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.

it takes no time to fall in love but it takes years to know what love is----- Jason Mraz

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.
