Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
If you'd come clean about everything, it would be easy for you, to be sorry.
If you'd see all the possibilities, we might not still be standing where we started.
Oh no, don't let me go for this, don't let me go for this.
I might be a fool, you might be one too.
Maybe we're all that we needed.
Two wrongs don't make a right, but I don't care tonight.
Maybe we're all that we needed.
You'd say we were just a big mistake.
I think it's worth making, worth repeating.
I would say good things come to those who wait,
I would say anything if you'd believe it.
Oh no, don't let me go for this, don't let me go for this.
I might be a fool, you might be one too.
Maybe we're all that we needed.
Two wrongs don't make a right, but I don't care tonight.
Maybe we're all that we needed.
Maybe we're perfect, but not meant to be.
Maybe were more than the light ever seen.
Maybe were not meant to not disagree.
Maybe were crazy baby.

Two wrongs don't make a right but I don't care tonight. (Maybe were all that we needed.)

its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
Corpse I Fell In Love With
Gadjits, The
Gadjits, The
He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

The way this song speaks to me🥺🥺when I sing it I feel like I relate
Fortnight
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
This song is best when performed live!! yesss! I Love The Plain White T's. sooo awesome!

a correction: "maybe we're perfect, but not meant to be. or more alike than we're willing to see " etc.
I love this song. meaning is obvious. they broke up, but he doesn't want to accept that they are over and shouldn't have gotten together in the first place, etc. It's so sweet. Plain white t's rock my socks!
another correction: "maybe we're perfectly not meant to be" etc sorry to be so picky, but it does change the meaning I still love it!
this song is mint not a patch on hey there delilah but still thats because its a different mood i love it
listen to the begining of this song, and then listen to the begining of fall out boy's dance dance.
someone should get sued.
if you knew your music you would know its a cover off the guitar riff of "close to me" by the Cure
I love both songs, but completely agree with airplanes. exact same intro...i thought it was my imagination.
i lovee this song..its sound like fall out boys dance dance in the beggining..but w/e
Actually, the introduction is similiar in beat, but slightly different. My boyfriend's a drummer, and he's managed to compare the both and try it out on the drums. Apparently it's similiar, but not exact; some of the beat is off and there's fill-ins in other places that aren't in Dance, Dance - Fall Out Boy.
As for the song, I think it's alright. Probably not the best out of all of them, but the meaning's is pretty obvious; just like most of the songs that are by the Plain White T's. That's what I seem to love about them; it helps us find a soundtrack to our life... instead of spending hours trying to depict lyrics.
This isn't a song that I could relate to, but I can see the possibilities of how it could relate to those out there, especially couples who are in the same situation as the one being messaged through the lyrics. As far as the music goes, I think it's got a decent beat; not the kind that'll give me chills, though.
i guess the meaning is pretty obvious. he wanted the girl to be honest with him. their relationship was still the same as when it began and he wanted to fix tht. they were fools, and their relationship was probably a mistake, but he didnt regret it. theyre probably not perfect for one another but they make actually b more alike than they know<br /> <br /> this reminds me a lot of my exboyfriend. i sometimes think that all that we really needed to fix our relationship was to be more open with one another, but instead our relationship went nowhere. we were fools and the nearly 3 months i spent with him were probably a mistake but im glad i made it and i wouldve done it again because without that bad relationship, i wouldnt realize how much my current bf means to me. ive assumed me and my ex werent meant to be, but maybe we were and just didnt no each other well enough.
