Overjoyed

Stevie Wonder - Overjoyed

Over time, I've been building my castle of love
Just for two, though you never knew you were my reason
I've gone much too far for you now to say
That I've got to throw my castle away

Over dreams, I have picked out a perfect come true
Though you never knew it was of you I've been dreaming
The sandman has come from too far away
For you to say come back some other day

And though you don't believe that they do
They do come true
For did my dreams
Come true when I looked at you
And maybe too, if you would believe
You too might be
Overjoyed, over loved, over me

Over hearts, I have painfully turned every stone
Just to find, I had found what I've searched to discover
I've come much too far for me now to find
The love that I've sought can never be mine

And though you don't believe that they do
They do come true
For did my dreams
Come true when I looked at you
And maybe too, if you would believe
You too might be
Overjoyed, over loved, over me

And though the odds say improbable
What do they know
For in romance
All true love needs is a chance
And maybe with a chance you will find
You too like I
Overjoyed, over loved, over you, over you


It is probably the most powerful song I've heard. It is simply beautiful, and of course the memory that came together with this song is just ironic. I believe everyone feels it differently, yet for me it is one of memento that toppled almost everything I believe about love.

When someone is dreaming, and he dreams high, he feels like he can even move a mountain. He doesn't need supporter or someone to watch his back, yet all he wants is someone to be told. Someone who he wants to tell every single good news to. All the castles, all the dreams, all the feeling. He asks for someone to share all those things, while waiting her smile to give even more power to achieve something even more.
Sadly, she seeks for something else. Throw the castle away, wake up from dream. Painfully turning every stone only to find out that she looks for someone else.

And maybe too if you would believe, you too might be, overjoyed, over loved, over me.
