Because You Love Me [And Because I Love You] (Song + Lyrics)

Nov26

For Sirishty

[Verse 1]

Anyone who messes with you
Better bring their whole crew
I don’t back down to one or two
Not when I love you

Better bring their gods too
Because I’m bulletproof
When I’m near you
When I hear you

Anyone who makes you cry
Better take a look in my eyes
I’m not standing down
Until I live or die

Anyone who harmed you
Gonna wish they charmed you
I’ll run and punch through walls
If I have to

[Bridge]

I’ll take sticks and stones
I’ll take shoves and falls
I’ll take looks and stares
I’ll take the whole and all

I’ll take the scares and jumps
I’ll take pain and bumps
I’ll take the wounds and lumps
I’ll the take whatever you want

[Verse 2]

Anyone who hates you
Better learn to love you
Cause I’m a bodyguard
To a superstar

Better not try me
I won’t be stymied
It’s worth a handful of scars
To protect a work of art

Anyone who messes with you
Better bring their whole crew
I don’t back down to a few
Not when I love you

Better bring a god or two
Because I’m bulletproof
When I’m not far from you
I can’t be hurt by fools

[Chorus]

Because you love me
I will fight a duel
Because you love me
I’m strong as bamboo

Because love me
Because I love you
Because you love me
Because I love you

I can’t think of you
As anything other than a poem
A place where the best lines meet
Where beauty always breathes
An immortalization of a dream

Unfinished

Nov1

There are 500 poems, now
That I left incomplete
Some of them
Just without periods
The reason always the same:
I don’t want us to end

The Day You Came (Song + Lyrics)

Jun9

For Sirishty (Baar baar din ye aaye! Baar baar dil ye gaaye!)

[Chorus]

Happy Birthday! (Bum-Bum-Yum-Bah-Dum)
Happy Birthday! (Bum-Bum-Yum-Bah-Dum)
This is your day! (Bum-Bum-Yum-Bah-Dum)
This is your day! (Bum-Bum-Yum-Bah-Dum)

Happy Birthday! (Bum-Bum-Yum-Bah-Dum)
Happy Birthday! (Bum-Bum-Yum-Bah-Dum)
Love you always (Bum-Bum-Yum-Bah-Dum)
Love you always (Bum-Bum-Yum-Bah-Dum)

[Verse 1]

The day that you were born
The world was all in pain
But the sky opened up
When it heard your name

The day you walked my way
I felt it right away
I’d treat you like a queen
And you’d forever reign

[Verse 2]

If there’s ever a day
When you’re in too much pain
I hope these words I say
Take your frown away

You know the day you came
I threw my cares away
There’s nothing like your love
It’s like a sacred prayer

It’s like a sacred prayer…
So:

[Chorus]

Pull (Song + Lyrics)

Feb14

For Sirishty Thakur

[Verse 1]
Was in a hole when I first met you
There was no sun and there was no truth

I didn’t know that words had pull
But, uh, you made believe in something new

The way you love’s like a postcard view
And, uh, I never want to stray from you

I didn’t know your words had pull
But, uh, you lift me up to the penthouse, boo

[Pre-Chorus]
You’re nothing, you’re nothing
You’re nothing that’s bad
You’re something, you’re something
That I have to have … That I have to have

[Chorus]
You lift me up
You got you wings
You lift me up
You’re angeling

You lift me up
I hear them sing
You lift me up
I’m leveling

You life me up
You spread your wings
You lift me up
You’re angeling

You lift me up
I hear them sing
You lift me up
I’m leveling

[Pre-Chorus]
You’re nothing, you’re nothing
You’re nothing that’s sad
You’re something, you’re something
That I have to have … That I have to have

[Chorus]

Valentining (Song + Lyrics)

Feb14

For Siristhy Thakur

[Verse 1]
Falling for forever when you show me your heart
I’d rather look at you than look at the stars
I always thought you belonged in the sky
The day you leave me is the day that I die

So far from special
They should make a new word
You’re not from Heaven
But you’re not from this Earth

If you were a color
You be only gold
I wanna hold you
Like you’re part of my soul

[Pre-Chorus]
Queen, Devi, Goddess, Pearl
It doesn’t matter
Be my valentine, girl

Queen, Devi, Goddess, Pearl
It doesn’t matter
Be my valentine girl

[Chorus x2]
Will you be?!
Will you be?!
Will you be?!
Will you be?!

I will beg!
I will beg!
Til I’m down on my knees!

Forever and ever
Is all that I need
Forever and ever
We’re valentining

[Bridge]
I guess in the end
I just want someone true
I guess that means
I want someone like you

[Chorus 2]
Will you please?!
Will you please?!
Will you please?!
Will you please?!

I will beg!
I will beg!
Til I’m down on my knees!

Forever and ever
Is all that I need
Forever and ever
We’re valentining

No

Dec31

I won’t wish you a Happy New Year
Since I wished you a Happy Birthday
And
You never replied

(Perhaps you just forgot it was your day?)

No, I won’t wish you a Happy New Year
But if the world was ending
Only
You know where I’d be

Following Love (Song + Lyrics)

Dec27

For Sirishty Devi

[Chorus]
I think I’m falling in love
I think I’m falling in love
I think I’m falling in
I think I’m falling in

I keep on following love
I keep on following love
I keep on following
I keep on following

[Verse 1]
It doesn’t matter what they tell us to do
I’m still gonna be with you
It doesn’t matter what they want us to do
I’m still gonna stay with you

It doesn’t matter what they want us to say
I’m not going anywhere
It doesn’t matter what they force us to do
I’m still gonna stand by you

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
I hope they tell us what to do
Cause I’m never gonna stray from you
I hope they tell us what to say
So I can show them that I’ll always stay

[Chorus x2]
I think I’m falling in love
I think I’m falling in love
I think I’m falling in
I think I’m falling in

I keep on following love
I keep on following love
I keep on following
I keep on following … my heart

Skyline (Lyrics + Song)

Nov25

[Verse 1]

I never knew that it could feel like this
And I … never knew that love could get this big
You only find this on a movie screen
I think I found it in a real-life scene

You were smarter before we met
And I … was nothing but an idiot
Cause I … didn’t know that love could grow this big
Or that … I could feel like this

[Chorus]
You’re my, sky-sky-sky-line
All the time-ime-ime-ime
And I rise-ise-ise-ise
When I’m by your side-ide-ide-ide

The stars align-ign-ign-ign
When you walk-alk-alk-alk on by
My eyes-eyes-eyes-eyes
All the time-ime-ime-ime-ime

[Verse 2]

I never knew that it could feel like this
So I … never really dreamed of this
But I …. want to hold on to this
For forever’s lifetime

I’ve been smarter since the day we met
And you … still think I’m an idiot
Cause I … see forever within our kiss
I’m doing everything to hold on to it

[Chorus]
