Two Notes to the Below Song

(1) Like most lyrics, these don't really hold up apart from the music -- their magic is in the way they are sung. SO, listen to the song, don't just read. (2) Music videos detract from the personal experience of songs, giving concrete imagery and associations to otherwise ambiguous lyrical content; while that's not necessarily a terrible thing, sometimes its nice to go for the pure encounter (in the below case, it's highly recommended).
