The Heart Wants What It Wants

I'm not much into the newer pop, but the other day when we got cable, I was insanely bored, and found myself watching the AMA's that came on a few weeks ago and near the end, Selena Gomez ( The girl a lot of us used to watch on Wizards of Waverly Place) came out and did the world premier of "The Heart Wants What It Wants". Woohoo, another pop song whose lyrics mean nothing to anyone, right? Absolutely not. It was the first time maybe in my lifetime (I'm a 90's baby) where I was actually made to feel what she was feeling.

If any of you read the magazines, or yahoo, or don't live under a rock, you know that Justin Bieber finally broke up. (Which in her case is good) This song tells pretty much the story of her relationship (and every other girl that's been in a longtime, serious relationship with a guy that didn't treat you right.) BUT, the truly amazing thing about the music video to this song is the beginning where she pretty much talks her way through what she feels about him.

But, I'll let you decide what you think of it yourself.

Here's the lyrics, along with the music video.

The Heart Wants What It Wants- Selena Gomez

You got me sippin' on something,

I can't compare to nothing,

I've ever known, I'm hoping,

That after this fever I'll survive,

I know I'm acting a bit crazy,

Strung out, a little bit hazy,

Hand over Heart, I'm praying,

That I'm gonna make it out alive,

...

The bed's getting cold and your not here,

The future that we have is so unclear,

But I'm not alive until you call,

And I'll bet the odds against it all,

Save your advice cause' I won't hear,

You might be right but I don't care,

There's a million reasons why I should give you up,

But the heart wants what it wants,

...

You got me scattered in pieces,

Shining like stars and screaming,

Lighting me up like venus,

But then you disappear and make me wait,

And every seconds like torture,

Hell over trip, no more so,

Finding a way to let go,

Baby, baby no I can't escape,

...

This is a modern fairy tale, no happy endings,

No wind in our sails,

But I can't imagine a life without,

Breathless moments breaking me down, down, down...

....
