i love a good Poetic song lyric but also so much respect when a song can pull off a barefaced earnest statement
i keep hearing songs with good Earnest Statements and then forgetting about them whenever i revisit this tweet so i really gotta start threading them properly
1. "take all the time you need" - oh honey

oh my darling, take all the time you need
there ain't no place i'd rather be
2. "eyes closed" - the narrative

now the rain is crashing down
and oh my god, you're beautiful
3. "stolen" - dashboard confessional

aND WELL I MEAN--

(also slow version is best version)
4. “come home” - onerepublic ft. sara bareilles

and right now there’s a war between the vanities
but all i see is you and me
the fight for you is all i’ve ever known
5. "window" - now, now

"do you know i'm desperate for you" is the distinctly horny variety
6. "prettiest friend" - jason mraz

this song has been giving me grief since high school and it decided to come back on my radar today rip
7. "i have dreamed" - from the king and i

in these dreams i've loved you so
that by now i think i know
what it's like to be loved by you
i will love being loved by you
(most Designated Love Songs from movies/musicals tend not to do it for me but this has been stuck in my head for days since i reexcavated it and it's a deathening)
8. it’s been a while since i updated this thread but you ever hear a song with a good simple loopy chorus
