Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs.

I'm one of those people.

I haven't been in the best mood the past couple of days, outside of my time at church which was AMAZING, and sometimes, silly love songs are exactly what make me smile.

Specifically, silly One Direction love songs. But these aren't silly. They're beautiful, and the lyrics, to me, are beyond what you would expect from the world's most popular "boy band."

So to my ladies out there (or gentlemen, I don't know), if you're in need of a good love song or two, I hope you enjoy these.



My hands, your hands,
tied up like two ships,
drifting, weightless.
Waves try to break it.
I'd do anything to save it.
Why is it so hard to say it?

My heart, your heart,
sit tight like bookends,
pages between us
written with no end.
So many words we're not saying.
Don't wanna wait 'til it's gone.
You make me strong.

I'm sorry if I say I need you,
but I don't care. I'm not scared of love
'cause when I'm not with you, I'm weaker.
Is that so wrong?
Is it so wrong
that you make me strong?

Think of how much
love that's been wasted.
People always
trying to escape it
move on to stop their heart breaking,
but there's nothing I'm running from.
You make me strong.

I'm sorry if I say I need you,
but I don't care. I'm not scared of love
'cause when I'm not with you, I'm weaker.
Is that so wrong?
Is it so wrong?

So, baby, hold on to my heart, oh.
Need you to keep me from falling apart.
I'll always hold on
'cause you make me strong.

I'm sorry if I say I need you,
but I don't care. I'm not scared of love
'cause when I'm not with you, I'm weaker.
Is that so wrong?
Is it so wrong?

I'm sorry if I say I need you,
but I don't care. I'm not scared of love
'cause when I'm not with you, I'm weaker.
Is that so wrong?
Is it so wrong
that you make me strong?

I'm sorry if I say I need you,
but I don't care. I'm not scared of love
'cause when I'm not with you, I'm weaker.
Is that so wrong?
Is it so wrong
that you make me strong?



I got a heart,
and I got a soul.
Believe me, I will use them both.

We made a start,
be it a false one, I know.
Baby, I don't want to feel alone.

So kiss me where I lay down,
my hands pressed to your cheeks,
a long way from the playground.

I have loved you since we were 18,
long before we both thought the same thing,
to be loved and to be in love.
All I can do is say that these arms were made for holding you, oh.
I want a love like you made me feel when we were 18.

We took a chance.
God knows we tried,
yet all along, I knew we'd be fine.

So pour me a drink, oh, love.
Let's split the night wide open,
and we'll see everything we can,
livin' love in slow motion, motion, motion.

So kiss me where I lay down,
my hands pressed to your cheeks,
a long way from the playground.

I have loved you since we were 18,
long before we both thought the same thing,
to be loved and to be in love.
And all I can do is say that these arms were made for holding you, oh,
and I want a love like you made me feel when we were 18.

When we were 18
Oh, Lord, when we were 18

Kiss me where I lay down,
my hands pressed to your cheeks,
a long way from the playground.

I have loved you since we were 18,
long before we both thought the same thing.

To be loved and to be in love.

And all I can do is say that these arms were made for holding you,
and I want a love like you made me feel when we were 18.
I want a love like you made me feel when we were 18.
I want a love like you made me feel when we were 18.

I hope these made you smile today. If not, come back again soon. ;)
