The Trouble With Love is

I’ve never found a song so true like this one. It’s Kelly Clarkson’s 'The Trouble with Love Is' from Love Actually movie soundtrack, check out the lyrics :
Love can be a many splendored thing Can't deny the joy it brings A dozen roses Diamond rings Dreams for sale And fairy tales It’ll make you hear a symphony And you just want the world to see But like a drug that makes you blind It’ll fool you every time
LOOOOVVVEEEEE what a word, eh? It's the only thing that makes you forget everything and the only thing that keeps appearing on your mind is the face of the person you fall in love with. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't eat, I couldn't study! cos he's always on my mind. I couldn't wait to see him, I couldn't wait for the day to go by so I could see his loving face, talk to him and feel his warm embrace.
Now I was a once a fool it’s true I played the game by all the rules But now my world’s a deeper blue I’m sadder but I’m wiser too I swore I’d never love again I swore my heart would never mend Said love wasn’t worth the pain But then I hear it call my name
When love is calling, no matter how shattered you are, you pick up your broken pieces on the floor and rush to where it calls you. Because you know, you need it no matter how many times your heart've been broken, no matter how many tears you cry. As love comes and goes, you grow wiser and you keep searching for a better love because you know, you're don't deserve to experience the hurt you had in your past relationship. Anymore.
Every time I turn around I think I’ve got it all figured out My heart keeps callin And I keep on fallin Over and over again This sad story always ends the same Me standin' in the pouring rain It seems no matter what I do It tears my heart in two
I have a friend who is hurt by the girls he loved. He couldn’t believe in love and loving, but I told him, love deserves all the risks you face in having it, in maintaining it, and when you lose it one day why should you be afraid that you won’t feel how to love again? It's something that you can't escape from because deep down inside, although you feel that you'd never love again, eventually you would surrender to the beauty of it. Nobody should ever stop loving and you can never stop yourself from loving someone and being loved. You know the risk and whatever hurt it brings, you know it would never stop you.
The trouble with love is It can tear you up inside Make your heart believe a lie It's stronger then your pride The trouble with love is It doesn’t care how fast you fall And you can’t refuse the call See you’ve got no say at all
Stronger that your pride, yup, that's love. Love, according to Deep Purple, conquers all. Love, according to Eagles, keeps you alive even when you’re hungry (no matter how nonsense the lyrics is). Love, according to Wet Wet Wet, is all around you. Love plays an important role in life, you just can't run away from that. Without it, life has no meaning. The most deadly thing in the world is when someone feels that he/she’s not loved by anybody. No matter how hard it is to find someone you love, no matter how sad it is to have an unrequited love, no matter how hurt you feel inside when your heart is broken, don’t ever be afraid in loving. Fall in and out of love. Never give up loving, cos love is the most beautiful thing in the world and you deserve to have it, you deserve to be loved. Love and you’ll be loved in return. After all, LOVE, according to the Beatles, is all you need. And you know it's true.
