seasons of love

last night, mike asked me to read the lyrics and listen to "seasons of love." found out that the song is from the musical "rent" and a cover was done by the cast of glee to pay tribute to cory monteith.

i am not a fan of glee. neither have i tried to watch an episode, but grief over a death and music are universal languages.

it's a beautiful song. the words are simple, yet they convey what probably is the most essential thing in life: measure a year in seasons of love!

my favorite lines:

"Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure, measure a year?

In daylights, in sunsets
In midnights, in cups of coffee
In inches, in miles, in laughter and in strife
In five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure, a year in the life?

 

How about love?"
