If i was a flower...

If i was a flower growing wild and free
All I’d want is you to be my sweet honey bee.
And if i was a tree growing tall and green
All I’d want is you to shade me and be my leaves

If you were a river in the mountains tall,
The rumble of your water would be my call.
If you were the winter, i know I’d be the snow
Just as long as you were with me, let the cold winds blow

If you were a wink, I’d be a nod
If you were a seed, well I’d be a pod.
If you were the floor, I’d wanna be the rug
And if you were a kiss, i know I’d be a hug

If you were the wood, I’d be the fire.
If you were the love, I’d be the desire.
If you were a castle, I’d be your moat,
And if you were an ocean, I’d learn to float.

All i want is you, will you be my bride
Take me by the hand and stand by my side
All i want is you, will you stay with me?
Hold me in your arms and sway me like the sea.

I have been thinking for a while, that life is missing something called Simplicity... and then I was reintroduced to it, thanks to the soundtrack of Juno....

Juno is a movie about how a teenage girl deals with pregnancy... a very well made movie and worth a watch....

What this post started with, is a song from the movie that I had been searching for a while now... "All I want is you..." by Barry Louis Parker... while most of the songs from the movie are beautiful, simple and easy on your heart and ears... another one that I particularly liked was "Tire Swing" by Kimya Dawson... In case you are fond of acoustic guitars, please find time to listen to So Nice So Smart by Kimya Dawson again... very nicely executed chords on the acoustics... I am really happy to have the entire soundtrack with me today... listening to it is really making me feel nice :)

I think you should also hear these songs by clicking

Here for All I want is you

And

Here for Tire Swing

If you like them, write to me and I would mail the MP3 to you


Needless to say "All I want is you..." is added to my list of favorites :)

  7. Oh..thats really nice lyrics...
    i have heared about the movie too,but havent seen so far...dont know why,I feel it would be similar to "Kya Kahna" in which Priti Zinta plays the pregnent girl role ...

  8. # Subbu...
    indeed...

    # FighterJet...
    they sure are...

    I think you should watch it... it is worlds apart from "Kya Kehna".... its about teenage pregnancy, and how Juno deals with it when her boyfriends steps back, and how she finds parents for the baby etc etc... i loved the movie...
