Hey
Ohh, yeah
How could the one I gave my heart to
Break my heart so bad?
How could the one who made me happy
Make me feel so sad?
Won't somebody tell me
So I can understand?
If you love me
How could you hurt me like that?
How could the one I gave my world to
Throw my world away?
How could the one who said, "I love you"
Say the things you say?
How could the one I was so true to
Just tell me lies?
How could the one I gave my heart to
Break this heart of mine? Tell me
How could you be so cold to me
When I gave you everything?
All my love, all I had inside
How could you just walk out the door?
How could you not love me anymore?
I thought we had forever, I can't understand
How could the one I shared my dreams with
Take my dreams from me?
How could the love that brought such pleasure
Bring such misery?
Won't somebody tell me
Somebody tell me please
If you love me
How could you do that to me?
Tell me
Hey
How could you just walk out the door?
How could you not love me anymore?
I thought we had forever, I can't understand
(How could the one) how could the one I gave my heart to
Break my heart so bad? (Break my heart, oh)
How could the one who made me happy (you made me so happy)
Make me feel so sad? (You made me feel so sad)
Won't somebody tell me? (Won't they tell me)
So I can understand (so I can understand)
If you love me, how could you hurt me like that? (How do you hurt me? Oh)
The one I gave my world to
Throw my world away? (Throw my world away)
How could the one who said, "I love you" (you said you loved me)
Say the things you say? (Do you really love me)
How could the one I was so true to
Just tell me lies? (You told me lies, baby)
How could the one I gave my heart to
How could the one I gave my heart to, ooh
How could the one I gave my heart to
Break this heart of mine, tell me?

I feel that this song is about how she gave someone her heart and everything she had(as in her trust) and that person turned around and just threw it all away..This song is really sad and i've been through this before..And I just want to say RIP Aaliyah..

These lyrics could not possibly sum up my feelings more at the moment - sofar, I've listened to it on repeat about 600 times, and I'm still not sick of it. It's such a beautiful song.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer Thursday In regards to the meaning of this song:Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul. Bron-Y-Aur Stomp Led Zeppelin This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping. Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri Hayalperest This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society. Gentle Hour Yo La Tengo This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.Great version of a great song, I Can't Go To Sleep Wu-Tang Clan This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.Rate These Lyrics
