I think Mraz is an awesome lyricist.
Accompanied by his nature for kickass soul soaring melodies. How can someone not love him? I melt over and over again just listening to him. That smooth voice, the cheeky smile. Mraz, you're a wonder :)
Mix and mingle, is everybody ready for the single.
Yet, amidst music for the soul, there's a corner in you that fails to catch onto the light. Could it be the daily responsibilities that you would rather ignore? Maybe just the sense of longing for comfort. Maybe, just both.

I did something so embarrassing today I could feel my face turn hot the moment it was discovered. Seriously, I just felt like digging a hole and never coming out of it anymore. Yesterday, it was a bold move. Today, it's something utterly stupid. The things we do out of sheer curiosity and want. Really stupid but it didn't turn out that bad because I'm anticipating good returns in the weeks to come, that is if God is in favor of me carrying on through with this.

Running my mind over same issues that never held much significance in the first place. They call you a noxious being; only capable of harm like it's your middle name. You were like my personal brand of drug-- utterly satisfactory but ultimately deadly. I was so afraid I'd never entirely wash you off. I still count the days, but I count them with pride-- proud of living another day without you.
Him: I love you.
Her: You've probably loved a lot of girls.
Just as long as I'm the last one you do.
