Have you ever heard somebody sing some lyrics that you've never sung before, and you realize you've never sung the right words in that song? You hear them and all of a sudden you say to yourself, 'Life in the Fast Lane?' That's what they're saying right there? You think, 'why have I been singing 'wipe in the vaseline?' how many people have heard me sing 'wipe in the vaseline?' I am an idiot. Ellen DeGeneres
About This Quote

The point is, you are not alone in feeling like an idiot when it comes to love. When you feel like you are singing the wrong lyrics to your song, you are not alone. So many people sing in tune with themselves in their heads, but when they come out of their heads and into the world in front of people, they can't sing at all. This is one of the most common feelings I hear from people in relationships early on in their relationship. They feel like they have no idea what they are doing when it comes to love, yet they are completely clueless with anyone else who has ever been in a relationship before.
