Anthony J. Shears - 50 Ways [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Verse 1
If...
True love burns the brightest
Why do we fight it?
Step in the club with sunglasses on
Trying to hide it
...It hurts a nigga to write it
To hear nothing but cheers, but know that you standing silent
One eye open’s all it takes to meet the right one
Two eyes closed is all it takes to keep the night young
And despite ummm...
Us being quite young
I was your Knight in shining armor til the night come
Or till that night came
Then the fight came
And then the flight came
You said it might rain...
...Then it rained for 40 nights
Shame... All over my face because I knew right then our life changed
Love often ends in Pain but never in reverse
The tears I shed writing this verse only made it worse
...Life’s too short to think about a redo
And LOVE doesn’t us cause pain
Baby we do

Chorus
She said why don't we both just sleep on it tonight
And I believe in the morning you'll begin to see the light
And then she kissed me and I realized she probably was right
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Fifty ways to leave your lover

Verse 2
A woman can never say it
A man never knows how
We get so caught up in Love
(That) We only see here and now
We only see how we feel
And we never know how it ends
We rarely know how to fix what we break
Or how to mend
Our friends give us advice that they would never pretend
To take
It’s a shame how it breaks in the bitter end
First it feels so right
Then it all goes wrong
You just want to work it out
But walkings what makes you strong
...Or so that’s what you’ve been told
You sick of the night’s that’s cold
You sick of not having your special someone for you to hold
He’s sick of playing the field
He’s looking for something real
But you both been thru so much
That you barely know how to feel
… but on and on and on
Watch the world spin
Love’s a Tempest
And you’re caught up in its whirlwind
Life’s too short to think about a redo
And LOVE doesn’t cause us pain
Baby we do

Chorus
She said why don't we both just sleep on it tonight
And I believe in the morning you'll begin to see the light
And then she kissed me and I realized she probably was right
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Fifty ways to leave your lover

Verse 3
Here’s a message to the lovers
If you love one another
Then... love one another
And just be there for each other
There’s a million ways to leave
But only one way to stay
You decide it in your heart
No matter what nobody say (2x)

Chorus
She said why don't we both just sleep on it tonight
And I believe in the morning you'll begin to see the light
And then she kissed me and I realized she probably was right
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Fifty ways to leave your lover
