I love this song. Kinda gives me a case of nostalgia ^^; This video is more from Optimus' POV than Mikaela's, the reverse of what I usually do. The story is what he goes through to win her heart. Like a fairy tale, because I'm such a hopeless romantic.

Oh yeah, here's the lyrics since they're really often misheard. The vid makes more sense if you know what the real lyrics are. For YEARS I thought it was "kiss from a rose on the brain" when that ain't what he's singing. That's why diction is really important in singing >>; Some singer I just can't understand until I check their lyrics. Anyway...
Seal - "Kiss From a Rose"
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da...
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da...
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da...
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da...
There used to be a graying tower alone on the sea.
You became the light on the dark side of me;
love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill.
But did you know that when it snows,
my eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen?
Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.
Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah.
And now that your rose is in bloom,
a light hits the gloom on the gray.
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da...
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da...
There is so much a man can tell you, so much he can say.
You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain!
Baby, to me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny.
Won't you tell me, is that healthy, baby?
But did you know that when it snows,
my eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen?
Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.
Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah.
And now that your rose is in bloom,
a light hits the gloom on the gray.
I've been kissed by a rose on the gray.
I've been kissed by a rose on the gray.
I've been kissed by a rose on the gray. (And if I should fall, would it all go away?)
I've been kissed by a rose on the gray...
There is so much a man can tell you, so much he can say
You remain my power, my pleasure, my pain!
To me, you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny.
Won't you tell me, is that healthy, baby?
But did you know that when it snows,
My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen?
Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.
Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah.
And now that your rose is in bloom,
a light hits the gloom on the gray.
Yes, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.
Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah.
Now that your rose is in bloom,
a light hits the gloom on the gray.
Ba-da-da, ba-da-da-da-da-da, ba-da-da...
Now that your rose is in bloom,
a light hits the gloom on the gray.
