"Hive OpenMic #93
Hi everyone, Hope we are all doing well. There is no doubt we all had a great weak.
I m here with a rendition of a song I love way back as a child when Westlife was mostly on the screens and radios. I eventually found out the song was originally done by another group called the extreme.
The song fits the theme for this weeks hive Open mic, which is Hidden love.
The title of the song is MORE THAN WORDS by Extreme
Yeah its a bit oldschool,but evergreen for me. Please holla if you knew the song too.
As a child I knew what the song meant, that word alone cannot portray love, Words spoken should actually be backed up by actions however, our world has made statements like " I LOVE YOU" to mean almost nothing.
HIDDEN LOVE
I dont think true love can really be hidden, what seem to happen is that it wont be expressed, but it does show.
I have met 2 classes of people.
SOme want to be told they are loved, no matter what, others believe that if you love them, you ll show it beyond just your words.
Read about the 5 love languages from several books, and words of affirmations comes key amongst others like giving and touch, quality time and acts of service.
Love should never be hidden, it should be expressed, and that beyond words.
One of the limitations of love being expressed is unrequited love. People feel ashamed to express love when they are not sure if it will be returned.
Lyrics
Saying "I love you"
Is not the words I want to hear from you
It's not that I want you
Not to say but if you only knew
How easy, it would be to show me how you feel
More than words is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
'Cause I'd already know
What would you do
If my heart was torn in two?
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say
If I took those words away?
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying "I love you"
Now that I've tried to
Talk to you and make you understand
All you have to do is close your eyes
And just reach out your hands and touch me
Hold me close, don't ever let me go
More than words is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
'Cause I'd already know
What would you do
If my heart was torn in two?
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say
If I took those words away?
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying "I love you"
Its more than words
Its more than
What you say
Its the things you do.
QUESTION
Question here is , Does love have to reciprocal? and does it matter if it was expressed?
I hope to get some reply from you please.
Thanks for watching.

👆👆👆👆👆 it kind of happened to me and I'll talk about it in my presentation this week, I'm uploading the video already; Brother I liked your version, it's such a famous song that people still listen to it and remember it, I listened to the one by Extreme and then the one Westlife did. Good job Bro 👊😎🔥🎙️🎸🎶❤️🌟🍻💥💫💯
Thank @fernanblog
I can't wait to see your story, heading there now in fact.
Yeah.. I had an experience too and I was hoping to share it in the comment section.
For me it was a bit shameful having expressed it, I felt bad that they didnt feel the way I felt. 🤧
They just like me and being around me.. Lol.
I had to know I wasn't a toy, I was probably too good and the goodies were always around me.
I chose to restrain some goodness and be a bit more straight, but that too wasn't so much helpful.. It felt like I was forcing being who I wasn't.
I ve chosen to be myself, and love myself as well as I wanna love anyone now. I don't hide it tho. I make sure I express it one way or the other.
That you have decided is well done, the idea is not to be restricted but also not to be so open, everything is a balance and we must always be in the game, because there will always be someone behind the person we are interested in, that is mathematical hehehe, we must give our best and love without exceeding self-love, we can not and should not go beyond certain limits that can be more harmful than the relationship itself, thanks for this conversation Bro, it's great 🙌😎🔥🌟❤️🍻💥💯
My brothers listened to Westlife and all that old school stuff.
I never paid attention to lyrics as a kid😀
I was either playing my flute or my mouth organ or banging some plastic plates as drums.
It's now I'm getting to pay attention to lyrics.
Yes, Love should be reciprocal! Love should be freely expressed, but it's truly felt when it's reciprocal.
I agree with you chief.
Muy buena tu entrada felicitaciones amigo!!
Thanks So much my friend.
You may have mistakenly unfollowed me 🙏🏽❤
How much I like this song, More Than Words.
I remember we were in secondary school and in one of the lessons we have some time left... the English teacher asked if someone wants to sing something in English, out of the curriculum. One guy sang this song, we were all amazed :))
Wow..
I can imagine how amazed the girls especially must have been😂😂😂😃😃
He must have won some hearts..did he?
Hahhahha, he absolutely did 😂
Felicitaciones amigo bonita interpretacion
Garcias mi amigo @sandracast
