Way Back Into Love

This is my newest favorite song. I love the fact that it is so sing-able and so easy on the ears. I remem­ber when I first heard it, I told myself that it sounds like Jason Mraz’s I am Yours in that it sounds so cool and singable. I’m hav­ing a last song syn­drome right now, with images of Drew Bar­ry­more and Hugh Grant.

This is for all the peo­ple who have fallen out of love and who feel like they don’t know how to love again. That is the most dif­fi­cult feeling—when you’ve lost all trust for your­self and other peo­ple because you’ve been hurt so bad before. When you’ve become hard-hearted that it’s hard to really move on or make a decision.

On the other hand, this is also for all the peo­ple who live life with­out regrets. Who fall deeply and madly in love, and get hurt so bad, and cry so hard, and promise them­selves never to fall in love as deeply again; only to meet another per­son who makes them cyn­i­cal in the begin­ning but who slowly builds up their trust and they’re swept off their feet. Again.

Thank you for not stay­ing cyn­i­cal.
Thank you for find­ing your way back into love.

Way Back Into Love
Hugh Grant, Drew Bar­ry­more
I’ve been liv­ing with a shadow over­head
I’ve been sleep­ing with a cloud above my bed
I’ve been lonely for so long
Trapped in the past
I just can’t seem to move on

I’ve been hid­ing all my hopes and dreams away
Just in case I ever need them again some­day
I’ve been set­ting aside time
To clear a lit­tle space in the cor­ners of my mind

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can’t make it through with­out a way back into love
Oh oh oh

I’ve been watch­ing but the stars refuse to shine
I’ve been search­ing but i just don’t see the signs
I know that it’s out there
There’s got to be some­thing for my soul somewhere

I’ve been look­ing for some­one to shed some light
Not some­body just to get me through the night
I could use some direc­tion
And I’m open to your suggestions

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can’t make it through with­out a way back into love
And if I open my heart again
I guess I’m hop­ing you’ll be there for me in the end

Oh oh oh
