When I first heard Colbie Caillat‘s “Bubbly,” I kind of thought, ugh – another pop princess wannabe. Her next song, “The Little Things,” which will be included on the Cities 97 Sampler, Volume 19 CD (available on Nov. 15), has a bit more meaning and shows Caillat’s vast talent.
But of her songs getting airplay, “Realize” grabs me more than all the others. I think you’ll see why…
Lyrics
Take time to realize
That I am on your side
Didn’t I, didn’t I tell you
Take time to realize
That your warmth is
Crashing down on me
But I can’t spell it out for you
You no it’s never gonna be that simple
No I can’t spell it out for youIf you just realize
What I just realized
That we’d be perfect for each other
And we’ll never find another
Just realize
What I just realized
We’d never have to wonder
If we missed out on each other nowTake time to realize
Oh oh I’m on your side
Didn’t I, didn’t I tell you
Take time to realize
Oh oh I’m on your side
Didn’t I tell youBut I can’t spell it out for you
No it’s never gonna be that simple
No I can’t spell it out for youIf you just realize
What I just realized
That we’d be perfect for each other
And we’ll never find another
Just realize
What I just realized
We’d never have to wonder
If we missed out on each other, butIt’s not the same
No it’s never the same
If you don’t feel it too
If you meet me half way
If you would meet me half way
It could be the same for youIf you just realize
What I just realized
That we’d be perfect for each other
And we’ll never find another
Just realize
What I just realized
We’d never have to wonderIf you just realize
What I just realized
If you just realize
What I just realized
Oh, oh, we missed out on each other, now
We missed out on each other now
Yeah
