Music Monday: Just The Way You Are


I spent my late Sunday afternoon with one of my closest guy friends, Kiko at the Powerplant Mall. As usual, we had the "lovelife" talk and I cannot remember exactly what it is I said that made him say: "Hindi ka hopeless romantic, romantically frustrated ka." (You're not a hopeless romantic, you're romantically frustrated.)

I think it was that old couple (and by old I mean wrinkly skin, gray hair and slow motion walk) that we passed by walking... holding hands. Fingers-intertwined kind of holding hands. I know, right? We don't get to see that anymore. It's like those kind of relationships are too rare, extinct.

So anyway, that statement from my friend got me second guessing my claim that I'm a hopeless romantic.

I realized I have been listening to this song for a while now. I don't think that makes me hopeless, I actually think it's frustration.




Just The Way You Are - Bruno Mars

Oh her eyes, her eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying

She's so beautiful
And I tell her every day

Yeah I know, I know
When I compliment her
She wont believe me
And its so, its so
Sad to think she don't see what I see

But every time she asks me do I look okay
I say

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

Her nails, her nails
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh
She hates but I think its so sexy

She's so beautiful
And I tell her every day

Oh you know, you know, you know
Id never ask you to change
If perfect is what you're searching for
Then just stay the same

So don't even bother asking
If you look okay
You know I say

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

The way you are
The way you are
Girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
