Shannon’s Pick: Still Want You

Just another really good song that talks about the different times/parts of a relationship from the beginning  "Everyone's got a combination if you put in the time" to the difficult times "Your heart grows cold. There's something on the line. It's hard for me to show. There's something you should know".

But through it all.....

Time is passing by, I still want you
Crime is on the rise, I still want you
Climate change and debt, I still want you
Nuclear distress, I still want you
The Earth is heating up, I still want you
Hurricanes and floods, I still want you
Even more than I did before

Larry’s Perspective:

It took a few tries for me to understand what I think this song means. It's not often the words "nuclear distress" are in lyrics and that always threw me off.

But here's the key to me:

If you put in the time

We did. It was not always easy. It was not always hard. It wasn't without it's trials and tribulations. But we're in a pretty fantastic place now and it's kind of depressing to think about couples who never reach this stage of nirvana.

I can only hope that people find who they're meant to be with...

Still Want You
Brandon Flowers

Everyone's got a combination
If you put in the time
The numbers come like a revelation
You show me yours
I'll show you mine
And when you're down, girl, you got to know this
Nobody else is in your room
We'll make it through

Time is passing by, I still want you
Crime is on the rise, I still want you
Climate change and debt, I still want you
Nuclear distress, I still want you
The Earth is heating up, I still want you
Hurricanes and floods, I still want you
Even more than I did before

I used to think that I knew the big time
Before you came around
That I was up in the velvet goldmine
And you put my feet back on the ground
A peace of mind is a lot to ask for
These silly days
But we've got it made
Don't let it fade, oh no

Time is passing by, I still want you
Crime is on the rise, I still want you
Climate change and debt, I still want you
Nuclear distress, I still want you
The Earth is heating up, I still want you
Hurricanes and floods, I still want you
Even more than I did before

And when your mind's made up
I'm gonna bring it down
And when you got no time
You're gonna see it found
Your heart
Grows cold
There's something on the line
It's hard for me to show
There's something you should know

The time is passing by, I still want you
Crime is on the rise, I still want you
Climate change and debt, I still want you
Nuclear distress, I still want you
The Earth is heating up, I still want you
Hurricanes and floods, I still want you
Even more than I did before

The time is passing by, I still want you
Crime is on the rise, I still want you
Nuclear distress, I still want you
Climate change and debt, I still want you
The Earth is heating up, I still want you
Hurricanes and floods, I still want you
Even more than I did
Even more than I did
Before
