This song is perfection. I’m a sucker for soft piano. That, plus Regina’s voice = heaven.
Her lyrics are just so deep. They’re never typical; never simple. You actually have to search for the meaning (the meaning to “Call Me Maybe” is quite clear, in my opinion).
She sings:
you’ll want to go back
you’ll wish you were small
nothing can slow the crying
you’ll take the clock off of your wall
and you’ll wish it was lying
and then, the kicker:
love what you have, and you’ll have more love.
Truth. Seriously. I can think of several examples where people I know do not appreciate what they have. Just give it a thought.
“Firewood” has been added to my list of favorite songs.
