Hello Music Lovers on Hive, this is my entry for Hive Open Mic week 118. The theme of this week is "Love hurts" and this theme was chosen by @khaleesii
For this week, I'll be playing a piece by Adele titled "Someone Like You."
This song clearly expresses the idea of "Love Hurts" in its story. It tells the story of estranged Lovers: the man, in the story, has obviously moved on, while the woman still struggles and she finds it hard to believe that the two are no longer together.
Indeed love hurts when things go "south" between lovers; love hurts when the unexpected happens and shatter the relationship between lovers. It becomes sour when the ingredients (trust, communication, understanding...etc) are no longer active.
It hurts, especially when we get heartbreak in a manner we didn't expect. It hurts when we are served "breakfast." 💔
By the way, the word "breakfast" is a slang for "heartbreak" in Nigeria. So when I say @benii served me breakfast, it means she broke my heart 💔 😪
I played the chords and melody of the song with my guitar. However, I encountered a synchronisation problem while recording this piece 🤦♂️ it affected it so much. But, I hope you enjoy this piece ❤
I heard that you're settled down
That you found a girl and you're married now
I heard that your dreams came true
Guess she gave you things, I didn't give to you
Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light
I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face
And that you'd be reminded that for me, it isn't over
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
"Don't forget me, " I beg
I remember you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead"
"Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead"
You know how the time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised in a summer haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days
I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face
And that you'd be reminded that for me, it isn't over
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
"Don't forget me, " I begged
I remember you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead"
Nothing compares, no worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes, they're memories made
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
"Don't forget me, " I beg
I remember you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead"
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you, too
"Don't forget me, " I begged
I remember you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead"
"Sometimes it lasts in love, but sometimes it hurts instead"
