This Time We’ll Take It Slow…

As all my loyal readers know, I absolutely love John Legend. Every time I put my iPod on shuffle and Ordinary People comes on, I feel my face light up and a smile comes across my face. I love that song. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, first, slap yourself, then click here and download it from iTunes, you silly bastid.

I was talking to Jonathan the other day about how every time I listen to Ordinary People it makes me wish I was in love and alla that. Take these lyrics, for example…

“I know I misbehaved, and you made your mistakes, and we both still got room left to grow. And though love sometimes hurts I still put you first and we’ll make this thing work but I think we should take it slow”

Beautiful shit, right? It’s like sayin… “I know this shit is hard, but you know what? Being with you makes it ALL worth it! I love you baby!”

Then I listen to “She Don’t Have To Know” and realize why the FUCK I’m not in love. Case and point:

Stealing moments just to be with you. Though its wrong its hard to tell the truth but she don’t have to know… she don’t have to know. I go to the other side of town so I will never risk the chance of catching her eye ’cause she don’t have to know… she don’t have to know

You LYING CHEATING GOOD FOR NOTHING BASTARDS!! All of you! Am I bitter? Fuck yes! Can you blame me? Fuck no!

    John is just keeping it real. He got the love song on there but then he slaps you in the face with reality with the other one. So he did a good thing, lol.

    I don’t like how a good amount of women take his cheating songs as “well, he’s just telling the truth .. that’s how men are”
