My Favorite Lyrics...

This song and it's lyrics are so powerful to me and our daughter loves the song as well. Positive music in the pop world and ones that aren't about having sex are often few and far between and that makes me all the more fond of this young lady, Natasha Bedingfield, for not following the crowd and standing out on her own.

Unwritten
Lyrics
Artist(Band):Natasha Bedingfield

I am unwritten,
Can't read my mind
I'm undefined
I'm just beginning
The pen's in my hand
Ending unplanned

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words
That you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions

Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten Oh

Oh, oh

I break tradition
Sometimes my tries
Are outside the lines
We've been conditioned
To not make mistakes
But I can't live that way oh, oh
(back to staring......)
