I watched Wicker Park 2 days ago alone in the middle of the night at about 2 in the morning. My wife didn’t want to watch it with me because it was a little too late…well, yes, it was hella late because I ended up going to bed right after the sun came up.

I don’t know if it’s that time of night or the style of the movie itself that’s so… haunting.

Who’s to say that this woman hasn’t been in love with you for a really long time?
And now that she found you again, she wasn’t about to let you go twice.

It’s not about how Lisa is the love of his life, or how much Matthew loves Lisa that make him so obsessed with her even after she vanished from his life for 2 years.
It’s the longing, the yearning, the questions that needed to be answered that made him kept searching and probably did things without thinking twice.

Last scene at the airport tells it all. Thanks to Coldplay, too.

Come up to meet you, Tell you I’m sorry, You don’t know how lovely you are

I had to find you, Tell you I need you, Tell you I set you apart

Tell me your secrets, And ask me your questions, Aww let’s go back to the start

Runnin’ in circles, [sounds like] Comin’ our tails, Heads on the science apart

Nobody said it was easy
It’s such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Aww take me back to the start

I was just guessin’, At numbers and figures, Pullin’ the puzzles apart

Questions of science, Science and progress, Do not speak as loud as my heart

Tell me you love me, Come back to haunt me, Oh when I rush to the start

Runnin’ in circles, [sounds like] Chasin’ our tails, Comin’ back as we are

Nobody said it was easy
Aww It’s such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I’m goin’ back to the start
