To whom it may concern


This is the first time I'm going to post a song lyric here. maybe because I had never found one that I would feel so identified with. not that I haven't listened to a lot of songs though. not that I pay attention to lyrics all the time anyways.

"people fear what they don't know", right?
I just know I'm a gypsy and I'm realizing that settling has become my only fear...and that I've also stolen a lot of stuff too.

So here it goes:

Gypsy (performed by Shakira)
A. Ghost/Shakira/I. Dench/C. Sturken/E. Rogers

Broke my heart on the road
Spend the weekends sewing the pieces back on
Crayons and dolls pass me by
Walking gets too boring when you learn how to fly

Not the homecoming kind
Take the top off and who knows what you might find
Won't confess all my sins
You can bet all trying but you can't always win

'Cause I'm a gypsy are you coming with me?
I might steal your clothes and wear them if they fit me
Never made agreements just like a gypsy
And I won't back down 'cause life's already bit me
And I won't cry I'm too young to die if you're going to quit me
'Cause I'm a gypsy

I can't hide what I've done
Scars remind me of just how far that I've come
To whom it may concern
Only run with scissors when you want to get hurt

'Cause I'm a gypsy are you coming with me?
I might steal your clothes and wear them if they fit me
Never made agreements just like a gypsy
And I won't back down 'cause life's already bit me
And I won't cry I'm too young to die if you're going to quit me
'Cause I'm a gypsy

And I say
Hey you you're no fool if you say no
Ain't it just the way life goes
People fear what they don't know
Come along for the ride
Coma along for the ride

'Cause I'm a gypsy are you coming with me?
I might steal your clothes and wear them if they fit me
Never made agreements just like a gypsy
And I won't back down 'cause life's already bit me
And I won't cry I'm too young to die if you're going to quit me
'Cause I'm a gypsy
