was blinding. It sat so low that I swear I could touch it if I drove close enough. It was a little lopsided so I knew it wasn't full, but after 2 dinners I sure was. I wish I could say the same for my heart.
There was absolutely no traffic to distract me and as I sat there with this song blasting from within my little Mini, that same sensation that has become too familiar to me over these last few months came back like a shot in the dark and overwhelmed me. I know you're probably thinking I asked for it. I could've easily skipped over this song. Unfortunately, like touching the moon, it was impossible to do.
Lyrics:
It's looking like a limb torn off
Or altogether just taken apart
We're reeling through an endless fall
We are the ever-living ghost of what once was
But no one is ever gonna love you more than I do
No one's gonna love you more than I do
And anything to make you smile
It is my better side of you to admire
But they should never take so long
Just to be over then back to another one
But no one is ever gonna love you more than I do
No one's gonna love you more than I do
But someone,
They could have warned you
When things start splitting at the seams and now
The whole thing's tumbling down
Things start splitting at the seams and now
If things start splitting at the seams and now,
It's tumbling down
Hard.
Anything to make you smile
You are the ever-living ghost of what once was
I never want to hear you say
That you'd be better off
Or you liked it that way
But no one is ever gonna love you more than I do
No one's gonna love you more than I do
But someone
They should have warned you
When things start splitting at the seams and now
The whole thing's tumbling down
Things start splitting at the seams and now
If things start splitting at the seams and now,
It's tumbling down
Hard
