"A kiss from a rose"

Recently I heard a song on the radio one day going to one of my graphic arts classes, I had heard it before but I never knew the lyrics or the meaning or who even sang it. Thank goodness for the app Sound Hound because I found who sang it and downloaded it to my phone. Now I know this is just a silly blog on a song but the more I listen to it the more it means to me in a lot of different ways. I think the lyrics that stick in my head most about this song is well, one, it is a beautiful song so beautiful each time I listen to it I fall into a trance
"baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray"
"Now that your rose is in bloom, a light hits the gloom on the gray"
"There is so much a man can tell you so much he can say, you remain my power, my pleasure, my pain"
In my opinion, because everyone could look at this song in different ways, to me this could mean a lot. It could mean life, new life. One tragedy or one bad life event can open the door to a better thing. There is always something bigger and better out there it is just up to us to go and find it.
And now that you have found this better thing, a light hits the gloom on the past.
Also, I can dedicate it to my fiance in a sense, he always brightens my mood no matter what life throws at me he is my light that hits the gloom.
I've always been that kind of person to listen to any kind of music and pick apart its meaning, what the singer or vocal artist is trying to say and see if I can find any personal meaning behind it for myself. In my opinion music is life and without music in life, it would be grey, meaningless, lifeless, and boring. Music is my savior when I don't need it, it listens when you need listened to, it can describe an emotion, it can bring back the good and the bad memories, it can spark an inspiration, it can bring you down , it can spark a motive, it can do anything, for me it's a solace. When I get stressed out I listen to things like this song, Phil Collins, Journey, positive classical music. When I am angry I listen to faster music like Metallica or Avenged Sevenfold. But of all the songs I have on my playlist to listen to on a daily basis, "A kiss from a rose"inspires me the most because in my opinion it is more than a song, it is a beautiful work of art.
