Roll With It
Heart Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Have you been looking at the sun too long?
You make it hard to tell
But I suspect they're wrong to think that's all it is
To think that's all it is
And while the facts of this are hard to prove
I know the weight of it is difficult to move
Cause you know
You can always leave it with me
You can always leave it with me
I know you're feeling like you've failed
And that it's more than just a paper trail
But we'll draw up some new lines
And fold on the crease and time
Will strengthen the new game
We've turned them into paper planes
And then one after one
We'll fling them before the sun
And watch as they come undone
So bring the burden of truth to my door
We'll help you get it there and not a footstep more
Cause you know
That you can always leave it with me
You can always leave it with me
You can always leave it with me
You can always leave it




You can always leave it
You can always leave it with me

I really like them. I looked up the meaning of Melange and it derives from the Middle French verb mesler, which means "to mix." So that explains the mix of colors, but looked further under what it means for clothing. It said that it was yarn of either different colors (mix/medley) spun together or a mix of different fibers spun together. I thought it was cool to look up why they named it that.

Also, it said that India was the first to begin this in 1980. I like how all the color names are related to show biz. Hope this wasn't too boring. I find it interesting. Thanks for doing a review on it Crystal. ๐Ÿ™‚๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿงถ๐Ÿงถ

I always do the same, I do a search of meanings of the names of the yarn, people's names and what they, mean and where the name originates from, and how to pronounce the person's name and words. I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS YARN AND I WILL BE GETTING SOME WHEN GOD ALMIGHTY PROVIDES FOR ME, AS HE ALWAYS DOES BY WHAT MEANS OF AVENUES HE WILL AND HAS AWAYS BEEN DOING. I SO VERY MUCH DIS-LIKE THE 'ROLL WITH IT' WITH THE COLOURED THREAD, OR WHATEVER THEY WRAP AROUND THE YARN---I JUST DO NOT LIKE ANY OF THOSE AT ALL. THESE I ABSOLUTELY LOVE. THE LORD Bless you my Dear in, of ALL THINGS, EVERY PART OF YOUR LIFE MUST ABUNDANTLY. HAVE A VERY BLESSED CROCHETING DAY, HON.

I just discovered this yarn, searching for something to make a colorful dress, that wasn't traditional variegated or ombre. I Love This Yarn! It's everything I was looking for. It's light, doesn't split, and the blending of the colors is just gorgeous. Can't wait to see my finished project.

@christyfrick2047

I havent tried it but i love that you teach me the different yarns. Ive learned so much so thank you so much.

@tommyebravocrochetprojects2781

I have not seen this yarn yet. Very pretty, I'll look for it. I'll check for it. .Thanks always appreciate your yarn reviews. ๐Ÿ˜Š

@Southsidesocialworker

Iโ€™m finishing a triangle scarf with Theater. Love this yarn. Itโ€™s even better than Unforgettable to me because the thickness is more even throughout and it doesnโ€™t get as fuzzy. Iโ€™ll be making more scarves to sell this fall.

@honibear6478

Iโ€™ve seen this yarn loved the colors but havenโ€™t tried it yet. I for one really appreciate your yarn reviews thanks for doing them. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ˜€

@knottedgypsy2886

This is an absolute dream to work with. I actually used it in your Queen poncho and it worked up beautifully!

@auntbess3238

Iโ€™m currently using the purple one to make a triangle scarf and Iโ€™m having no problems with it. The colors are gorgeous! Planning on getting more when I run errands soon.

@myleerose31866
