Stereo Hearts

My hearts a stereo,
It beats for you so listen close,
Hear my thoughts in every note,
Oh oh,
Make me your radio,
Turn me up when you feel low,
This melody was meant for you,
So sing-a-long to my stereo
Oh oh oh oh, Oh oh oh
To my stereo
Oh oh oh oh,
So sing a long to my stereo

If I was just another dusty record on the shelf,
Would you blow me off and play me like everybody else,
If I asked you to scratch my back could you handle that,
Like yikky yea Travie I can handle that,
Further more I apologize for any skipping tracks,
It's just the last girl that played me left a couple tracks,
I used to used to used to now I'm over that,
Cause holding grudges over love is ancient artifacts,
If I could only find the note to make you understand,
Now sing it softly in your ear and grab you by the hand,
Keep it stuck inside your head like your favorite tune,
And know my hearts a stereo that only plays for you

My hearts a stereo,
It beats for you so listen close,
Hear my thoughts in every note,
Oh oh,
Make me your radio,
Turn me up when you feel low,
This melody was meant for you,
So sing-a-long to my stereo
Oh oh oh oh, Oh oh oh
To my stereo
Oh oh oh oh,
So sing a long to my stereo

If I was an old school 50 pound boom box,
Would you hold me on your shoulder wherever you walk,
Would you turn my volume up in front of the cops,
And turn it higher when they told you to stop,
And all I ask is that you don't get mad at me,
When you have to purchase mad D Batteries,
Appreciate every mix tape your friends made,
You never know we come and go like on the interstate,
I think I finally found the note to make you understand,
If you can hear then sing a long and take you by the hand,
Just keep it stuck inside your head like your favorite tune,
And know my hearts a stereo that only plays for you

My hearts a stereo,
It beats for you so listen close,
Hear my thoughts in every note,
Oh oh,
Make me your radio,
Turn me up when you feel low,
This melody was meant for you,
So sing-a-long to my stereo
Oh oh oh oh, Oh oh oh
To my stereo
Oh oh oh oh,
So sing a long to my stereo

I only you pray you never leave me behind,
Because good music can be so hard to find,
Ill take your head and hold it closer to mine,
Thought love was dead but now you're changing my mind,
YEAAAAAAA

My hearts a stereo,
It beats for you so listen close,
Hear my thoughts in every note,
Oh oh,
Make me your radio,
Turn me up when you feel low,
This melody was meant for you,
So sing-a-long to my stereo
Oh oh oh oh, Oh oh oh
To my stereo
Oh oh oh oh,
So sing a long to my stereo

OK so.. this song.. Why? Well duh.. it explains pretty much how every musician or music lover feels about music. Music is life. Music is love. Music can define you. Music can express so much! I am not a huge fan of the song itself but it's growing on me and I LOVE the lyrics and the message it conveys!

it's not a sappy love song but it works.. and of course it's my life long dream to have someone write a song for or about me.. and since that hasn't happened yet.. well I'd like to imagine it would be something similar to this one.. using music literally to express feelings of love and devotion. Using music as a metaphor. Plus it's my blog and I can feel that way if I want to. So there :P

My hearts a stereo,
It beats for you so listen close,
Hear my thoughts in every note,
Make me your radio,
Turn me up when you feel low,
This melody was meant for you,
Music is in the soul, turn to me when you need me. Music is one of my biggest stress relievers. It speaks to you. It holds special meanings.

If I was an old school 50 pound boom box,
Would you hold me on your shoulder wherever you walk,
Would you turn my volume up in front of the cops,
And turn it higher when they told you to stop,
And all I ask is that you don't get mad at me,
When you have to purchase mad D Batteries,
Appreciate every mix tape your friends made,
You never know we come and go like on the interstate,

How far would you go for love, would you shout it from the roof tops? Would you let everyone know it? Appreciate and learn from the past. Life is short. People come in and out of your life all the time. Don't write them off, lock the memories in a drawer, in your mind or in your heart. They are special. Not all love is perfect either. You love someone for so many reasons. Even if they are an old school 50 pound boom box and not a shiny brand new Ipod Touch. Hold that boom box up high, be proud. Love it with all you have. Turn it up as loud as it goes, smile. Be happy! Be loved.

Further more I apologize for any skipping tracks,
It's just the last girl that played me left a couple tracks,
I used to used to used to now I'm over that,
Cause holding grudges over love is ancient artifacts,
If I could only find the note to make you understand,
Now sing it softly in your ear and grab you by the hand,
Keep it stuck inside your head like your favorite tune,
And know my hearts a stereo that only plays for you

Everyone has a past. Someone who was their first love, someone who damaged them a little someone who may have broke them at one time only to make them recover and come out stronger later. It's in the past. Leave it there. Don't let it hold you back from finding love again. Don't let someone else's past mistakes ruin something that could be wonderful for you with someone else.

I'm sure this song may have other meanings and it may even be just a song.. But I really like the lyrics and the message. Since it's my secret (or not so secret) desire to write a book someday, seeing writing like this even in a song is inspiring. Not sure the genre of music is the best format for it to be in but it works I suppose and not every love song can sound like a Celine Dion song, right?? LOL. Plus anytime I try to start and write it comes out like song lyrics or a Nicholas Sparks book that have already been written... Maybe someday I'll learn that life isn't a Nick Sparks novel or Katherine Heigel movie but for now I still hold out hope that someday it just might be for me! Is that so wrong? Guess I need to work on that whole leading man or lead singer part first tho huh?
