Just thinking of words, beauty, lyrics, etc

The kind of writing I enjoy reading most are those words that just flow with beauty, like music. Like poetry. It doesn't have to have big philosophical ideas behind it and it does not have to be very entertaining. I just enjoy reading words that make the ideas behind it beautiful to read. Thats why I enjoy Paulo Coelho so much, not only because of his humanity but because of how he makes things that are hard to say become simple and beautiful at the same time. I used to read a lot of poetry when I was younger because I had a friend then who loved poetry, I still do but not as much as I should, I guess.

I like reading song lyrics too. I just randomly look for songs that I remember lines from and see if there are more beautiful lyrics in there. Here's today's song, "searching for a heart". Sung by Don Henley, written by  Warren Zevon.


Darkness in the morning
Shadows on the land
Certain individuals
Aren't sticking with the plan

And I'm searching for a heart
Searching everyone
They say love conquers all
You can't start it like a car
You can't stop it with a gun

Leaving in the evening
Traveling at night
Staying inconspicuous
I'm staying out of sight

And I'm searching for a heart
Searching everyone
They say love conquers all
You can't start it like a car
You can't stop it with a gun

They tell me love requires a little standing in line
And I've been waiting for you, lover, for a long, long time
I've been pacing the floor
I've been watching the door
Meanwhile I'll keep searching for a heart

Searching high and low for you
Trying to track you down
Certain individuals
Have finally come around

And I'm searching for a heart
Searching everyone
They say love conquers all
You can't start it like a car
You can't stop it with a gun

They tell me love requires a little standing in line
And I've been waiting for you, lover, for a long, long time
I've been pacing the floor I've been watching the door
Meanwhile I'll keep searching for a heart
Searching everyone
They say love conquers all
You can't start it like a car
