Come Back... Be Here {Musical Mondays & Giveaway}

What is Musical Mondays?

Musical Mondays is a weekly linky party where we share a song we're into for the week, and talk about why we like it-or why it effects us. Along with talking about music, I host a month-long music related giveaway sponsored by wonderful people! July is sponsored by Joanna Marie Art who is giving away a musical makeover for an old pair of shoes for you! I'll explain more later in this post-let's get to the music.

This week's song:
Come Back... Be Here
by Taylor Swift

You said it in a simple way, 4AM the second day
How strange that I don't know you at all
We stumbled through the long goodbye
One last kiss then catch your flight, right when I was just about to fall
I told myself don't get attached but in my mind I play it back
Spinning faster than the plane that took you

And this is when the feeling sinks in, I don't wanna miss you like this
Come back... Be here, Come back... Be here.
I guess you're in New York Today, I don't wanna need you this way
Come back... Be here, Come back... be here

The delicate beginning rush
The feeling you can know so much without knowing anything at all
And now that I can't put this down
If I had known what I know now I never would have played so non-chalant
Taxi cabs and busy streets that never bring you back to me
I can't help but wish you took me with you

And this is when the feeling sinks in, I don't wanna miss you like this
Come back... Be here, Come back... Be here.
I guess you're in London today and I don't wanna need you this way
Come back... Be here, Come back... Be here.

This is falling in love in the cruelest way
This is falling for you when you are worlds away
In New York, be here
But you're in London and I break down
'Cause it's not fair that you're not around

And this is when the feeling sinks in, I don't wanna miss you like this
Come back... Be here, Come back... Be here.
I guess you're in New York Today, I don't wanna need you this way
Come back... Be here, Come back... be here

What? I like some Taylor Swift... Well, mostly just the album Red. I like most of that album and am pretty "meh" about most of her other songs. This one in particular struck a cord with me-not that I necessarily relate fully, but in some ways yes. In others I have in the past... You know. Things happen. But it's pretty and emotional, so I thought I'd share it.

What are you listening to this week?
