The song chosen and why

The song that I chose is Everytime and it is sung by Britney Spears. Miss Spears has always been my number 1 favorite singer. So, if I have to choose a song to illustrate, without doubt it will be from one of her works. I feel that Everytime will be a good choice because this song means a lot to me as well as Britney. It was the first song that Britney wrote based on her post-relationship with her ex-boyfriend, Justin Timberlake. If you read the media, you would know that her break up with Justin was the cause for her breakdown and it was also the beginning of her fall from grace. A few months later, she put all her feelings down in words and created this wonderful song. It was like an apology letter from her to Justin saying how sorry she was and how much she wanted him to get back together with her. So, it is really emotional. I feel that I can easily relate to that song as I’d experienced heartbreak before. Who doesn’t anyway?

Here's the full lyrics of the song and the paragraph that I chose (Bold):-


Notice me
And take my hand
So why are we
Strangers when
Our love is strong
Why carry on without me?

And everytime I try to fly
I fall without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, it's haunting me
I guess I need you baby

I make believe
That you are here
It's the only way
I see clear
What have I done
You seem to move on easy

And everytime I try to fly
I fall without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, it's haunting me
I guess I need you baby

I may have made it rain
Please forgive me
My weakness caused you pain
And this song is my sorry

Ohhhh

At night I pray
That soon your face
Will fade away

And everytime I try to fly
I fall without my wings
I feel so small
I guess I need you baby
And everytime I see you in my dreams
I see your face, it's haunting me
I guess I need you baby

After all...
After all...
