Does anyone know the meaning behind th song unwritten by natasha bedingfield??

Question

any answers or guesses will help thanks!!

Answer 1

She sings about the life, unwritten book of life!

It means that if you still haven’t found who you really are, what you love and what you want from future, your life is still unwritten. You need to enjoy your life to the fullest:

“Feel the rain on your skin, no one else can feel it for you. Only you can let it in. No one else, no one else can speak the words on your lips…. today is when your book begins.”

;o)

Answer 2

Unwritten Lyrics

Answer 3

I'm not sure it's possible to find too much meaning in Natasha Bedingfield lyrics, but I guess overall she's saying that she has lived only part of her life and still has much more time and opportunity to experience things?

Answer 5

Thought I'd give it a shot.

- I am unwritten, can't read my mind, I'm undefined
- I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand, ending unplanned
- Staring at the blank page before you

"Writer's Block", the narrator is uncertain about itself and is relying on the other person to help create her. (I say her for the singer is female, but gender should not be assumed).

- Open up the dirty window

"Dirty windows are very difficult to see through, and if the sun is shinning through, can be blinding for it fills the window, so assuming she is refering to the writer, the one she relies on to not be able to see what he needs to see for everything currently is 'cloudy'; confusing, unable to see the forest through the trees."

- Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

"When she 'opens the window' to do 'illuminate the words' I think this is refering to opening his eyes, revealing to the writer what her intentions are, what she feels about the writer, or guides the writer in a little insight as to what she wants him to see."

CHORUS 1
- Reaching for something in the distance
- So close you can almost taste it
- Release your inhibitions
- Feel the rain on your skin

(Ok, this chorus reminds me of what the song is musically now LOL)

"Reaching, he trying, distance, her? So close, he's almost breaking through, release inhibitions, at this point I thought 'stop being shy'. Feel rain, just open up to her view, way."

CHORUS 2
- No one else can feel it for you
- Only you can let it in
- No one else, no one else
- Can speak the words on your lips
- Drench yourself in words unspoken
- Live your life with arms wide open
- Today is where your book begins

"Basically, I took it as release your old way of thinking and look at the way she sees things her way and adopt them."

- The rest is still unwritten

"Where we go from here, is a futuristic, 'we'll see'"

- Oh, oh, oh

- I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines
- We've been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can't live that way

"Something I was surprised to see in the song but what I was getting from in the beginning. She looks at life differently and she likes the writer and wants them to see things her way and not through the norms of society."

- Staring at the blank page before you
- Open up the dirty window
- Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

"A plea from her for the 'writer' to see things her way"

CHORUS 1

CHORUS 2

- Feel the rain on your skin

CHORUS 2

- Staring at the blank page before you
- Open up the dirty window
- Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

CHORUS 1

CHORUS 2

- Feel the rain on your skin

CHORUS 2

- The rest is still unwritten
- The rest is still unwritten
- The rest is still unwritten

"Their lives together are uncertain, but they can create it together"

- Oh, yeah, yeah


Ok so after picking this apart. This just reminds me for some reason of Mellisa Etheridge and her "Come to my window" tune. Which I dangerously conclude this.

The writer is a lesbian and wants the writer, who is a 'traditional' woman to break through the pressures of conservatism to become 'like her.' Or basically, her lover.

I have not said this to offend anyone but this does not seem to be a guy that she is singing this to. If she is, she is looking at him to do things in a feminine way, or obviously, a feminine point of view, but the song seems to have underlined message towards a woman and not a man.

Answer 6

It's about life and that no one can write the story of your life for you it can take you anywhere just like a book.
