Assignment 9 - Music Video


Why are you sharing this song?

It was when I watched the trailer of "The Great Gatsby" that I heard this song for the first time.
The leisurely and a little bit of sadness make the song very intriguing to me, and the voice of the singer is so beautiful that I can't help but listen to it over and over again. Also, the words express such a sorrow of no longer being young are so touching. 


What is the meaning of the lyrics?

The song is about a woman who love her man deeply but is sad about not being young any longer. She has been though all ups and downs in her life and seen all kinds of things. "I've seen the world, done it all" she sings, which expresses the years she's been through. "The way you'd play with me like a child." reminds her of the early days and memories of the lovers. "Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful?" She doubts whether her man will love her forever or not, but she then answers herself "I know that you will" to trust the man. She loves the man so much that she sings "he's my sun, he makes me shine like diamond"
