One of the reasons why Jason Mraz is one of my favorite artists ever is because he's such a great musician and songwriter. There are so many lines from his songs which I can quote from. What are your favorite ones? I have a couple, but here's one of my favorites from "You and I Both": and it's okay if you have to go away just remember the telephone works both ways and if I never ever hear it ring if nothing else I'll think the bells inside have finally found you someone else and that's okay cause I'll remember everything you sang.

you and i both... Was it you who spoke the words that things would happen but not to me? Oh, things are gonna happen naturally Oh, taking your advice and I'm looking on the bright side And balancing the whole thing Oh, but at often times those words get tangled up in lines And the bright light turns to night Oh, until the dawn it brings Another day to sing about the magic that was you and me 'Cause you and I both loved What you and I spoke of And others just read of Others only read of the love or the love that I love See, I'm all about them words Over numbers, unencumbered numbered words Hundreds of pages, pages, pages forwards More words then I had ever heard and I feel so alive 'Cause you and I both loved What you and I spoke of And others just read of And if you could see me now, Oh, love, love, you and I, you and I Not so little you and I anymore, mm mm And with this silence brings a moral story more importantly evolving is the glory of a boy 'Cause you and I both loved what you and I spoke of and others just read of and if you could see now well then I'm almost finally out of Finally ou-ou-out of Finally din-di-di-dit-dit-dee Well, I'm almost finally finally, well I am free, oh, I'm free And it's okay if you had to go away Oh, just remember the telephones, well they work in both ways But if I never, ever hear them ring If nothing else I'll think the bells inside have finally found you someone else and that's okay 'cause I'll remember everything you sang 'Cause you and I both loved what you and I spoke of and others just read of and if you could see now well then I'm already finally out of Finally ou-ou-out of Finally did-di-di-dit-dit-dee Well, I'm almost finally finally, well, out of words.

This time like every other time I believe that I never find Another sweet little girl with sequined sea foam eyes Ocean lapping voice smile coy as the brightest quiet span of sky And I'm all alone again tonight not again, not again, not again.

I like the line " It's your God forsaken right to be loved, loved, loved, loved, loved!" I wonder how it feels like if you have not felt love ever. It must be really devastating.

The lines of his songs are not too deep that would require enough analysis. The lyrics are very simple and self explanatory. I love the melody of his songs and the way he plays with the pronunciation of the words. Here are my favorite lyrics of his songs: From The Remedy: When I fall in love, I'll take my time. There's no need to hurry when I'm making up my mind. You can turn off the sun, but I'm still gonna shine. From I'm yours: Well Open up your mind and see like me. Open up your plans and damn you're free Look into your heart and you'll find love There's no need to complicate coz our time is short This is our faith.. I'm yours.
