    "As I lay on my deathbed, looking down that long dreary hallwaty of life I leave behind, I just wish I spent less time snooping around, poking my head in doors and more time looking at what was right in fron of me."
    "What is that ? What was there ?"
    "Love. Love, Theodore. Cuz there's so much you can do in this life, that means nothing. But the one thing that means anything - and I'm sure of it now - is love. Love, Theodore. Love while you still can. Try to minimize all that bullshit they tell you do do, and just love. Cuz life...can be so damn complicated. And you just want to look around, and ask questions. You got no reason to ask questions, when you have something as inexplicable as love...cuz you know there's no answers."

    Well, they forgot
    This world keeps spinning, and with each new day
    I can feel a change in everything
    And as the surface breaks, reflections fade
    But in some ways, they remain the same
    And as my mind begins to spread its wings
    There's no stopping curiosity
    I want to turn the whole thing upside down
    I'll find the things they say just can't be found
    I'll share the love I find with everyone
    We'll sing and dance to Mother Nature's songs

    I found the video this song came from on Aug 23 2023. I loved it and went searching for this song which I found shortly after. At the time of writing it is Aug 31 2023.
    4 days after watching this video and 4 days before it popped back up in my recommended I lost my Dad to a massive heart attack.
    I'm not the superstitious type but I will admit that I find George's words very comforting right now.
    My Dad was nobody if not someone who could make you laugh or smile and I would like to think that he went to sleep that night knowing how much love he had put into the world and how much love we all had for him.
    He poured everything he had into giving me and my sisters the best life he could and by God did he do it.
    So to everybody out there who really needs to know what the meaning of life is or worry about how you'll be remembered; the answer is love.
    Because even though my Dad will never know his grandkids, they will know he was the best husband, father, brother, and friend anybody in our family had.
    You did good Dad. You did damn good.

    I think we're all just as lost in this sick little game. Because if you dig deep enough you get to the ultimate answer. And that is that there are no answers.
    As I lay on my deathbed looking down that long dreary hallway of life I leave behind, I just wish I spent less time snooping around, poking my head in doors, and more time looking at what was right in front of me: love.
    Love, Theodore.

      @davida6146 11 месяцев назад +39

      Well, the lyrics were always intentionally meant to be a bit melancholic. It's about being a kid with a curious mind and having the enthusiasm to solve and find things which people (adults) say can't be solved or found. The end of the song, the singer hopes that enthusiastic feeling never leaves them because they're finding that things aren't always what they seem. It's actually quite profound and this cover turned those lyrics into something more real and sad using the same words. I love this version too! In fact, Jack Johnson actually wrote the original version for a more grown audience. The original was called "Whos to say" and you can find it here on RUclips too.
