Boy, you got it all..


I have a new crush.

I love having new crushes. I love finding new, little, unknown songs and hold them dear to my heart. There is something magic in suddenly finding that a new song describes a part of your life just perfectly. It is like if the songwriter knew exactly how you felt and that he or she decided to sing for you, not to make you sad, not to make you happy, just to tell you that he/she understands.

So, don't ask me how I found this. The important thing is finding the song, not what I did to find this song. Sam Bradley.. Too Far Gone. Ok, you might recognize the lyrics, it is similar to Rob Pattinson's Never Thing *cough*. But I am sorry my dear Rob, this one is better, a little bit, please don't feel offended. I just think it is more mature, it is more real the lyrics for Too Far Gone (thought Rob Pattinson has a great voice that sounds like Jeff Buckley.. and as you know it.. I'd marry Jeff Buckley if I could)

The lyrics here are like a failed slap in the face to the ex. I can't explain it much better. He is begging the girl, to move on, with better and deeper words, obviously.

It is difficult to see when someone you used to love, when the relationship didn't work out, he is still hanging on you. It is really hard to see how you still are perfect in his eyes but you just can't feel the same. It is particularly beautiful the part of saving her soul. I wish I'd talk to him to ask him what he felt to write those words, but I guess that interview could wait on my *to do lists before I am 30* list.

So here it is, my new crush: Sam Bradley with Too Far gone

Artist: Sam Bradley
Song: Too Far Gone

So you come to me
For rest in my heart
Rest in my home
That's all you want

I haven't seen you lately
But you still call me baby
What about my name?

Still I stand to save your soul
Yes I stand to save your soul
Before you're too far gone
Before nothing can be done.

When I should have lied and
When I should have tried and
When I had no fight in me and
The whole world was screaming hold on
Screaming hold on.

So I come to you
For rest in your heart
Rest in your home
It's all you want

Well you learnt to hate me
But you still call me baby
I guess you forgot my name...

Still I stand to save your soul
Yes I stand to save your soul
Before you're too far gone
Before nothing can be done.

When I should have lied and
When I should have tried and
When I had no fight in me and
The whole world was screaming hold on
Screaming hold on

Girl you got it all so hold on
But you got it all so wrong
Girl you got it all so hold on
But you got it all so wrong
Girl you got it all so hold on
But you got it all so wrong

Girl you got it all so hold on
But you're just too far gone...
