“We have nothing to fear from commitment and love.”

New York State Senator Diane Savino speaks out in support of marriage equality on December 2, 2009. Thanks to Jason Mraz for posting this intelligent, inspiring, and thoughtful video on Twitter this afternoon!

Jason Mraz - If It Kills Me

I have to love this song. Why? Because the live Casa Nova Sessions performance was the song selection for my favorite So You Think You Can Dance performance last season. (You know, that ridiculously sexy one with Jason and SYTYCD Season Five champion, Jeanine. Did you miss it? Shame on you! Go watch it. Now. At the bottom of the post.) It’s also Jason Mraz - and who doesn’t love Jason Mraz? (If you don’t love him, don’t tell me, thankyouverymuch.) It has intense, well-written lyrics, which is truthfully one of the things I love about Mraz. And really, what’s not to like? Enjoy. :o) (And thanks, Calidre!

Jason Mraz - If It Kills Me

Jason Mraz - If It Kills Me

Hello, tell me you know
Yeah, you figured me out
Something gave it away
It would be such a beautiful moment
To see the look on your face
To know that I know that you know now

And baby that’s a case of my wishful thinking
You know nothing
Well you and I
Why, we go carrying on for hours, on and
We get along much better
Than you and your boyfriend

Well all I really wanna do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But I still can’t say it after all we’ve been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me

How long, can I go on like this,
Wishing to kiss you,
Before I rightly explode?
Well this double life I lead isn’t healthy for me
In fact it makes me nervous
If I get caught I could be risking it all

Cause maybe there’s a lot that I miss
In case I’m wrong

All I really wanna do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
But still can’t say it after all we’ve been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me
If it kills me

If I should be so bold
I’d ask you to hold my heart in your hand
I’d tell you from the start how I longed to be your man
But I never said a word
I guess I gonna miss my chance again

Well all I really wanna do is love you
A kind much closer than friends use
I still can’t say it after all we’ve been through
And all I really want from you is to feel me
As the feeling inside keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me
If it kills me
Oh, I think it might kill me

And all I really want from you is to feel me
It’s a feeling inside that keeps building
And I will find a way to you if it kills me
If it kills me
If it kills me
It might kill me
