Music Friday #24: “I Will Possess Your Heart” by Death Cab for Cutie

Welcome back, friends, to another edition of Music Friday. Nothing new back at the Ranch, except that it’s gotten really chilly here for the last few days. It seems Winter is finally here, but where’s the snow? (There’s always something to complain about when it comes to weather).

Without further adieu, on with the snow…er, show!

How I wish you could see the potential

The potential of you and me
It’s like a book elegantly bound
But in a language that you can’t read just yet

You gotta spend some time, love
You gotta spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find love
I will possess your heart

You gotta spend some time, love
You gotta spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find love
I will possess your heart

There are days when outside your window
I see my reflection as I slowly pass
And I long for this mirrored perspective
When we’ll be lovers, lovers at last

You gotta spend some time, love
You gotta spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find love
I will possess your heart

You gotta spend some time, love
You gotta spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find love
I will possess your heart

I will possess your heart
I will possess your heart

You reject my advances and desperate pleas
I won’t let you let me down so easily
So easily

You gotta spend some time, love
You gotta spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find love
I will possess your heart

You gotta spend some time, love
You gotta spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find love
I will possess your heart

You gotta spend some time, love
You gotta spend some time with me
And I know that you’ll find love
I will possess your heart

I will possess your heart
I will possess your heart
