IM coming down to where you standing

Mariah Carey - Butterfly

When you love someone so deeply
They become your life
It's easy to succumb to overwhelming fears
inside
Blindly I imagined I could
Keep you under glass
Now I understand to hold you
I must open up my hands
And watch you rise

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly

I have learned that beauty
Has to flourish in the light
Wild horses run unbridled
Or their spirit dies
You have given me the courage
To be all that I can
And I truly feel your heart will
Lead you back to me when you're
Ready to land

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly

I can't pretend these tears
Aren't over flowing steadily
I can't prevent this hurt from
Almost overtaking me
But I will stand and say goodbye
For you'll never be mine
Until you know the way
it feels to fly

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly

Spread your wings and prepare to fly
For you have become a butterfly
Fly abandonedly into the sun
If you should return to me
We truly were meant to be
So spread your wings and fly
Butterfly
So flutter through the sky
BUTTERFLY

Hello there!! I just had a blast from the past byt listening to this Mariah Carey song. Well, the last time I probably heard it was when I was in Primary 3-4 or something, but I guess I never really listened to songs back then. Anyways, I know it's ridiculus to review about a song (that was released in 1997, no less) but I guess I should give it a shot. Let's see, the song is just like every other song : it's about the L-word.

However, I feel that it's kinda different from any other love song with have now. I can't remember hearing a song which clearly defines and expresses how one person is able to let go of someone they love just so that person could find themself. It's just so sweet, really. Most of the songs now are just so...straightforward? So...common?

Love Story - Taylor Swift
One Time - Justin Bieber
Don't Forget - Demi Lovato
It's Alright, It's Okay - Ashley Tisdale
Say Ok - Vanessa Hudgens
Haven't Met You Yet - Michael Buble

I have all the songs on my laptop and my iPod, and honestly I do listen to at least one of them each day, but after quite sometime, it just starts to feel like not being in love is very shitty. And it will always be something like

Person A loves Person B
Person A loves Person B but Person B loves Person C
Person A loves Person B but Person B cheated on Person A
Person A broke up with Person B but misses Person B

so you get the point, right??

What do you think?? Drop me a comment ok??
