I've Been Thinking of Changing My Mind, It Never Stays The Same For Long

So, I was listening to my ipod last night on my way back to the apartment and I heard one of my favorite songs of the year; I thought I was going to post that as my song of the day today but...I haven't listened to it today and i'm sure it will show up again sooner or later. The song I ended up choosing I heard on my way to my 8am. This has always been one of my favorite songs but I hadn't heard it in a little while, it was such a good song to hear on my way to class this morning especially since i'd been freaking out earlier about my presentation I had to give. I was gonna go over my talk on my walk over but, I stand behind my decision of listening to this song instead, haha. So enough rambling about this song...and it is: Arithmetic by Brook Fraser.



I've been staring at the sky tonight
Marvelling and passing time
Wondering what to do with daylight
Until I can make you mine
You are the one I want, you are the one I want

I've been thinking of changing my mind
It never stays the same for long
But of all the things I know for sure
You're the only certain one
You are the one I want, you are the one I want

I've been counting up all my wrongs
One sorry for each star
See I'd apologise my way to you 
If the heavens stretched that far
You are the one I want, you are the one I want

[Chorus]
I won't find what I am looking for
If I only "see" by keeping score
'Cos I know now you are so much more than arithmetic

'Cos if I add, if I subtract
If I give it all, try to take some back
I've forgotten the freedom that comes from the fact
That you are the sum
So you are the one, I want

When the years are showing on my face
And my strongest days are gone
When my heart and flesh depart this place
From a life that sung your song

You'll still be the one I want 
You'll still be the one I want
You'll still be the one I want
You'll still be the one I want 


So yea, I absolutely love this song. I love songs with a strong piano...I looove when a song has violin in it and I love the lyrics. I was going to bold and/or italicize my favorite lyrics but, when I went to do that I realized I almost bolded (is that a word even? haha) the whole song, haha. Anyway, good stuff.
