Give
Me You
I
thought to write of this the day this album came out and I played it out like
200 times in 2 days for 2 reasons, what the song sounded in my head emotionally
& what the song made me think about my career and recent Decisions.I said to
myself “self if you like this song and things do or don’t change blog it” I
said other self your right. So here we are things have changed and I still love
this song so we will kick this one off with some lyric reference;
“Sexy words don‘t
mean that much to Me Cause I heard just about Everything. That a man could ever
Say To me to make me Stay. Before now I need More…
Chorus: So don’t
bring me Roses, Bring me the Truth Don’t buy me Diamonds, Cause that just won’t
Do Material things I can buy myself if I really want To I need something
Special, I need something New Just Give Me You.”
I am going to address the obvious in my head the
relationship portion I think its not to much to ask to just want the person, I mean
I know me and I am a lot to handle (at times) but is that too much to ask for
in someone I don’t want a lot I just want you… I will hit one more lyrics
section then all my thoughts will pour onto the page about the song.
Things
of this World don’t mean that much to Me I need your Heart and I need Honesty If
all you’ve got is Flashiness then Please Turn around and Leave.”
So I completely
get this song on so many levels and relate in so many ways. I think for me I
know how I am and I know who I am in relationships I am the lover the friend
the quality time gift giving physical contact person. I love when it’s a connection
it works but, don’t think I need things or broken promises, unfulfilled desires,
inability to commit, or fear of the concept of us. I just need you someone who
loves me and lets me love them, excited to call me your man and content that I
am enough.
I think
people get so caught up in the façade and the masks they wear in relationships to
keep someone when you can be who you are and go from there. Give Me You is such
an easy yet difficult concept I don’t want the show or the front or all the
flashiness as Tamia put it. I Love the “don’t bring me Roses just bring me the
truth”. Personally I am so there don’t blow smoke up my ass or say what you
think I wanna hear to make me stay look at me and say what you need to say. The
thought of loneliness is a fear of mine everyone knows that I am a hopeless
romantic that doesn’t mean my standards are too high that just means step your
love game up. You know why I love the past besides the music and clothes and
dialogue, it was the way Love was portrayed in each era. The Romans, and Greeks
and Egyptians they love was seriously eternal they got buried together LOL. But
then you look at westrern culture I love the courtship the give and take the 2
equally showing up to the event we call life. Makes me so happy the 1800’s,
30,40, 60, 70’s all amazing times to just Love.
I guess I wanted
to just write about this song and how amazing it is and what it meant to me. It
may be hard or seem impossible to do but giving yourself to someone is the most
selfless thing you can do. And when your with someone or at a crossroads with
someone that concept can make you love that person more for sampling Giving you
them. Or force you to see that maybe forever isn’t with this person and that
may be ok. You see the change in yourself as if just Give Me You is all you
wanted and you could get that and it will either work itself out or become a
Disaster which oddly enough is my Post cause I am writing these right behind
each other and well listening to both songs on a 2 song playlist on repeat. So
with that my first
TO BE CONTINUED…
