"I can't help feeling we could have had it all, rolling in the deep. You had my heart inside your hands, but you played it to the beat." -Adele
I heard this song a few weeks ago in the trailer for the movie I am Number Four. I tried countless times to find it and finally did so last week. I just love Adele! Never in a million years would I have believed that a British girl sang this! Her voice is so strong and powerful. I just love all the imagery she uses in the chorus. I think about greed when I picture rolling in the deep. Like, someone just won a whole crapload of money and they're rolling around in it. In this case the money is love. Whoever this song was about was love-hungry, and he didn't settle for just one woman, he wanted other lovers. He was a player and he played her heart to the beat. He could have had one love--one true love--all the love he needed, but he didn't think that would be enough.
