Music and Lyrics

This is one of the best films I've ever seen.
It's the story about an old pop legend (Hugh Grant) who wants to become famous again. He needs Susan's help to do it (Drew Barrimore). They invent a song togheter and finally both fall in love.
Trailer


I've watched the film in Spanish but I think it woud be better to watch it in English. It seems that it won't be so difficult to understand it.
The thing I like the most are the songs, they are fantastic and they are easy to understand.

Way back into love is the most important song of the film, however, all the film turns around this song.

(Drew Barrymore)
I've been living with a shadow overhead,
I've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed,
I've been lonely for so long,
Trapped in the past,
I just can't seem to move on!

(Hugh Grant)
I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away,
Just in case I ever need them again someday,
I've been setting aside time,
To clear a little space in the corners of my mind!

[Chorus]
(Both)
All I wanna do is find a way back into love.
I can't make it through without a way back into love.
Oooooh.
[...]



There are more songs that are fantastic in that film, but I want you to know only one more, it's not important in the story but it's very unusual and I want to show you what a fantastic song is this!

Pop! Goes my heart
