Uninvited

These words have resonated with me since the first time I heard them. They touch my soul in a way that is hard to describe. Plus, the melody is so haunting and powerful. It's so simple with only about three chords. But it's one of my favorite songs.

artist: Alanis Morissette
title: Uninvited


Like anyone would be
I am flattered by your fascination with me
Like any hot-blooded woman
I have simply wanted an object to crave
But you, you're not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight

Must be strangely exciting
To watch the stoic squirm
Must be somewhat heartening
To watch shepherd lead shepherd
But you you're not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight

Like any uncharted territory
I must seem greatly intriguing
You speak of my love like
You have experienced love like mine before
But this is not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight

I don't think you unworthy
I need a moment to deliberate
