Need You - Travie McCoy

I know its not your fault, but I’m a locked door
And inside I’ma mess by someone before
And I wish that I, I could find a key
To unlock all the things that you want us to be
Let me open up and start again,
But there’s a safe around my heart
I don’t know how to let you in,
And that’s what keeps us apart
And that’s why I need time.
I said I need you,
I need you to understand, you, you, you (x2)

Call up the locksmith,
Tell him we need him quick
We’ve got a million keys,
None of them seem to fit
While you’re on the phone,
call up the clocksmith,
Cuz I could use some time,
Even the slightest bit
Let me open up and start again,
And break this safe around my heart
I don’t know how to let you in,
And that’s what keeps us apart
And that’s why I need time
I said I need you
I need you to understand, you, you, you (x2)

I’m thinking now’s the time,
Maybe its time to go, if I gave you my heart, be gentle,
I’m tired of laying low, lets give the world a show
And when you know, you know,
And when you know, you know, you know
And when you know, you know, you know, you know
And that’s why I need time
I said I need you,
I need you to understand, you, you, you (x2)
I need you to understand (x4)
I need you (x3)
I need you, you, you

These are the lyrics of a song that I used to listen to last year. I think its melody is kind of sad and shows the angst of a man who doesn't know if he is able to love again, but besides it, he really wants to.

I used to identify myself a lot with the words of this song, whereas I was in love with a guy who didn't seem to love me as I wanted him to. I guess it was because he couldn't forget(or forgive her,since she's left him) his ex-girlfriend, so he wasn't capable to love someone else - and it included me.

Everytime I think of these lyrics, it's impossible not to ask myself the following question: is it fair to make someone wait for us if we are not able to give this person the love that he/she wants?

I don't think so. That's why I try not to do it.

Have a good sunday afternoon!

Hi

So, here I am.

My name is Caroline. As you can see in my profile, I'm a south brazilian girl who loves to learn languages and needs to write more to be a better english speaker/reader/writer. I don't really have a place where I can write something in order to practice and develop my skills, so I decided to create this new blog(I already have another one) and try to write here everyday. My objective is to write as well as I can.

I'm not sure about how my texts are going to be - I may write about myself, about my feelings, hopes and expectations, about my family and even about politics, economics or whatever.

This month I'll try to buy Harry Potter and the Sorcer's Stone. When I was 12 years old, reading the Harry Potter books opened my mind to a new world. Harry Potter showed me new words and a completely different reality, and I have learned a lot because of it. My expectation is that I can learn a lot of english by reading it on its original version. Let's see how it works.

Finally, I want to say that I really really love english and I'm so glad to be taking classes of this beautiful language again. I hope I can learn it fast, so I can try to improve my Spanish, German and Italian skills too. :)

Cheers to my new blog!

Caroline
