When a Song Comes Along

Sometimes you want to say it but you can’t. You just don’t have the courage. You’re embarrassed. Then a song comes along that does it for you.

When a Song Comes Along

by: Ronovan

All my Friends here that wander by know I love music. I cannot listen to it often, if at all, but there are still those songs of long ago that I will see a lyric or it will slip into my mind as I write a word and it comes back to me. There are even songs from more recent years that have found their way to me even without my having been on the look out for them.

 

You may wonder how can I know they are from recent years when I have the whole memory thing going for me. I can look up a song lyric and find when the song was recorded. I do happen to play around with computers every now and then. Just saying. (I say that a lot, don’t I?)

 

Sometimes that melody or groove just can’t be denied. Maybe that’s the only thing you enjoy and the lyrics don’t matter. Sometimes you really do want to ignore the words or it ruins the whole experience. (JS) See what I did there? I got that acronym thing going now. Oh yeah.

 

But then we have those songs that . . .  just can’t be denied. Yes, the melody catches us but then the lyrics keep us and carry us away to another place. And the good ones just say what you always wanted to say.

 

That brings me to the song.

 

You want to say those words to the woman in your life and the woman in your life wants you to say them. This hit record wasn’t just from luck. The man picked  a song that was universal and every man and woman could listen to and get lost for several minutes. Your heart softened your eyes got a little dreamy and the corners of your lips turned up slightly as the song took you away and you just fell in love all over again. Just be sure when you hear the song come on, you pull over and stop before your eyes close as you just slip back into that dreamy land of love of . . . yes . . . you can sing it . . . your eyes, your hair, your smile . . . you’re amazing.

 

 

Please enjoy the #1 hit . . .

Bruno Mars and Just The Way You Are.

 

“Just The Way You Are”

Ohhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhhh

[Verse 1:]

Oh, her eyes, her eyes

Make the stars look like they’re not shinin’

Her hair, her hair

Falls perfectly without her trying

She’s so beautiful

And I tell her everyday

Yeah

I know, I know

When I compliment her she won’t believe me

And it’s so, it’s so

Sad to think that she don’t see what I see

But every time she asks me, “Do I look okay?”

I say,

[Chorus:]

When I see your face (face, face…)

There’s not a thing that I would change

‘Cause you’re amazing (amazing)

Just the way you are (are)

And when you smile (smile, smile…)

The whole world stops and stares for a while

‘Cause, girl, you’re amazing (amazing)

Just the way you are (are).

Yeah

[Verse 2:]

Her lips, her lips

I could kiss them all day if she’d let me

Her laugh, her laugh

She hates but I think it’s so sexy

She’s so beautiful

And I tell her everyday,

Oh you know, you know, you know

I’d never ask you to change

If perfect’s what you’re searching for

Then just stay the same

So don’t even bother asking if you look okay

You know I’ll say,

[Chorus:]

When I see your face (face, face…)

There’s not a thing that I would change

‘Cause you’re amazing (amazing)

Just the way you are (are)

And when you smile (smile, smile…)

The whole world stops and stares for a while

‘Cause, girl, you’re amazing (amazing)

Just the way you are (are)

The way you are

The way you are

Girl, you’re amazing (amazing)

Just the way you are (are)

[Chorus:]

When I see your face

There’s not a thing that I would change

‘Cause you’re amazing (amazing)

Just the way you are (are)

And when you smile

The whole world stops and stares for a while

‘Cause, girl, you’re amazing

Just the way you are

Yeah

  1. One of my favorite songs from him 🙂 I can’t live without music. He’s from Hawaii you know 🙂 I watched him as little Elvis when he was just a young lad. He comes from a very talented family.

    • Thank you very much. I like to approach sharing music videos a little differently. There are stories to them all. I don’t like to just throw a video up to have something to put out.

  2. You know I have heard this song and probably sang it in the car without really listening to the lyrics as they were together, but rather separate pieces. I have never taken the time to look at them as a whole. Thank you for presenting this and giving us a chance to look at it in a new light. It truly is a beautiful song with a powerful message of love.
