About A Girl-The Academy is...

Lyrics:

One song about a girl
Can't breathe when I'm around her
I'll wait here everyday
In case she'll scratch the surface
She'll never notice

I'm not in love
This is not my heart
I'm not gonna waste these words
About a girl

WOO!

Last night I knew what to say
But you weren't there to hear it
These lines so well rehearsed
Tongue tied and overloaded
You'll never notice

I'm not in love
This is not my heart
I'm not gonna waste these words
About a girl.
I'm not in love
This is not your song
I'm not gonna waste these words
About a girl.

To be loved, To be loved
what more could you ask for?
To be loved, To be loved
everyone wants
To be loved, To be loved
what more could you ask for?
To be loved, To be loved
Everyone...
I'm not in love
This is not my heart
I'm not gonna waste these words

I'm not in love
This is not my heart
I'm not gonna waste these words
About a girl

I'm not in love
(To be loved, To be loved, what more could you ask for?)
This is not your song
(To be loved, To be loved, everyone wants)
I'm not gonna waste these words
(To be loved, To be loved , what more could you ask for?)
About a girl.

Let me just start by saying, I think I am the only person I know that liked this song the first time they heard it. Honestly. Everyone I know that I have forced to listen to this song was like "Oh that's so stupid." (in fact the only reason I ever heard this song is by my little sister saying "I hate that song that's like "I don't love you! This song isn't about you!") Some of those people stubbornly keep that opinion while others have learned to love it like I do. I suppose this is just one of those songs that you either love, or don't. It is sorta angsty, but I tend to lean towards music like that.

Plus it reminds me about Fish. ♥

You really need to read the Fairy Tale Novels, Elizabeth. You would love them.
This guy is either n o t really in love, he just likes her, or he loves her but doesn't WANT to, OR quite possibly he is falling in love with her, but really doesn't want to be in love . . . Or maybe he just doesn't know what it's like to be in love? There are many possibilities.

I got this from my favorite music analysing website:
"I sort of think it's about a guy who thinks he loves this girl, but isn't sure whether to tell her or not ("last night I knew what to say") and he denies it to his friends. Like when it says "I'm not gonna waste these words about a girl" I feel like he's trying to convince himself that he doesn't love her."
