Was recently introduced to this song by some friends. Affirmation by Savage Garden. As lovely as the song sounds, the lyrics are the most beautiful part, and I'll share them here. But if you have the chance to hear the real thing, take it

I just love this... it's simply nice.

I believe the sun should never set upon an argument
I believe we place our happiness in other people's hands
I believe that junk food tastes so good because it's bad for you
I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do
I believe that beauty magazines promote low self esteem
I believe I'm loved when I'm completely by myself alone

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye

I believe you can't control or choose your sexuality
I believe that trust is more important than monogamy
I believe your most attractive features are your heart and soul
I believe that family is worth more than money or gold

I believe the struggle for financial freedom is unfair
I believe the only ones who disagree are millionaires

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye

I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness
I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed
I believe that God does not endorse TV evangelists
I believe in love surviving death into eternity

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye

Ahhh, Savage Garden. Bringing back Jr. High memories... come to think of it, I don't have any Jr/ High memories that could be considered good... BUT I love Savage Garden. That was the first song of theirs I ever heard. It's so wonderfully happy. It always put me in a fantastic mood.

*floats away in bliss*

.. *cough*. Yeah. Great song though.

When I was young / I didn't know if I was better off asleep or up
Now I've grown up / I wonder what was that world I was dreaming of? Nada Surf
