I love this song, i love Melody Gardot.
The words are really what I like.
Deep within your heart, you know it’s plain to see
Like Adam was to Eve, you were made for me
They say the poisoned vine, breeds a finer wine
Our love is easy
If you ask me plainly, I would gladly say
I’d like to have you round just for them rainy days
I like the touch of your hand
The way you make no demands
Our love is easy
Our love is easy
Like water rushing over stone
Oh, our love is easy
Like no love, I’ve ever known
Physically speaking, we were made to last
Examine all the pieces of our recent past
There’s your mouth of tears
Your hands around my waist
Our love is easy
Every time we meet, it’s like the first we kiss
Never growing tired of this endlessness
It’s a simple thing, we don’t need a ring
Our love is easy
Our love is easy
Like water rushing over stone
Oh, our love is easy
Like no love, I’ve ever known
Our love is easy
Like water rushing over stone
Oh, our love is easy
Like no love, I’ve ever known
Deep within your heart, you know it’s plain to see
Like Adam was to Eve, you were made for me
They say the poisoned vine, breeds a finer wine.
OKAY I HAVE TO ASK
Was anyone else seriously confused by this picture?! It looks there are three people involved here. The guy in the striped shirt. The girl in a light grey sweater. And an unknown person in a Christmas-y sweater, with their arms wrapped around the guy?? Haha, this was so awkward until I realized that what I thought was the girl’s body was really the guys knee/leg…
Sigh.

I’ll never find a love like this again.
Never. Ever.
Back in 1958, John Steinbeck, author of East of Eden, The Grapes of Wrath, and Of Mice and Men, got a letter from his teenage son Thom, in which Thom confessed that he had fallen desperately in love with a girl named Susan at his boarding school.
Steinbeck wrote this wise and wonderful letter back to him the same day…
New York
November 10, 1958
Dear Thom:
We had your letter this morning. I will answer it from my point of view and of course Elaine will from hers.
First — if you are in love — that’s a good thing — that’s about the best thing that can happen to anyone. Don’t let anyone make it small or light to you.
Second — There are several kinds of love. One is a selfish, mean, grasping, egotistical thing which uses love for self-importance. This is the ugly and crippling kind. The other is an outpouring of everything good in you — of kindness and consideration and respect — not only the social respect of manners but the greater respect which is recognition of another person as unique and valuable. The first kind can make you sick and small and weak but the second can release in you strength, and courage and goodness and even wisdom you didn’t know you had.
You say this is not puppy love. If you feel so deeply — of course it isn’t puppy love.
But I don’t think you were asking me what you feel. You know better than anyone. What you wanted me to help you with is what to do about it — and that I can tell you.
Glory in it for one thing and be very glad and grateful for it.
The object of love is the best and most beautiful. Try to live up to it.
If you love someone — there is no possible harm in saying so — only you must remember that some people are very shy and sometimes the saying must take that shyness into consideration.
Girls have a way of knowing or feeling what you feel, but they usually like to hear it also.
It sometimes happens that what you feel is not returned for one reason or another — but that does not make your feeling less valuable and good.
Lastly, I know your feeling because I have it and I’m glad you have it.
We will be glad to meet Susan. She will be very welcome. But Elaine will make all such arrangements because that is her province and she will be very glad to. She knows about love too and maybe she can give you more help than I can.
And don’t worry about losing. If it is right, it happens — The main thing is not to hurry. Nothing good gets away.
Love,
Fa
Absolutely love it.
