Have you ever...

[cookiecutter]

Came across an old song. One of my high school favourites. This song makes me happy, sad, and completely breaks my heart at the same time.

See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y04Ph6D0kTw for video. 

(On the side, I saw the following comment for that youtube video, and while I was amazed I understood every word, it also totally made my heart go AWWWWWWW:

min elskede, jeg elsker deg av hele mitt hjerte. jeg vil aldri glemme alt vi hadde sammen. jeg vil aldri glemme. jeg elsker deg and i'll keep that promise till the day i die  </3 hvis vare du ville elske meg tilbake...)

Translate: My love, I love you with all my heart. I will never forget everything we had together. I will never forget. I love you and I'll keep that promise till the day i die  </3 if only you will love me back...

Have You Ever
---------------------

Chorus:
Have you ever loved somebody so much
It makes you cry
Have you ever needed something so bad
You can't sleep at night
Have you ever tried to find the words
But they don't come out right
Have you ever, have you ever

Have you ever been in love
Been in love so bad
You'd do anything to make them understand
Have you ever had someone steal your heart away
You'd give anything to make them feel the same
Have you ever searched for words to get you in their heart
But you don't know what to say
And you don't know where to start

[Chorus]

Have you ever found the one
You've dreamed of all of your life
Just about anything to look into their eyes
Have you finally found the one you've given your heart to
Only to find that one won't give their heart to you
Have you ever closed your eyes and
Dreamed that they were there
And all you can do is wait for the day when they will care

[Chorus]

What do I gotta do to get you in my arms baby
What do I gotta say to get your heart
To make you understand how I need you next to me
Gotta get you in my world
Cause baby I can't sleep

Have you ever loved somebody so much
It makes you cry
Have you ever needed something so bad
You can't sleep at night
Have you ever tried to find the words
But they don't come out right
Have you ever, have you ever.......

It's one of those songs that REALLY do make you cry. A classic breakup song that you put on repeat when your heart has been broken.

It used to remind me of my first breakup. (The kind that you fall crazily in love and think it'll last forever and since the day it was over you've been a cynic type). These days, it reminds me of the hubby - a good 7-hour time zone difference away. 

Thanks, Brandy, for delivering the music with such powerful emotion. 

I'm with all those people out there who say how this song so appropriately describe their love lives.

Yes, I am a sucker for sappy love songs.
