The Thing About Love

"The Thing About Love" - Alicia Keys

Love
Love will come find you
Just to remind you
Of who you are

Oh love
It will forsake you
Threaten to break you
Take what you got

Everybody laughs
Everybody cries
Oh it can hurt you baby
But give it a lil try
See that's the thing about love

Friends
Sometimes will blind you
Sneak up behind you
You cant give enough

Then life
It will embrace you
Totally amaze you
So you don't give up

Everybody laughs
Everybody cries
Sure it could hurt you baby

But give it a lil try
See that's the thing about love

Oh tell me that I'm not the only that's going thru it all
Oh sometimes I feel like I'm the only going thru it all
But its time
Oh its time
For me to shine
Hey
Its my time
Oh its time
For me to shine

Its my time
Said its my time
For me to shine
Its my time
Its about time
For me to shine

Cause everybody laughs
Everybody cries
Sure it could hurt u baby
But give it a lil try
That's the thing about love

My cousin's kind of a goof ball, but seeing him get teary-eyed at the rehearsal and then thank Kim's parent's for having her because she's the best thing that came into his life, made me really believe that one day I'll have that. That type of love exists and I'll have that one day. Alicia Keys, my girl, put it best in this song. Love can be so good but love can hurt so bad, but that's the thing about love, you just have to put yourself out there and try. I am so in love with love right now. I feel like the old Madel is back. The hopeless romantic that I once was is now back and I can't wait to have those feelings again. But right now, I'm content day dreaming about it and watching everyone else's love unfold before my very eyes.

I'm so excited for my brother and Rhia.
