"Freedom, beauty, truth and love" Toulouse-Lautrec [Moulin Rouge]

Valentines day! The last day in our love songs countdown. It's sad to part with this but I really have enjoyed these past two weeks. It's made the build up to this holiday actually enjoyable, and, for once, I don't have any ill feelings for this day. So I guess this was a successful endeavor :)

AND Today is my lovely father's birthday! He's the big 50, which is odd to me, cause that means that I really have been on the strange world for 21 years. In honor of him, the final song on our countdown of love songs is by a band that he loves. Every time they come on in the car or on a road trip he just had to listen to them. Everyone enjoy this song and enjoy this day. Tell someone you love them and eat some chocolate! Happy Valentine's Day Y'all!

#14 Love You Madly
Cake


I don't want to wonder
If this is a blunder
I don't want to worry whether
We're going to stay together
'Till we die

I don't want to jump in
Unless this music's thumping
All the dishes rattle in the cupboards
When the elephants arrive

I want to love you madly
I want to love you now
I want to love you madly, ouais
I want to love you, love you
Love you madly

I don't want to fake it
I just want to make it
The ornaments look pretty
But they're pulling down the branches
Of the Tree

I don't want to think about it
I don't want to talk about it
When I kiss your lips
I want to sink down to the bottom
Of the sea

I want to love you madly
I want to love you now, yeah
I want to love you madly, ouais
I want to love you, love you
Love you madly

I don't want to hold back
I don't want to slip down
I don't want to think back to the one thing that I know I
Should have done

I don't want to doubt you
Know everything about you
I don't want to sit across the table from you
Wishing I could run

I want to love you madly
I want to love you now
I want to love you madly, ouais
I want to love you, love you
Love you madly
