There are very few love songs that mean much to me. Mostly because I see love as primarily something other people experience.
This song speaks to my heart. So on Valentine's Day this year I've decided to post the lyrics.
One of the things I love about Pink is how she writes about how it really feels to be a damaged girl reaching out for something sh's scared to want....
"Glitter In The Air"
Have you ever fed a lover with just your hands
Closed your eyes and trusted, just trusted
Have you ever thrown a fist full of glitter in the air
Have you ever looked fear in the face and said, "I just don't care"
It's only half past the point of no return
The tip of the iceberg
The sun before the burn
The thunder before the lightning
The breath before the phrase
Have you ever felt this way
Have you ever hated yourself for staring at the phone
You're whole life waiting on the ring to prove you're not alone
Have you ever been touched so gently you had to cry
Have you ever invited a stranger to come inside
It's only half past the point of oblivion
The hourglass on the table
The walk before the run
The breath before the kiss
And the fear before the flames
Have you ever felt this way
There you are, sitting in the garden
Clutching my coffee,
Calling me sugar
You called me sugar
Have you ever wished for an endless night
Lassoed the moon and the stars and pulled that rope tight
Have you ever held your breath and asked yourself will it ever get better than tonight
Tonight
