Music Monday: Why Don’t You & I by: Santana

Hi everyone!Β I’m here with another Music Monday. This meme was created by Drew @The Tattooed Book Geek.

I was going to start December with a Christmas jam, but this song came up in a playlist I was listening to last Friday and it just seemed fitting. Because it’s the most joyous time of the year, and a time to give back, I thought what better time than to dedicate a song to the creator of this meme?! I know, I’m so kind! (and just earlier today Drew told me my ‘kindness knows no bounds’ oh boy, was he right! 😜😊)

Now, of course I couldn’t dedicate any old song to Drew, it had to have his favourite person, a person he admires, a person he idolizes and looks up to: Chad Kroeger… and since he has a massive crush on Avril Lavgine that only made his idolization for Chad even larger! Drew, this one’s for you! πŸ’™πŸ˜˜

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜œ

I do like Santana, my favourite song being Smooth featuring Rob Thomas, but I know that Santana (nor Rob Thomas for that matter) aren’t from Canada, they’re from San Fransisco, (Rob from South Carolina) but I guess I can count Chad Kroeger as the Canadian aspect of my Music Monday πŸ™„πŸ˜

Lyrics:

Since the moment I spotted you
Like walking ’round with little wings on my shoes
My stomach’s filled with the butterflies (ooh) and it’s alright
Bouncin’ round from cloud to cloud
I got the feeling like I’m never gonna come down
If I said I didn’t like it then you’d know I’d lied
Every time I try to talk to you
I get tongue-tied
Turns out that everything I say to you
Comes out wrong and never comes out right
So I’ll say ‘why don’t you and I get together and take on the world and be together forever
Heads we will and tails we’ll try again
So I say why don’t you and I hold each other and fly to the moon and straight on to heaven
Cause without you they’re never going to let me in
Whens this fever gonna break?
I think I’ve handled more than any man can take
I’m like a love-sick puppy chasin’ you around
(Ooh)And it’s alright
Bouncin round from cloud to cloud
I got the feeling like I’m never gonna come down
If I said I didn’t like it then you’d know I’d lied
Every time I try to talk to you
I get tongue-tied
Turns out that everything I say to you
Comes out wrong and never comes out right
So I’ll say ‘why don’t you and I get together and take on the world and be together forever
Heads we will and tails we’ll try again
So I say why don’t you and I hold each other and fly to the moon and straight on to heaven
Cause without you they’re never going to let me in
And slowly I begin to realize this is never gonna end
Right about the same time you walk by
And I say ‘Oh here we go again’ oh
Every time I try to talk to you
I get tongue-tied
Turns out that everything I say to you
Comes out wrong and never comes out right
So I’ll say ‘why don’t you and I get together and take on the world and be together forever
Heads we will and tails we’ll try again
So I say why don’t you and I hold each other and fly to the moon and straight on to heaven
Cause without you they’re never going to let me in
So I’ll say ‘why don’t you and I get together and take on the world and be together forever
Heads we will and tails we’ll try again
So I say why don’t you and I hold each other and fly to the moon and straight on to heaven
Cause without you they’re never going to let me in
