I am a fan of Nate Ruess, who has only several songs on Youtube, but his magnetic voice persistently calls my attention( I am not a gay), particularly  this song he made with Pink, I believe would make some people cry at night.

The background is dark, misty and dreamy.  Pink is on a mattress floating on water, confused and testy.  Throughout the show, she was kissing a different guy, sometimes beside her, sometimes disappeared altogether, to represent a dream or a feeling.  At the same time, her partner (Nate Ruess), is inside a TV box, a world away, innocently yelling "I am sorry I don't understand where all of this is coming from, I thought that we were fine...."  See, this is how men read women and this is how women react.  She sings back "Yeah, this is happening."  I think she is trying to say, "Why are you so dumb? Can't you see, I love someone else?" In a desperation, her partner (Nate Ruess) is trying to reason with her, "...We have everthing, you are running a wild dream...." Obviously, she is not convinced, because the third guy shows up in her bed again, and her partner (Nate Ruess), thank God, finally manages to get out of the TV box, arguing with her face to face. But as you can see, it won't end up well.  The odds he could win in a duel with a guy whose body is covered with tattoo is zero.   I just love the song and hope you enjoy it too. 


Right from the start
You were a thief
You stole my heart
And I your willing victim
I let you see the parts of me
That weren't all that pretty
And with every touch you fixed them

Now you've been talking in your sleep, oh, oh
Things you never say to me, oh, oh
Tell me that you've had enough
Of our love, our love

Just give me a reason
Just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
It's in the stars
It's been written in the scars on our hearts
We're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again

I'm sorry I don't understand
Where all of this is coming from
I thought that we were fine
(Oh, we had everything)
Your head is running wild again
My dear we still have everythin'
And it's all in your mind
(Yeah, but this is happenin')

You've been havin' real bad dreams, oh, oh
You used to lie so close to me, oh, oh
There's nothing more than empty sheets
Between our love, our love
Oh, our love, our love

Just give me a reason
Just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
I never stopped
You're still written in the scars on my heart
You're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again

Oh, tear ducts can rust
I'll fix it for us
We're collecting dust
But our love's enough
You're holding it in
You're pouring a drink
No nothing is as bad as it seems
We'll come clean

Just give me a reason
Just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
It's in the stars
It's been written in the scars on our hearts
That we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
