Guryan describes an encounter in which she heard love songs playing from a building, which reminded her of a past lover. These loves songs have attracted and almost attached to her, as she cannot get herself to move on past the building and move on from him.
[Verse 1]
I heard
Pretty love songs
Comin' from an open window
Today
[Verse 2]
I stopped
To listen to the love songs
And I had to cry
Why didn't I just walk away?
[Verse 3]
I knew
All the love songs
Once upon a time he sang them
To me
[Chorus]
Today
I was cryin' in the sunshine
When someone said "Is somethin' wrong?"
And I said "No, it's just a song
And I can't tell you why
Pretty love songs always make me cry"
[Verse 3]
I knew
All the love songs
Once upon a time he sang them
To me
[Chorus]
Today
I was cryin' in the sunshine
When someone said "Is somethin' wrong?"
And I said "No, it's just a song
And I can't tell you why
Pretty love songs always make me cry"
