She Will Be Loved
Maroon 5

Beauty queen of only eighteen
She had some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her
She always belonged to someone else

I drove for miles and miles
And wound up at your door
I've had you so many times but somehow
I want more

I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
She will be loved

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I know I tend to get so insecure
It doesn't matter anymore

It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's compromise that moves us along, yeah
My heart is full and my door's always open
You can come anytime you want

I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved

I know where you hide
Alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls

Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful

I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved
And she will be loved

Please don't try so hard to say goodbye
Please don't try so hard to say goodbye

Yeah
I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Try so hard to say goodbye  For awhile I wanted to make a compilation of my favorite dates with Gwinny. Chronologically..

Date over Coffee
This was before we were together but it was so memorable I had to include it. After work we drove to Borders at Dolphin Mall, where we sat down to talk over coffee. While we were still only friends then, in retrospect it was exactly what I would expect in a date. We talked, we had coffee and exchanged intimate personal stories. It was pleasant and sweet. Time flew! The only thing that was missing to make it an official date was..

The First Kiss
This happened later, but it was breathtaking. I mean literally.. I couldn't breath! I couldn't breath for a few days afterwards either, but that's only because it was that good! I needed some time to recover but then we started to see each other more and more often.

Sex on the Beach
Okay not really sex.. but it was midnight turning 4th of July and there were fireworks in the air. Not just the ones made of colorful lights. We were in the water and it was dark.. She looked gorgeous in the moonlight. Thinking back I could have sworn there was music in the air ;-)

Showing for Two
We went to see the movie Post Grad a few weeks ago. It was a decent movie starring Alexis Bledel, an actress that Gwinny likes. What made this date stand out so much was that we had the entire theater to ourselves. This made the movie so much more enjoyable, because it let us laugh and comment freely. When we left the rest of the cinema was empty as well, so we had an exclusive night with each other, unmarred by the company of strangers.

The Time Traveler's Wife
At Post Grad we saw a movie preview for The Time Traveler's Wife. Gwinny bought the book to read soon after. One of our most memorable dates is when I read the book to Gwinny for several hours. It felt so intimate.. so innocent. I wish the night (and my voice) could have lasted forever, as opposed to the 80 or so pages we read. If you had come across us my pupils would probably have been shaped into tiny hearts..from how love struck I was!

The CD that this song is from reminds me of Gwinny.. mostly because she's always listening to it!
