There's no easy way to you know, the [Bb] song is there's no easy way but it was there's no easy way to
To break up with someone and then you give me this song and it's like
This is me when I go through breakups
It's like I'm the person that
when I'm being broken up with I try to not
_ I
Guess it's self-preservation.
I guess you could say I try to
_ _ Remain
Stoic _ I guess you can say I tried to not oh, excuse me.
I tried to not
_ Show a lot of emotion
While the breakup is happening and I only let that part of me out after
It's over and I find myself alone and the song is like kind of describing me and it's like, okay
You're gonna break up you're breaking up with me
I'll take it.
I'll
Understand I would rather you break up with me then cheat on me.
I would rather you break up with me then
us
Filling the part that fill that part of the love that is drifting apart.
I would rather you be
You break up with me before things got get worse
Because this is the reason why our relationship isn't working out and maybe I don't see it yet
But obviously you see it
So you're going to in the relationship [N] and I was spec a person who would break up with me before
Resorting to it becoming nasty and
That's me I'm saying okay, I'm gonna be strong
until the door closes and then when the door closes
That's when I break down and cry and then it's like this song is like ah, this is me.
Oh
Man, that's such a good song
The vocals were beautiful, too.
I never heard of this person before Jean Pitney
He has a very unique voice
I bet you if I hear anything else of his or if I hear a song of his and not remember his name
I remember this voice is a very distinct voice and I really like that
it's really because it's kind of like it's got like a tear in it and it's kind of like kind of quirky and
I like that.
I like a person who has a distinct voice
I like someone who sounds unique to themselves and he sounds very unique and I appreciate that and I love the
harmonies that was beautiful as well and it also like
Kind of brought in the sadness too because you felt it like echoing in the song
So I really like that.
But yes, I will put this on my phone.
I would definitely put this on my phone
So I can't listen to every day.
Of course, it will be with the asterisk
I could not listen to this every day or I'll be crying my eyes out
