Love Songs

“No, I’m not a fan of love songs. They’re so public — any couple that thinks they’re playing our song doesn’t realize a thousand other couples think that song belongs to them. I love you so much, I don’t want to cheapen it by borrowing words from some singer. I want to express my love for you in my own words, even though I struggle to find the words that match how I feel. I’m sorry I dissed your song — that was wrong of me, selfish. But I didn’t do it to make fun of you, to dismiss how you feel. That song can’t express how much I love you — that’s what I was reacting to. But, how about I say that I’ll be more respectful about your musical tastes from now on. Because your feelings, and your love, are more important to me than my opinions.”
