  • So I feel like listening to my favorite song.  And why not share it with the blogging world?

    And I'd give up forever to touch you

    Cause I know that you feel me somehow

    You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be

    And I don't want to go home right now

    And all I can taste is this moment

    And all I can breathe is your life

    Cause sooner or later it's over

    I just don't want to miss you tonight

     
    And I don't want the world to see me

    Cause I don't think that they'd understand

    When everything's made to be broken

    I just want you to know who I am

     
    And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming

    Or the moment of truth in your lies

    When everything seems like the movies

    Yeah you bleed just to know your alive

    And I don't want the world to see me

    Cause I don't think that they'd understand

    When everything's made to be broken

    I just want you to know who I am
     

    I don't want the world to see me

    Cause I don't think that they'd understand

    When everything's made to be broken

    I just want you to know who I am

    I just want you to know who I am

    I just want you to know who I am

    I just want you to know who I am

    I just want you to know who I am

    Is this about a guy who would give up his eternal salvation to sleep with someone?  Pete

  • Well, the song comes from a movie that I haven't seen (City of Angels)- but if I understand it correctly it is about an Angel who falls in love with a woman.  Perhaps he is saying that he would give up his angelic status to become a man so that he could be with her.  "Touch" doesn't have to become a euphemism for sex.  Maybe the love of that women to him was more of "Heaven" than the actual place he lived as a angel.

    In terms of applying the song to me- I certainly would not give up Eternal Life to have sex with a woman- I would rather marry her in the Temple and be with her forever.  There are other ways that I connect to the song.  Fear not, you don't have to worry about me!
